The Big Problem with Carbon Fiber Cutting

Do you need carbon fiber parts? Are you stuck with poor cuts? Many shops can’t cut carbon fiber right. This makes bad parts that break too fast.

Carbon fiber is super strong but very hard to cut. When you try to cut it, these bad things happen:

• Frayed edges that look ugly
• Weak spots that break easy
• Toxic dust that makes you sick
• Wasted money on parts that fail

Many people try to use cheap lasers like the K40 (40W). But these fail completely even on thin 1mm sheets!

Why This Gets Worse

Bad carbon fiber cuts can:

1. Stop your project when parts don’t fit
2. Make your products look unprofessional
3. Cause safety problems when parts break
4. Waste your money on do-overs

Even worse, the wrong cutting method makes harmful fumes. The dust from carbon fiber can hurt your lungs very bad.

When you use a 80W CO₂ laser, it might work but needs many tries. Tests show it works only 60% of the time on 3mm sheets.

The Solution: Our Expert Carbon Fiber Manufacturing

With 28+ years making carbon fiber parts, we solved these problems. Our China factory uses the best technology to make perfect carbon fiber parts every time.

Our custom carbon fiber service gives you:

• Perfect cuts with no frayed edges
• Strong parts that last longer
• Fast delivery to save you time
• Fair prices to save you money

How We Cut Carbon Fiber The Right Way

We use these top methods to make your parts perfect:

1. Blue Laser Technology

Our blue laser systems cut with 95% success rate on first try!

Why it works better:

• Makes smooth edges you can touch safely
• Cuts with high precision (within 0.1mm)
• No heat damage to the carbon fiber

2. CNC Waterjet Cutting

For thick carbon fiber (over 10mm), we use water cutting.

Benefits for you:

• No heat damage at all
• Can cut very thick pieces
• Makes perfect edges every time

3. Expert Hand Finishing

All parts get checked and finished by our skilled team.

This means:

• No sharp edges that can cut you
• Perfect fit in your final product

Common Questions About Carbon Fiber Cutting

Can any laser cut carbon fiber?

No. Small CO₂ lasers like K40 (40W) can’t cut even 1mm carbon fiber. You need special lasers like our blue laser system or high-power fiber lasers.

Is waterjet better than laser for carbon fiber?

Yes, for thick carbon fiber (over 5mm), waterjet is better. It causes no heat damage and makes cleaner cuts. For thin parts, our blue laser works best.

How precise are your carbon fiber cuts?

Our cuts are precise to ±0.1mm. This is much better than the industry standard of ±0.5mm.

Is carbon fiber cutting toxic?

Yes, it can be. We use special systems to catch all dust and fumes to keep our workers safe and make clean parts.
