For the laser cutting machine, the laser is a very important accessory, and also a more expensive part of the whole machine. The power setting span of the laser is relatively large. Generally speaking, hundreds to thousands of power are relatively common. When the power is high, it can reach ten thousand watts. And the cutting machine used to cut and process metal materials should start at least with 500 watts. At present, kilowatt level lasers are the mainstream in the market. Ten thousand watt level lasers are not common, and only a few industries can use this power equipment.
Generally, there are two kinds of lasers: domestic lasers and imported lasers. Imported lasers are relatively expensive, but because foreign laser equipment started earlier, the technology is relatively mature; The price of domestic laser is relatively cheap, and the performance can also meet the production requirements. The specific choice of metal laser cutting machine depends on the budget. In addition, the selection of laser cutting machine is also affected by accessories. Good accessories can give full play to the performance of the equipment to a greater extent
1. Optical instruments. Optical components are the core part of the cutting machine. If light cannot be generated, the laser equipment will lose its due value. There are many optical components in the equipment, and each lens should ensure its quality.
2. Consumable accessories. Although there are few consumable parts, they are also an important part. They are mainly used together with lasers to complete metal cutting, such as water cooler, nitrogen and oxygen gas.
3. Software system. The software system can be regarded as the “brain” of the laser cutting machine, and its quality is an important factor affecting the experience of using the equipment. Whether the equipment can be well compatible with the hardware and achieve greater use value of the metal laser cutting machine also depends on this part.
With the passage of time, the demand for laser cutting machines has also increased. Laser cutting equipment is a high-power heavy industry equipment. Its good play makes the follow-up work more smooth, and also reduces costs. Every industrialist or business owner must understand the benefits of using laser cutting equipment instead of traditional cutting machines to shape their devices. The following are some advantages of this equipment compared with traditional cutting machines:
The main reason for using laser cutting technology is to reduce the mechanical stress of sheet metal parts during cutting. The laser not only eliminates the impact stress that may adversely affect the sheet metal products during the cutting process, but also has a very small heating zone. This means that the rest of the workpiece is only exposed to little or no heat, thus maintaining the properties of the material being treated.
High quality cutting device is another amazing aspect of laser cutting machine. You don’t have to worry about the precision of cutting, the fineness of the working area and the post-processing of metal cutting. Therefore, it increases the quality of the finished product. Moreover, the machined metal surface has only small burrs at most. These burrs are not even visible, and do not even need to be removed. However, for traditional metal cutting machines, the cutting process has many steps. Including the treatment of products and refining of cutting.
Laser cutting machines are also known as precision cutting machines. The precision and quality provided by these machines are within the range of 0.1mm, even higher on some machines. Therefore, the finished product is an example of high quality and high grade. In addition, once the device is cut, no further treatment is required for the device.
