A Laser cutter is a machine tool that uses a laser to cut a workpiece such as ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, stone, plastics, rubber, ceramics, and many other soft materials. A laser cutter works by focusing a high power laser beam at a specific location on the surface of the workpiece. The energy in the laser beam is absorbed into the surface of the workpiece, and converted into heat. The energy density in the laser beam is extremely high, it is enough to melt or vaporize the surface of the workpiece. The melting surface will be propagated until the workpiece is cut through.
