Investigation of microscopic properties of some industrial wood species as a result of laser cutting

Abstract

In this study, the changes in microscopic structures of cellular anatomical structures of some wood species that are frequently used in industrial production as a result of CNC laser processing were investigated. For this purpose, laser cutting was performed on solid wood materials, using a CNC laser machine with a 130-watt carbon dioxide gas glass tube, using 70% watts, at a speed of 15mm/s parallel to and perpendicular to the fibers. The behavior of the cellular anatomical structures of different types of wood solid materials against laser processing was compared.
