Most customers want to know what metal can be cut by optical fiber laser cutting machine? And what thickness can be cut through a certain power. This article will introduce you.
The targets of the optical fiber laser cutting machine include stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, aluminum plate, silver, brass, galvanized plate, titanium and other metal materials. For different metal materials, the cutting thickness of different power fiber laser cutting machine has a great relationship with the cutting materials.
Difference of cutting thickness of laser cutting machine with different power
In general, the thickness limits of different fiber laser cutters used to cut various materials are as follows:
(For reference only, the actual cutting capacity is also related to the quality of the cutting machine, cutting environment, auxiliary gas, cutting speed and other factors.)
1. The maximum cutting thickness of different materials of 500W optical fiber laser cutting machine: the maximum thickness of carbon steel is 6mm; The maximum thickness of stainless steel is 3mm; The maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 2mm; The maximum thickness of brass plate is 2mm;
2. The maximum thickness of 1000W optical fiber laser cutting machine made of different materials: the maximum thickness of carbon steel is 10mm; The maximum thickness of stainless steel is 5 mm; The maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 3mm; The maximum thickness of copper plate is 3mm;
3. The maximum cutting thickness of 2000W optical fiber laser cutting machine for different materials: the maximum thickness of carbon steel is 16mm; The maximum thickness of stainless steel is 8mm; The maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 5mm; The maximum thickness of copper plate is 5mm;
4. The maximum thickness of different materials of 3000W optical fiber laser cutting machine: the maximum thickness of carbon steel is 20mm; The maximum thickness of stainless steel is 10mm; The maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 8mm; The maximum thickness of copper plate is 8mm;
5. 6000W laser can cut stainless steel no more than 14mm. Under certain conditions, thicker stainless steel can be cut, but the quality of the cut surface above 14mm cannot be guaranteed. It can also cut carbon steel up to 22mm. Up to 14 mm of aluminium can be cut. Also cut the brass into 14mm. The cutting capacity of 6000W will be better, but the price will also be higher.
6. 12000 has made breakthroughs in power and fiber laser technology, and more and more chip processing manufacturers have begun to upgrade their fiber cutting machines to 10000 watts. So the question is, how thick can a 12000 watt fiber laser cutter cut? Let's find the answer together! A 12000 watt optical fiber laser cutter can cut stainless steel not more than 50 mm and carbon steel not more than 45 mm.
In the actual application process, the cutting ability of the optical fiber laser cutting machine is also related to the machine quality, laser type, cutting environment, cutting speed and other factors. The use of auxiliary gas can also improve a certain cutting ability, so there is no absolute standard to judge the cutting thickness.
