ABSTRACT:
A laser cutting system comprises a means for controllably delivering sheet material to a laser cutter and automatically removing cut pieces of sheet material and scrap. The sheet material is supported on an inclined bed having longitudinal slots and the means for delivering sheet material comprises an engagement mechanism which engages an end of the sheet material while supported on the bed by frictionally or penetrably engaging the sheet material and a movement means for moving the engagement mechanism and the associated sheet material longitudinally of said slots. Vacuum means are provided to hold the sheet material on the inclined bed during cutting, which vacuum means are deactivated after cutting to allow the cut pieces and scrap to slide down the bed out of a cutting region to make room for a fresh worksheet. Various means are provided for facilitating the removal of the cut sheet material from the bed.
