Need help on selecting a laser for cutting filter media

My company manufactures filters used for pulmonary function testing. The PFT filter is constructed of 2 injection molded housing halves with a 3.5" diameter non-woven filter media disc sandwiched between the halves and ultrasonically welded. We currently buy our filter media discs pre-cut. And in the spirit of saving money and staying competitive in the marketplace we are considering cutting the discs inhouse. Our current disc supplier is die cutting the media, and we see cutting by laser as more efficent method. We have had samples laser-cut and have tested the samples in our filter assemblies and they work fine. I am looking for some guidance in selecting a laser equipment manufacturer. The filter media cuts efficently at 100 watts. The filter media would be purchased on rolls 4' in diameter, so I would a roll feed attachment and way to convey it through the machine. Currently we use about 1.5 million discs a year, so machine would need to handle volume. Anyone have any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated. 字串2

Can you specify as many parameters to the cuts that you are happy to supply?

cloa, Thanks for response, but I'm not sure I understand your question. The discs are 3.5"+/-.010 diameter. They cut easely at 120"/min with 100 watts co2.
