  • Product Description
CW-6050PZ Polyimide Film Laser Processing Machine | Chanxan Laser

Cold Laser Processing for Polyimide Film

Polyimide (PI) film is widely used in flexible circuits, insulation layers, coverlays, and high-temperature electronic components due to its excellent dielectric strength, thermal resistance, and dimensional stability. However, conventional die cutting and mechanical punching often cause burrs, edge deformation, tool wear, and limited flexibility for complex geometries. Chanxan's polyimide film laser processing machine uses ultrashort-pulse laser technology to achieve high-precision non-contact cutting, drilling, and window opening on PI films with minimal thermal impact. It helps manufacturers produce cleaner edges, finer features, and more consistent results for high-value flexible electronic applications.
