Parachute silk made of polyamide | Laser cutting

Cut with laser precision

Light, virtually airtight and colourful – typical properties of parachute silk. Nowadays these synthetic tissues which are made of polyamide fibres as well as Aramide and Dyneema tissues are coming into their own, along with other functional textiles, and being used for special applications. In the meantime they have become indispensable in many branches where they are used for such things as tent and kite manufacture, tracking accessories, paragliding, parachutes and much, much more. For over 10 years now eurolaser has been focussing its attention on cutting just such synthetic textiles with laser, with the result that the "hot cut" can now be found more and more often in such industrial manufacturing.
