difference between high quality laser cutting machine and plasma cutting machine

difference between high quality laser cutting machine and plasma cutting machine–At present,on the market,  the laser or plasma cutting machine the most popular. They have a widely using field in industry filed.Such as kitchen, lamps, automobiles, machinery, advertising.customers who use Plasma-cutting machine don’t know much about laser cutting.And they do not know how to  choose. Let us introduce the difference between laser cutting machine VS Plasma .  

High quality laser cutting machine  principle:

high quality laser cutting machine.the laser beam releases energy when it irradiates to the metal sheet surface.And energy melts the  workpiece and metal evaporates.Thereby it achieves the purpose of cutting. The laser has the direction.The luminous intensity is intense. So that the cutting speed is fast,and  the precision is high.The cutting quality is good, and the cutting gap is narrow.The laser cutting heat affected zone is small .The deformation is extremely small.And the cutting is safe, clean and pollution-free.Thus greatly improves the working environment of the operator.

 Plasma cutting principle:

The heat of the high temperature plasma arc is much.We use it to melt and evaporate the metal workpiece.And we use the momentum of the high speed plasma to  remove the molten metal .Thus can form a slit.

 high quality laser cutting machine VS Plasma cutting machine

The first is the degree of damage.High quality laser cutting does not damage the workpiece. Plasma cutting will have large or small damage. If there is a problem with the plasma cutting machine, it will cause obvious defects on the sheet.

The second is cutting slit: The laser beam  focuse into a small spot, the workpiece cutting seam is narrow.And the plasma cutting slit is larger than the laser cutting machine slit.

Third,it is the cutting speed: High quality laser cutting machine is much faster than  plasma.
 Finally, the cutting accuracy:  for laser cutting machine , it is  0.05mm, repeat positioning accuracy of 0.02mm.And plasma cutting is lower than laser cutting machine cutting accuracy.

In addition, we should  note. After high quality laser cutting machine finish working, do not rush to touch it.so as not to burn yourself. When high quality  laser cutting machine finish, it is black. If you don’t know, you will definitely see how it works.

Above it the  difference betwen high quality laser cutting machine  and Plasma

Hope this can be helpful for u.
