How to Choose the Best Speed of Steel Laser Cutter ?

The laser power will affect the speed of steel laser cutter. The cutting speed will affect the cutting quality.

Under the condition of a certain laser power.Too fast or too slow will affect surface flatness of the cutting material.

If the cutting speed is too fast:

1.Firstly,The laser beam and the material are in contact with each other in a short time.It may result in the inability to cut.

2.Secondly,It can cut some areas, but cannot cut other areas.

3.Thisrdly.Layer the entire cut part.

4.Thirthly,The plate cannot be cut off in time. The cut section shows a diagonal stripe road.And the lower part will produce melting stains.

If the cutting speed is too slow:

1.Firstly.The interaction time between the material and the laser is too long.It causes the plate is over-melt and the cutting section is rough.

2. Secondly.The slit becomes wider. It causes over-burning in the smaller rounded corners or sharp corners.And it cannot obrtain the ideal cutting effect.

3. Thirdly.The cutting efficiency is low.It affects the production capacity.Judgment method of cutting speed.

How to judge the proper cutting speed？

1. Firstly.The cutting speed is reasonable: the sparks are diffused from top to bottom, the cutting surface is smooth, and there is no slag in the lower part;

2. Secondly.The cutting speed is too fast: the cutting spark is inclined;

3. Thirdly.The cutting speed is too slow: it condens the cutting sparks together, do not spread.

As professional fiber laser cutting machine manufacturer, XT LASER has developed own brand laser device. The laser power is from 1kw to 8kw.

1. Firstly.Layered cooling structure. This can avoid condensation caused by high temperature and high humidity, and keep the temperature constant at 23 ℃.

2. Secondly.Good beam quality . They import the core devices and the implementation of excellent optical fiber fusion splicing process.

3. Finally.High electro-optical conversion efficiency, it can up to 35%.
