摘要
Laser cutting of medium density fibreboard (MDF) is a complicated process and the selection of the process parameters combinations is essential to get the highest quality cut section This paper presents a means for selecting the process parameters for laser cutting of MDF based on the design of experiments (DOE) approach A CO2 laser was used to cut three thicknesses 4 6 and 9 mm of MDF panels The process factors Investigated are laser power cutting speed air pressure and focal point position In this work cutting quality was evaluated by measuring the upper kerf width the lower kerf width the ratio between the upper kerf width to the lower kerf width the cut section roughness and the operating cost The effect of each factor on the quality measures was determined The optimal cutting combinations were presented in favours of high quality process output and in favours of low cutting cost (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
