Laser cutting is a material processing technique widely used for manufacturing metal and alloy aerospace components. Over the last few years there has been an increasing interest in exploiting ceramic matrix composite (CMC) based materials for both high and low-temperature aero-engine components. This is due to their superior thermal and structural properties. However, laser processing of anisotropic composites such as CMC is difficult due to its high melting temperature, and the differences in the physical and thermal properties of the resin/matrix and fibre. This chapter discusses laser cutting of oxide-oxide (Ox-Ox) and silica carbide (SiC) based CMCusing three laser systems (nanosecondwater-jetguided laser, millisecondpulse laser, and continuous wave laser) to understand their machinability under different process conditions. Continuous wave laser cutting demonstrates better cutting speed and cut quality compared to millisecondpulse lasercutting. Water-jetguided laser cutting offers excellent cutting quality however overall cutting speedsare significantly lower than the continuous wave laser.
