(Laser) Machining Porcelain

permalink

Hi All,

I'm interested in machining (specifically using laser ablation) unglazed porcelain tiles. The tiles I will need would be at least around 12"x1/2" disks but hexagonal will do.
Is there anyone with experience doing this with say, a CO2 laser? If it's not possible with CO2, what type of laser and power would be required?

BTW does anyone know of a source of such tiles?

Thanks!
Mark
