The fiber laser cutting machine is a machine that meets the cutting requirements. Its monochromaticity, good directivity, and high energy concentration have a huge impact on the development of the entire society. With the increasingly stringent metal cutting standards, fiber laser cutting machines are increasingly recognized by metal processing users. Once a tool strictly used for industrial purposes, now you can find laser cutting machines in schools, maker spaces, and even homes.

What is the sheet metal laser cutting machine?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Computer numerical control (CNC) laser cutting is a sheet metal manufacturing process performed by a CNC laser cutting machine. The main form of sheet metal laser cutting is “vaporized cutting”, in which a laser beam melts the material and high-pressure gas removes the melted material. The 3 main types of laser cutting machines are flying optics; moving materials; and hybrid laser cutting. The flying optical laser cutting machine has a fixed bed for cutting materials, and the laser beam head (optical) moves in the X and Y directions above. The working method of moving the material is very similar to that of a standard punch. The beam is in a fixed position and the material moves in the X and Y directions underneath. The mixer usually moves the workpiece in one (X) direction, while the optical head\/beam moves in the vertical (Y) direction.<\/p>\n

Most CNC laser cutting machines have a processing range of 0.3 mm to 25 mm, which is suitable for higher power models. The laser cutting machine can cut a variety of materials, including low carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, zinc steel, pre-galvanized steel, copper, brass, etc. CNC laser cutting uses various gases to assist the cutting process, including compressed air, nitrogen, and oxygen.<\/p>\n

Laser cutting machines are generally faster than CNC punching machines when it comes to thinner gauge materials and fewer individual holes. This is because the initial perforation of the material slows down the speed of the laser cutting machine. This is also true for thicker gauges, as more heat is required to melt the material.<\/p>\n
