The vigorous development of Made in China is not only reflected in the surge of real estate infrastructure, but also in the increased demand for elevators and accessories. Elevator manufacturing and elevator parts industry is ushering in a new stage of development. The contradiction between the growing demand for equipment and the outdated and backward production process is increasingly prominent. With the development of science and technology, laser cutting technology is widely used in many industries, as is the case in elevator manufacturing.
In the 1990s, the elevator parts basically used multi station stamping to process plates. Now, for safety reasons, elevator parts are basically metal materials. The development trend of elevators is mainly the high speed of elevator technology, intelligent control and efficient cleaning. With the emergence of several world-famous brands of elevators, imported laser cutting machines were introduced into domestic sole proprietorship or joint ventures. Later, laser cutting machines began to be used in the domestic elevator industry. With the emergence of domestic laser cutting equipment manufacturers, the situation that laser equipment can only be imported has been broken, and the elevator manufacturing industry has been used, which has reduced the expensive price of elevators. Therefore, domestic elevator companies and accessory companies have successively purchased laser cutting machines for production.
Taking the elevator sheet metal processing as an example, more and more manufacturers choose laser cutting machines as their primary productivity to process fish shaped plates, elevator door panels, escalators, support doors and other components in the elevator sheet metal manufacturing. In the past, the elevator sheet metal processing involved the design of the mold. The mold design was complex, the production cycle was long, it was very laborious, and the economic cost was also high. Therefore, most companies will use the laser cutting machine to complete the elevator sheet metal processing, because the laser cutting machine will not be limited by the mold, and the cutting range and form are very flexible. Even if there is no mold, it can achieve high-speed cutting of the sheet metal, The processing time is greatly shortened and the processing cost is reduced.
As we all know, laser cutting machine has the advantages of fast cutting speed, good quality and high production efficiency. Therefore, the application of laser cutting machine in elevator manufacturing industry not only improves the quality of domestic elevator manufacturing, but also makes elevator manufacturers realize that only by improving the automation and intelligence of equipment, can they flexibly handle various production tasks and improve productivity.
So, what advantages does the laser cutting machine have in the elevator manufacturing industry?
1、 Short processing cycle
There are many kinds of elevator sheet metal parts, many of which need to be customized according to customer needs. Due to the limitation of tonnage and die, it is impossible to process some sheet metal parts. Mold production cycle is long, programming is more complex, and the requirements for operators are also high. The laser cutting machine can get rid of the traditional cutting bondage, realize flexible metal cutting and reduce production costs.
2、 Good cutting effect
The stainless steel decorative plate has a high surface finish, and the processing lines are required to be smooth, flat and beautiful. Multi station stamping process has great influence on the surface finish of sheet metal. As a kind of laser processing method without mechanical stress, laser cutting machine can avoid deformation during cutting, improve the processing quality of elevator board parts, and enhance the core competitiveness of enterprises.
3、 High flexibility treatment
With the improvement of people’s aesthetic standards, the styles and types of products have become diversified. However, due to the large number of products required and the complex shape, the conventional processing methods can no longer meet the requirements. The laser cutting machine has the characteristics of high automation and high intelligence. It can process various special-shaped workpieces, effectively reduce the labor intensity of operators, and optimize the production process.
In addition, laser cutting has the advantages of good rigidity, stable operation, fast cutting speed, high precision and high processing efficiency. It is the right choice for processing carbon steel, stainless steel and other metal plates.
