Processing details
Heat cut processing
A method of cutting by melting the material with heat using high-temperature cutting blades. When cutting, the ends melt and then harden again, preventing fraying at the ends. Chemical fibers such as polyester, polypropylene, acrylic, and nylon that melt when heated can be processed with heat cut. Natural fibers such as cotton, silk, and rayon cannot be processed because they do not melt when heated and will burn.
