Fiber laser cutting machines are widely used in metal projects. If you are buying a fiber laser cutting machine for the first time, this article may be able to provide you with buying advice.
The
fiber laser cutting machine is specially used for cutting all kinds of medium and thin metal plates, high-quality carbon steel plates, as well as stainless steel plates, aluminum alloy plates, galvanized plates, electrolytic plates, silicon steel, titanium alloys, aluminum-zinc plates and other metal materials. The technology is very mature. If you are buying a fiber laser cutting machine for the first time, this article may be able to provide you with buying advice.
First you need to consider the following factors: What type of metal material do I need to cut? What is the thickness of the metal material? What is the size of the metal material? Select the laser power of the fiber laser cutting machine and the size of the table according to these factors. At present, the power of laser metal cutting machines on the market is between 500W-12000W, and the size of the worktable can be customized according to user needs.
Some important parts of the
laser cutting machine will affect the overall performance of the machine, so everyone should pay attention to this when purchasing the machine. Fiber laser source, laser cutting head, servo motor, guide rail, cooler and other components directly affect the cutting speed and accuracy of the laser cutting machine. You need to know their brand and performance. If they both meet your needs, that would be a good choice.
Choose the right laser power according to the cutting ability of the machine
1) Please pay attention to the cutting range of the laser source: the maximum limit thickness is only used to make simple patterns. The normal thickness means it can be laser cut through the material and processed in large batches.
2) The high-power laser light source has high cutting performance for thick stainless steel and high reflectivity materials such as copper/brass/aluminum. If the manufacturer needs to cut highly reflective materials such as copper, brass, aluminum, etc., it is necessary and recommended to choose a higher power laser.
3) Choose the brand of laser light source according to your budget.
