How to cut canvas without fraying?
Canvas is a sturdy and versatile material that is commonly used for a wide variety of applications, including upholstery, clothing, bags, and outdoor gear. However, cutting canvas fabric can be a challenge, especially if you want to avoid fraying and ensure clean, precise edges. While there are several traditional methods for cutting canvas, such as using scissors or a rotary cutter, a fabric laser cutting machine offers a superior solution that delivers consistent, professional results. When you use CNC knife or other physical cutting method, the blade of the knife can separate the individual fibers of the fabric, causing them to unravel and fray at the edges.
3 ways of cutting canvas fabric
Knife Cutter
When a knife is used to cut fabric, it can cause the fibers to become unevenly cut, leaving some fibers longer or shorter than others. This unevenness can lead to fraying along the edges of the fabric as the loose fibers become detached and unravel. Additionally, repeated handling and washing of the fabric can cause the fraying to become more severe over time.
Laser Cutter
However, for the cleanest and most precise cuts, a fabric laser cutting machine is often the best solution. The heat from the laser seals the edges of the fabric as it cuts, preventing fraying and creating a clean, professional edge. This method is especially useful for cutting complex shapes and designs in fabric without causing any distortion or fraying. Fabric laser cutting machines come in various sizes, ranging from small desktop models to large industrial machines capable of cutting multiple layers of fabric at once.
