Technology Precise glass cutting has become increasingly important through a cross section of industries, from mobile phone makers to medical machinery. Companies need to have their materials accurately cut with specific thickness and consistent strength. It needs be produced very quickly so that they can be used in their products. Lemi, a leading company in laser cutting and scribing, has developed a machine which uses its laser technology to do both. It is able to cut glass precisely and efficiently while minimizing the amount of waste produced during the process. it works by cutting the glass after it has been heated allowing it to be cut specific width and shape and design while maintaining structure. The company is planning to develop a machine which can cut even more accurately. Because of the laser's pin point accuracy it is able cut consistent thickness levels needed for products and is more reliable than its diamond cutting machine counterparts.
