With the increasing demand for laser cutting equipment in more and more industries, laser cutting equipment is facing new challenges. In particular, the requirements for handicrafts are getting higher and higher, and the upgrading of technology is very important. In some industries that do not touch laser cutting machines, they have begun to use optical fiber laser cutting machines. However, laser cutting machines are not omnipotent, and they are also limited by certain materials.
Many people believe that the optical fiber laser cutting machine can be equipped with lasers of different powers. The cutting range should be very wide, and the effect should be much better than other cutting methods. In fact, cutting machines can also be classified into different types that can cut different materials. What are the mainstream devices in the market?
As we all know, as the mainstream of cutting machine, fiber laser cutting machine has the advantages of wide cutting range, fast cutting speed, good cutting effect and maintenance free in the market. It is the best choice for cutting different materials. Especially for cutting metal materials.
What materials cannot be cut by optical fiber laser cutter?
Although optical fiber laser cutting machine has many excellent functions, there are still many materials that cannot be cut. What materials cannot be cut by optical fiber laser cutter?
First of all, we need to be clear that optical fiber laser cutting machine belongs to the category of metal cutting machine, so it can be used to process metal. But for non-metallic materials, such as cloth and leather, this is not a better choice.
Secondly, the optical fiber laser cutter cannot cut the medium density fiberboard. The medium density fiberboard mainly includes fiberboard, wood fiber and plant fiber. Some materials are made of urea formaldehyde resin, while the man-made board is made of adhesive. Because the optical fiber laser cutting machine belongs to thermal processing. It will cause burns and burn the cutting edge, so it cannot meet the requirements of perfect cutting. Therefore, it is currently not possible to use fiber laser cutting machines to process these types of materials.
There are also some highly reflective materials. Since these materials are not in the ideal absorption range of these materials at the laser wavelength, they will reflect some energy to burn out the protective lens. Therefore, these types of materials cannot be processed by optical fiber laser cutting machine at present.
