Generally anything above 5mm in thickness.
The rapidly growing science of laser cutting is dominated by two main methods carbon dioxide co2 laser cutting and fiber laser cutting.
The main disadvantages that a fiber laser faces in comparison to a co2 laser relates to cutting speeds of thicker materials.
Co2 laser compatible materials.
17 4 ph stainless steel.
Cutting carbon fiber with a laser cutter.
This results in a very poor cut line and very few broken fibers.

Here are the advantages and disadvantages of a co2 laser which will cover many of the points above as a direct comparison.
The laser melts the epoxy much faster than it can have an impact on the carbon fibers.
Always remember to use safety protection when cutting our material.
For those that were wondering fibre.
Both processes offer increased precision and versatility for shops of all sizes and the technology is continually evolving toward improved precision easier use and greater flexibility.
Laser cutting carbon fiber can be done with either a co 2 laser or a fiber laser but the highest quality cut is achieved when using multiwave hybrid technology which combines a 10 6 micron wavelength co 2 laser beam and a 1 06 micron fiber laser beam into a single hybrid laser beam.
The issue is not everyone has access to this kind of technology so if you can t do this you are stuck with no.
There have been some high quality carbon fiber cuts.
See the results in person by getting a free brochure with laser cut and engraved samples.
But there is one more thing.
Do not use a laser cutter as it will not work any carbon fiber.
