How Laser Cutting Suits Swimwear Stretch
Quick answer: A swimwear laser cutting machine cuts stretch swimwear fabric with an edge quality confirmed by sample cut, reducing curl and fraying on lycra and nylon-spandex — and bonded, no-sew seams become possible. A camera cuts printed swimwear exactly on pattern.
Swim stretch curls badly under blades; the laser fuses the edge as it cuts, with no contact, keeping the fabric on register. The confirmed edge quality often allows skipping the overlock step and suits bonded construction.
Die-less cutting takes new swim styles straight from print to panel.
