Lasers, especially high-frequency excited, fast modulating CO2 lasers with extraordinary power stability, are especially suited for perforating paper or plastic foils. Usually, web material is processed at winder systems at high speeds of up to 700 m/min. With laser perforating hole diameters ranging from 50 - 400 microns can be achieved. Highly sophisticated systems like the ROFIN PerfoLas provide perforating speeds of up to 420,000 holes per second.
Cigarette-tip paper is perforated mainly to reduce the tar and nicotine content of light cigarettes worldwide. Laser perforation ensures the definite adherence to the threshold values.
