The difference between Plasma and Fiber laser cutting machine
The difference between Plasma and Fiber laser cutting machine .
Many customers will be confused before their decision,Plasma or Fiber?And why ?
So to let you have a suitable solution of the metal cutting,i just made one comparison.
For your reference,check the following table:
| Items | Plasma laser cutting machine | Máquina de corte a laser de fibra |
| Firstly,
Cutting speed |
Slowly (time cost is much) | Fast (higher work efficient) |
| Secondly,
Cutting precision |
0.1mm | 0.05mm (much better) |
| Thirdly,
Principle |
High temperature arc | Laser energy |
| Fourthly,
Material damage |
There will be large or small damage, in the cutting process if the plasma cutting machine cutting head with some problems, will make very obvious defects on the plate. The high temperature will make the steel shape changing |
Laser cutting does not damage the steel non-contact cutting, will not scratch on the work surface |
| Fifthly,
Cutting gap |
Bigger cutting gap | The laser beam is focused into a small spot,the cutting gap is smaller |
| Sixthly,
Flexibility |
CNC programming，cause the cutting precision is not enough,can not cut the smaller objects perfectly | CNC programming, can be processed with any cutting patterns ,no need any molds |
| Finally,
Purchasing cost |
lower | higher |
So you also can share the comparison with your customers for a reference.
The difference between Plasma and Fiber laser cutting machine
Additionally,according to our market data,there is almost no customers to cut pipes by Plasma cutting machine,cause for pipe cutting, it need a higher precision than metal plate cut,so its hard to the Plasma cutting machine.
Cause for the Plasma cutting machine,it is suitable for thick materials cutting,just cut it off,without some beautiful shapes you need.If you need to cut some completed shapes,the fiber laser cutting machine is better.
And if you need to cut more than 12mm stainless steel and 25mm carbon steel,its better to choose Plasma.
