Redshift CO2 Laser Cutting Heads Options

co2 laser dual head single gantry

Core Features

Structure:

Dual cutting heads share a single gantry, requiring synchronized movement.

Advantages:

Efficient cutting of small, regular patterns: Ideal for dense arrangements of garment trims (e.g., lace, mesh ventilation holes).

Typical Applications

Garment Fabrics​​:

Lace cutting (0.5mm thickness).

Silk/chiffon lace patterns (50mm-wide repeating units).

Trims Processing​​:

Non-woven fabric ventilation holes (2mm diameter array).

Hook-and-loop tape slotting.

Sandpaper Cutting​​: Fine-grain sandpaper (P120-P400) linear slitting (width ≤10mm).

Motion Space Calculation (1.6m Width)

Head Spacing​​:  0.8m evenly distributed to cover the full width.

Efficiency Example​​: Cutting lace mesh (10mm repeat unit) achieves 2x efficiency compared to single-head systems.

2. Dual-head Dual Gantry

Core Features

Structure: Two independent gantries with asynchronous parameter control.

Advantages: Large-format complex pattern handling: Suitable for irregular garment designs (e.g., asymmetric skirts, artistic prints).

Multi-material hybrid cutting: Simultaneous cutting of thin fabrics and thick trims.

Disadvantages: Higher cost – Complex dual-gantry mechanics increase purchasing cost

Typical Applications

Large Garment Designs: Wedding dresses/gowns (3D structured patterns, 1.6m×3m width).

Sportswear Cutting: Freeform layout cutting without restrictions.

Dynamic Coverage Mode​​: Gantry 1 covers 0.0–0.8m (fabrics); Gantry 2 covers 0.8–1.6m (trims).

Efficiency Example: Cutting asymmetric dresses (lace + chiffon) achieves 3x efficiency improvement.

3. Quad-head Single Gantry

Core Features

Structure​​:

Four cutting heads on a lightweight single gantry, optimized for high-density cutting.

​​Advantages​​:

Rapid slitting of small, regular patterns: Ideal for mass-producing trims (e.g., elastic bands, edge trim decorations).

High-density pattern coverage: Lace mesh (≤1mm holes), sandpaper linear slitting (width ≤5mm).

​​Disadvantages​​:

Low flexibility: Unable to handle large irregular patterns.

Reduced speed: Four heads on one gantry compromise cutting velocity.

Typical Applications

​Garment Trims​​:

Elastic band slitting (10mm width, 30m/min speed).

Edge trim decorative patterns.

​​Sandpaper Cutting​​:

Fine-grain sandpaper (P240-P600) precision slitting (width ≤3mm).

​​Lace Processing​​:

Dense mesh arrays (50×50 holes/m²).

Motion Space Calculation (1.6m Width)

Head Spacing Optimization​​:

​​Uniform Mode​​: 0.4m spacing for full-width coverage (elastic band slitting).

​​Overlap Mode​​: 0.3m spacing for lace micro-hole arrays (reduces edge misses).

​​Efficiency Example​​:

Slitting elastic bands (10mm width) achieves 4x efficiency with ​​Redshift Laser​​ dynamic focusing (60% speed boost).

5. Selection Guide

Dual-head Single Gantry

Use Case​​: Small-batch, high-density trim cutting (e.g., lace mesh, elastic slitting).

​​Pitfall Alerts​​: Avoid for large-scale bridal/gown cutting sheets.

Dual-head Dual Gantry

Use Case​​: Large complex designs (e.g., asymmetrical gowns, 3D panels).

Quad-head Single Gantry

Use Case​​: Mass production of ultra-dense patterns (e.g., edge trim, sandpaper slitting).

Final Recommendation

Mass-produced Trims​​ → Quad-head Single Gantry (e.g., 30m/min elastic slitting).

​​Complex Garment Designs​​ → Dual-head Dual Gantry (supports irregular shapes and mixed materials).

​​Cost-effective Trim Processing​​ → Dual-head Single Gantry (optimal for lace/mesh at lowest cost).
