The Advantages of Fiber Laser Metal Cutting Machine

Compared with traditional cutting processes

In daily cutting, although the traditional cutting machine can do very well, the smoothness of the material cutting is far from enough, and the roughness of the cut is more obvious. The reason why the laser metal cutting machine is widely used is that the CNC fiber laser cutting machine has common outstanding advantages and leading processing technology. When cutting materials, it not only has high power but also a good cutting effect, which is an incomparable advantage of traditional cutting machines. The laser metal cutting machine uses high-density laser beam operations to cut materials at high temperatures. The processing characteristics of the fiber laser cutting machine are fast speed, narrow cutting, smooth cutting surface, and small heat affected area. During processing, the CNC fiber laser cutting machine not only improves the production efficiency and the quality of the cut parts but also saves the processing cost to a certain extent and overcomes the waste of materials in the original cutting processing method.

Compared with traditional cutting, laser metal cutting machine has the following advantages:

1. The cutting speed is fast, which can improve work efficiency. According to the actual laser test results, the cutting speed of the fiber laser metal cutting machine is more than 10 times that of the traditional cutting equipment. For example, when cutting a 1mm stainless steel plate, the maximum speed of a laser cutting equipment can reach more than 30 meters per minute, which is impossible for traditional cutting machines.

2. The processing technology is fine, the cutting opening is narrow, the cutting seam is small, and the accuracy is excellent. It can process and cut micro parts with high difficulty. The laser metal cutting machine adopts advanced accessories to make the equipment more stable during operation, and the cutting precision is more accurate, and the error even reaches the accuracy of 0.01mm.

3. The appearance of laser cutting is smooth and can be used without repeated processing, which can save working hours and labor costs, and play an excellent role in optimizing operations.

4. In the cutting operation, the heat-affected area is small, and the material around the cutting seam is not affected, so that the probability of deformation of the workpiece is small, and the cutting quality of the product is good.

5. When the laser cutting equipment is cutting, the nozzle does not touch the workpiece, which will greatly reduce the wear of the material.

6. The operation is simpler and more convenient. Both flame cutting and CNC punching machines require manual intervention in the operation of the machine, especially CNC punching machines, which require a good mold design before cutting. The laser metal cutting machine only needs to design the cutting pattern in the computer, and any complicated pattern can be imported into the worktable of the laser cutting machine, and the equipment will automatically process the whole process without manual intervention.

Compared with other laser cutting machines

The fiber laser metal cutting machine can be used for plane cutting or bevel cutting, and the edges are neat and smooth. It is suitable for high-precision cutting processing such as metal plates. At the same time, it can be used for three-dimensional cutting with a mechanical arm instead of the original imported five-axis laser. Compared with the ordinary carbon dioxide laser cutting machine, it saves more space and gas consumption and has a high photoelectric conversion rate. It is a new energy-saving and environmentally-friendly product and one of the world's leading technological products.

Advantages of CNC fiber laser cutting machine over CO2 laser cutting machine:

1. Excellent beam quality: smaller focusing spot, finer cutting lines, higher work efficiency, and better processing quality.

2. Extremely high cutting speed: 2 times the same power CO2 laser cutting machine.

3. Extremely high stability: The world's top imported fiber laser is used, with stable performance, and the service life of key components can reach 100,000 hours.

4. Extremely high electro-optical conversion efficiency: The photoelectric conversion efficiency of the fiber laser metal cutting machine is about 30%, which is 3 times higher than that of the CO2 laser cutting machine, which is energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

5. Very low cost of use: the power consumption of the whole machine is only 20-30% of that of similar CO2 laser cutting machines.

6. Very low maintenance cost: no laser working gas; optical fiber transmission, no need for reflective lenses; it can save a lot of maintenance costs.

7. Convenient product operation and maintenance: optical fiber transmission, no need to adjust the optical path.

8. Super flexible light guide effect: small size, compact structure, easy to flexible processing requirements.

Advantages compared with YAG laser cutting machine:

1. Cutting speed: The speed of fiber laser cutting machine is 4-5 times that of YAG, suitable for mass processing and production.

2. Cost of use: The cost of the use of a CNC fiber laser cutting machine is less than that of a YAG solid laser cutting.

3. Photoelectric conversion efficiency: The photoelectric conversion efficiency of the fiber laser metal cutting machine is about 10 times that of YAG.
