How to choose the right laser cutting machine power?

How to choose the right laser cutting machine power? The laser cutting machine is to focus the laser light. It emitts from the laser into a high-power density laser beam through the optical path system. The laser beam irradiates the surface of the workpiece. Then make it reach the melting point or boiling point.

At the same time, the high-pressure gas coaxial with the beam blows away the molten or vaporized metal. As the relative position of the beam and the workpiece moves, the material will eventually form a slit. So as to achieve the purpose of cutting.

Laser cutting processing is to replace the traditional mechanical knife with an invisible beam. It has the characteristics of high precision, fast cutting. Not limited to the cutting pattern, automatic typesetting, saving materials, smooth cutting, and low processing cost. It will be gradually improved or replaced. Traditional metal cutting process equipment.

So, how to choose the right laser cutting machine power in actual demand?

 

1. Firstly, choose according to the material to be processed and the thickness of the cut:

We select power according to the actual processed material and the real cutting thickness. So that we can determine to purchase which model. Like the machine power, the working area, etc. And it is a simple pavement for the later procurement work. The application field of laser cutting machine involves many industries. Such as sheet metal processing, metal processing, advertising, technology, medical equipment and so on.

2. Secondly, choose according to the smooth cutting surface:

Whether the laser cutting surface has burrs or not, it is mainly related to the cutting thickness and the gas used. There is no burr for cutting below 3mm. Nitrogen is the best gas, followed by oxygen, and air is the worst. The metal laser cutting machine has the least or no burrs, the cutting surface is very smooth, the speed is relatively high, and the material deformation is relatively small.

3. Thirdly, selection of core parts of laser cutting:

Lasers and laser heads are imported or domestic. Imported lasers generally use more IPG, and domestic ones generally use Raycus. At the same time, pay attention to other parts of laser cutting, such as whether the motor is imported servo Motor, guide rail, bed, etc., because they affect the cutting accuracy of the machine to a certain extent.

4. Forthly, power selection:

For example, most factories cut metal sheets below 6mm, so there is no need to buy a high-power laser cutting machine. A 2000W laser cutting machine can meet production needs. If the production volume is large, it is worried that the 2000W efficiency is not as good as the high-power laser cutting machine. The best choice is to buy a high-power laser cutting machine, which is helpful to metal processing manufacturers in terms of cost control and efficiency improvement.
