Abstract
Experiments were performed to determine the effect of lens, position and focal plane, speed of cut and power on the cutting and drilling rates of Perspex. The results were compared to the thermal conductivity and vapour removal theories developed and presented in the paper. The latter was found to be in good agreement with the experimental observations, and provides a sound basis for the assessment of laser machining of other materials which behave in a similar manner.
