1812 Four-Head Vision CO2 Laser Fabric Cutter

Vision Contour Cutting Applications

Use the 1812 four-head vision CO2 laser fabric cutter to locate printed graphics, embroidery or registration marks and generate contour-cut paths for qualified roll textiles. Four cutting heads can increase output on repeated layouts when head spacing, path assignment and material behavior are confirmed in a production test.

Apparel: printed sportswear, approved polyester and nylon, selected cotton blends, labels, appliqué and embroidery after sample qualification.
Home textiles: curtains, cushion covers and light furnishing fabrics whose fiber, coating and flame-retardant chemistry are documented.
Industrial textiles: filter media, air-duct fabric and technical laminates only after SDS, coating and fume review.
Transport interiors: approved trim, covers and prototype components; airbags, seat belts and other safety-critical parts require customer process validation.
Sports and outdoor goods: jerseys, flags, banners and known-composition fabrics; coated materials must be checked for PVC and other halogens.
Protective and regulated textiles: process only with engineering approval, traceable material data and application-specific acceptance criteria.

1812 Vision Cutter Specifications

The values below describe the 1800 × 1200 mm product family and must be reconciled with the final four-head layout, tube selection, controller, camera and site utilities in the signed quotation.

Production Advantages

Non-contact process: minimizes tool drag; conveyor tension and vacuum still require setup for elastic or lightweight fabric.
Material-dependent edge behavior: many thermoplastics can form a sealed edge, while natural fibers may char or require finishing.
Qualified textile range: process known-composition fabrics only after SDS review, fume assessment and sample cutting.
Repeatable roll workflow: feeding, imaging and path generation reduce manual alignment when the print and fabric remain within calibration limits.
Vision-assisted setup: contour extraction reduces drawing preparation, but operators must review scale, offsets, nesting and cut quality.

Material Qualification & Laser Safety

This is a Class 4 laser process. Review the exact fiber, dye, adhesive, coating and backing SDS before testing. Do not laser-process PVC, vinyl, PTFE, other halogenated materials, epoxy or phenolic laminates, unknown artificial leather, fiberglass or carbon-fiber composites. Use guarded access or a compliant enclosure, interlocks, wavelength-rated PPE, fire detection and response, trained operators, air assist and source-capture extraction sized for the process.

Qualified Materials

Typical candidates include documented polyester sportswear, nylon, selected cotton and cotton blends, denim, silk, lace, embroidery, felt, labels and approved nonwovens. Edge sealing, discoloration, shrinkage and fume behavior vary by construction, dye and finish; submit the production material for testing.

Qualified Industries

Suitable projects include apparel, dye-sublimation sportswear, embroidered patches, labels, soft signage, approved footwear textiles, plush-toy panels and selected home or industrial textiles. Regulated and safety-critical parts require customer-specific process validation.

Top-Vision CO₂ Contour-Cutting Solution

A calibrated top camera can locate printed or embroidered features and convert them into cut paths without requiring every contour to be manually redrawn. Cut quality still depends on the material, focus, air assist, extraction, tube power and validated settings.

The vision workflow supports full-field contour capture or registration-mark positioning according to the supplied software. Camera calibration, lighting, print distortion and conveyor tracking must be checked during acceptance.

Production Planning with Four Cutting Heads

Establish cycle time with the actual print, nesting, head spacing and validated cut settings.

Measure labor impact across loading, alignment, cutting, sorting, inspection and maintenance.

Calculate ROI from qualified throughput, utilization, scrap, consumables, labor and local operating costs.

Core Parts

Four-Head Cutting Layout

Configurable four-head production arrangement

Four cutting heads can process repeated contours or assigned zones when spacing, collision clearance, beam delivery and controller logic are matched to the job. Confirm whether the quoted system uses synchronized or independently assigned paths.

Automatic roll feeder for fabric laser cutter

Auto Feeder

The feeder advances qualified roll material onto the conveyor in coordination with the cutting cycle. Set roll tension, edge guidance, feed length and speed for the fabric; verify tracking over the intended production run before release.

Honeycomb Conveyor Table

The honeycomb conveyor supports flexible material while under-table airflow helps control lift and carries process fumes toward the extraction system. Exhaust volume, make-up air and filtration must be sized for the material and four-head production rate.
