Is laser die cutting machine and laser cutting machine the same kind of equipment? As the name suggests, laser die cutting machine is a kind of precision laser cutting equipment instead of traditional die cutting. The application of laser cutting equipment is very wide, generally according to the power of the laser to divide the laser cutting machine applications, which allows us to very easy to understand the laser cutting machine, generally cutting metal requires the use of high-power laser cutting equipment. From the laser light source of the laser medium, there are carbon dioxide, ultraviolet, fiber, YAG, etc..

Laser cutting machine is a modern cutting and processing equipment. It is a modern processing equipment that uses light materials to melt and separate materials at high temperatures.

The cutting effect and cutting requirements of laser cutting machines vary according to the requirements of different industries. Some industries require high speed cutting, while others require high speed cutting and smooth cutting blades. The industry requires vertical cutting sections without slopes, etc. Each industry has different requirements for laser cutting, so it slowly started to be subdivided into different industries for users to buy laser cutting machines with different features, and then subdivided into different industries for special laser cutting.

We have been engaged in the laser cutting die industry for many years, and we have changed from a user of die cutting equipment to a manufacturer of laser cutting die equipment. So far, we have a certain understanding of laser cutting machines needed for the laser cutting die industry.

First of all, laser die cutting is a type of die cutting for printing molds, electronics, toys, plastic absorption and other products to obtain many final products that match the design files. The earliest cutter dies were made by hand. A theater bed was used to cut the knife on a wooden board and then the knife was mounted. About 15 years ago, there was a laser knife slit in China and then a knife was mounted and the laser knife die started. By now, laser knife die has become popular and manual knife die will be eliminated and retired from the history stage.

Laser knife die industry is mainly used to cut multi-layer wood plywood, generally using 15 layers of wood plywood (or PVC plywood, Plexiglas, steel plates and other materials) plane cutting. After cutting out a consistent cut with the design file pattern, the board surface cut (commonly known as the industry knife seam) requires the most basic requirements.

1, cutting joints must be vertical

If the cutting joint is not vertical, the steel knife line is not vertical after installation. If not vertical, the size of the molding after the installation of the tool will not be consistent with the size of the equipment pattern, which is known in the industry. The tooling fails due to too large a tolerance. In addition, the cutting joint is not perpendicular and the cutting line is not perpendicular after installation. When the die is cut and compressed, the vertical pressure of the cutting line is deformed and curled and damaged. The better the perpendicularity, the better the accuracy and durability of the mold.

2, the cutting knife must be the same width of the cutting seam

Due to the international standard thickness of the steel cutting line, the cutting seam must have a certain width, the width of the cutting seam can not be too narrow or too wide, because the thickness of the loaded cutting line is the same. If it is too wide, the cutting line cannot be fixed. If it is too narrow, it is difficult to install the cutting line. Forced loading can be very laborious and lead to horizontal extrusion of the board. The final size of the bare board and the board will also change.

Including surface slits and back slits, the width of slits should be the same. The upper fruit upper width and lower width are not suitable, the board will be bent and distorted after the cutting line is installed, and the final die size will be distorted. The mold is scrapped.

3、The cutting size is accurate

When the above two aspects may reach the standard, it is the problem of cutting size accuracy, involving the accuracy of machine tool movement, coordinate positioning accuracy and repeat positioning accuracy. At present, the mold cutting industry has increasingly high requirements for the accuracy and size of laser molds. General printing mold allowable error of 0, 15-0, 2mm, printing and blister mold allowable error of 0, 1-0, printing knife mold, leather knife mold made of plexiglass plate, only allow the error is no greater than 0, 1mm. electronic knife model is higher, the general requirements of the error in about 0, so the accuracy of the machine tool requirements can not be ambiguous.

The above three basic requirements are the main requirements of the mold industry for laser cutting machine. These three requirements are relatively independent and related. Under the premise of ensuring the accuracy of the machine, inconsistent width of the cutting seam will lead to low final accuracy, and the cutting seam is not perpendicular will also lead to low accuracy. However, if the longitudinal cutting seam and the width of the cutting seam are well controlled, an inaccurate machine tool will eventually lead to a failed die or only unnecessary dies can be made. One common feature that knife molds do not need is a large supply. Because of the large number of people, the price must be very low (low requirements, naturally low prices).

Therefore, the laser cutting machine required by the mold industry has its own unique requirements. Not only should the plate be cut, but also the width of the joint. The width of the joint should be consistent, the joint should be vertical, and the accuracy of the machine should not be blurred. It can be said that laser mold cutting machine has very high requirements in the laser cutting machine application industry. Therefore, not all laser cutting machines can cut knife molds, or jokingly: not all laser cutting machines are called laser die cutting machines.
