To understand the uses and advantages and disadvantages of laser cutting machines, we must first know that there are two main types of laser cutting machines: fiber laser cutting machines and carbon dioxide laser cutting machines, fiber laser cutting machines, also known as metal laser cutting machines, and carbon dioxide laser cutting machines. The machine is also called non-metal laser cutting machine. In the past, there was a machine on the market that could cut both metal materials and non-metal materials. It was called a hybrid cutting machine, but due to its high failure rate and short life, it has been gradually Market eliminated.
The use of laser cutting machine
The use of laser cutting machine is mainly divided into three categories, cutting, engraving and punching. It is mainly used in cutting, carbon dioxide cutting machine is mainly used for fabric cutting, acrylic cutting, plastic rubber and other materials cutting, fiber laser cutting machine is used for metal material cutting, such as stainless steel plate cutting, copper plate cutting, carbon steel cutting and so on.
Advantages and disadvantages of laser cutting machine
Compared with traditional manual cutting, the advantages of laser cutting machine are obvious at a glance, the cutting efficiency is much higher, and the advantages of mechanization compared with traditional manual cutting are numerous, and laser cutting is non-contact cutting, which has little impact on the product itself, and is a type of thermal cutting. The edge of the product is smooth and flat without burrs, the cutting effect is good, the laser alignment is accurate, and the cutting precision is high. Of course, any product has its technological limitations. The disadvantage of laser cutting machine is that it cannot cut multiple layers. Because it is thermal cutting, the edges are prone to sticking during multilayer cutting, which has a great impact on the cutting effect. Multi-layer cutting is not recommended.
