I've been looking around for a CNC cutter/laser to cut out certain standard shapes. We mainly use xpreg XC 110 and XC 130 (unidirectional). I came across the CNC-step machines. On their site it says they can cut prepreg with an oscillating knive, but in reality it turns out there are some issues. Does anyone know of a system or manufacturer that allows CNC cutting of prepreg materials?

My work uses ultrasonic blades to cut prepreg even then after a while they need to changed or cleaned from the resin
