In recent years, laser cutting technology has been more and more widely used in metal cutting and nonmetal cutting industries. Optical fiber laser cutting technology has been quite mature in the current metal processing industry, and has a large market share. However, there are still many users who do not know how to choose the appropriate optical fiber laser cutting machine for their business. In the next section, we will discuss how to select the fiber laser cutting machine from six aspects.
1. Know your materials:
Before purchasing, you should consider your business scope – the type of material to be cut, the thickness of the material to be cut, and then determine the power and size of the equipment suitable for your work needs. At present, the power range of optical fiber laser cutting machines on the market is 500W to 8000W. The size of the worktable can be customized by the manufacturer of the optical fiber laser cutting machine according to your application.
2. Selection of fiber laser cutting machine manufacturers:
After determining the cutting requirements, you can go to the market to learn about the equipment, or go to the local user who has purchased the optical fiber laser metal cutting machine to check the performance and basic parameters of the machine. It is recommended that you choose several companies with rich manufacturing experience and competitive prices to further exchange and make samples. Later, you can carry out on-site inspection and have a more detailed discussion on cutting parameters, machine price, operation training, payment methods and after-sales service.
3. Optical fiber laser power range:
When considering the performance of optical fiber laser cutting machine, its working capacity and laser power range should be fully considered. For example, if you often cut metal sheets no more than 6mm, a 500W-700W laser cutting machine can meet the production requirements; If more than 6mm of material is to be cut, it is necessary to consider using higher laser power, which is helpful for the company’s cost control.
4. Core parts of optical fiber laser cutting machine:
The laser generator, laser cutting head, servo motor, guide rail, water tank, etc. must be clearly distinguished, because these components directly affect the cutting speed and accuracy of the equipment. Even some dishonest manufacturers will use domestic parts instead of imported parts to cheat customers.
5. Evaluate the quality and stability of optical fiber laser cutting machine:
Now, the product development cycle is very short, and the product upgrade is faster and faster. How to ensure the quality and quantity of customer orders, maintain the reputation of the enterprise and enhance the competitiveness of the enterprise are the arduous tasks of each manufacturer. Try to choose a brand with high product quality, working stability and perfect after-sales service system. Don’t choose low-quality products without after-sales service just because the price is low, which will have a huge impact on your production output and quality.
6. Reliable and professional after-sales service:
The after-sales service of each manufacturer varies greatly, and the warranty period is also different. Professional after-sales service not only provides customers with effective daily maintenance plans, but also has a professional training system to help customers get started as soon as possible. Users will encounter various problems during processing. When encountering problems that customers cannot solve, it is particularly important for manufacturers to provide timely solutions. This is also a key factor to consider when purchasing optical fiber metal laser cutting machine.
