Contract manufacturing of textile laser cutting
The Laser 3XL Conveyor impresses right from the start. The non-contact cutting achieves high dimensional accuracy with a perfectly welded cutting edge. Even complicated shapes can be implemented easily.
But as we all know, pictures and videos say more than 1000 words, which is why you can see for yourself the power of our Laser 3XL Conveyor in this video.

Advantages of laser cutting fabrics
- Time savings: Laser cutting speeds up fabric cutting significantly compared to traditional methods.
- Quality assurance: The synchronous conveyor technology ensures consistently high quality
- Repeatability: This leads to more consistent products, especially in mass production.
- Contactless method: The fabric is not touched directly, reducing maintenance and wear and increasing efficiency. This means there is no distortion of the fabric.
- Reduced post-processing: The laser seals the edge of the fabric as it cuts, preventing fraying and requiring fewer post-processing steps.
- Cut-and-seal process: Hot-melted, clean and frayed cut edges save work steps during further processing
- Textile-friendly work: Every cm of the material to be cut is used and precise cutting of complex patterns or templates also works easily with digital cutting patterns.
Questions and answers about laser cutting of textiles
How does laser cutting of natural and synthetic textiles and fabrics work
In contrast to cutting with knives or scissors, the CO2 fabric laser cutter works without contact. The laser head is positioned away from the material and the laser beam is aligned so that it cuts through fabrics and leather, for example.
An operator calls up the digital cutting in the processing program and starts the cutting process at the push of a button. After automatic unwinding, the fabric or textile to be cut is placed flat on the processing surface of the laser machine and sucked in and fixed using a vacuum.
One person monitors the process and either removes the finished cut parts directly from the table or sorts them from the collection container set up at the end.

How efficient is textile laser cutting?
Laser cutting of textiles and fabrics is fast and precise.
For example, the software integrated into the laser ensures the exact positioning of the laser head and thus enables perfect laser cutting of fabrics based on the cutting file.

How quickly can inquiries and orders be processed?
We check each type of fabric carefully and respond quickly. Contract manufacturing is for A.B.S. simply another part of the company, so that you can rely on the processing capacity of the entire A.B.S. being able to leave.
Fast and reliable processing of inquiries and orders is part of the success story in our 40-year company history.

Up to what width can textiles be cut with such a laser cutter?
Thanks to the automatic material feed, materials up to a width of 3,200 mm can be cut directly from the roll.
What laser power is possible?
The optimal power for cutting fabrics is usually between 100 and 150 watts. While a 100 watt laser uses around 30-40% of its power to cut fabric, more powerful lasers require relatively less power. The A.B.S. has a 400 watt laser.
How does the fabric laser cutter know how to cut?
The laser works with front-end software to control and control the laser system.
Do I have to wait until the entire roll has been cut before removing the parts?
No, workpieces can be removed from the specially installed removal table during the cutting process.
How is the material transported on the table?
The conveyor belt is an important part of the A.B.S. Conveyor system used and consists of a stainless steel rod mesh. It transports the roll material via vacuum to the processing process on the laser system. There is no fabric distortion when the material is fed stress-free.

We make it fit– since 1984
Since 1984, A.B.S. produces a variety of silo variants that offer customers endless options for storing bulk goods.
The founder’s idea back then was to use textiles instead of metal to build silos – just as stable and resilient, but significantly more sustainable and flexible. A design that was able to establish itself: today the name A.B.S. worldwide for high-quality, flexible silos with a service life of decades, used successfully around 100,000 times in industry, agriculture and in wood pellet storage.
With individual solutions tailored precisely to your requirements, we make it suitable – guaranteed.
Our specialty is tailor-made solutions for all bulk material handling issues relating to the storage, conveying, dosing or discharge of bulk materials. We rely on technical expertise through 3D planning and the use of the Euolaser, even for very large cuts.
Benefit from our approximately 40 years of experience as a manufacturer and planner, because this makes us a reliable production partner for our customers.
If you have any further questions or uncertainties, we are always there for you! Please feel free to ask us, we look forward to making you an individual offer!
