Can you laser Ceramic tile
Can you laser Ceramic tile
(OP)
Newbie know I can etch it all day long. Can I cut thru it without in exploding with a 2500 watt Mazak laser using oxygen as my assit gas. Or do I need Nitrogen as a assit gas. Something my boss wants be to try but a little concern with the tile exploding from getting to hot. Know I can get it water jetted looking at a new challenge. Any help would be appreciated
thanks
thanks

But HenryRollins is right- CO2 lasers are very poor at cutting ceramics.
(I gnarled through some computer flooring once - two layers of CRS and about an inch of concrete - slow!)
