The application and advantages and disadvantages of laser cutting machine

To understand the use, advantages and disadvantages of laser cutting machines, we must first know that the current laser cutting machines are mainly divided into two categories: fiber laser cutting machines and carbon dioxide laser cutting machines. Fiber laser cutting machine is also called metal laser cutting machine, and carbon dioxide laser cutting machine is also called non-metal laser cutting machine. In the past, there was a laser cutting machine that could cut both metallic and non-metallic materials on the market, called a hybrid cutting machine, but due to its high failure rate and short life span, it has been gradually eliminated by the market.

Application of laser cutting machine

Laser cutting machine There are three main uses: cutting, engraving and drilling. Carbon dioxide cutting machines are mainly used for cloth cutting, acrylic cutting, plastic and rubber cutting, while fiber laser cutting machines are used for metal cutting, such as stainless steel plate cutting, copper plate cutting, carbon steel cutting, etc.

The advantages and disadvantages of laser cutting machine

Compared with traditional manual cutting, the advantages of laser cutting machine are clear at a glance. higher efficiency. Compared with traditional manual cutting, the advantages of mechanized cutting are numerous. Moreover, laser cutting is a non-contact cutting, which has little effect on the product itself. This is a thermal cutting. The product has smooth edges without burrs, good cutting effect, accurate laser centering, and high cutting precision. Of course, any product has its own process limitations. The disadvantage of the laser cutting machine is that it cannot perform multi-layer cutting. Because it is hot cutting, the cutting edge part of multi-layer cutting is easy to stick, which has a great influence on the cutting effect. Multi-layer cutting is not recommended.
