Metal laser cutting machines were created mainly to improve work efficiency and cutting accuracy. However, high efficiency and high precision are far beyond the reach of human operation. With the progress of society, more and more advanced technologies are applied to the field of name use. For example, in the last century, laser was a strange and mysterious thing for ordinary people. Now, with the development of technology, lasers have been applied to many industries. Today, let's discuss the materials suitable for laser cutting machine.
1. Steel plate cutting.
Gattex laser cutting system can cut carbon steel plate up to a maximum thickness of about 20 mm, while the slit of thin plate can be reduced to about 0.1 mm. Laser cutting of mild steel has a very small heat affected zone and the cut joints are flat and smooth with good perpendicularity. For high carbon steel, the quality of laser cutting edge is better than low carbon steel, but its heat affected zone is larger.
2. Stainless steel cutting.
Laser cutting is easier to cut stainless steel thin plate. Using high-power fiber laser cutting system, the maximum thickness of stainless steel can be up to 8mm.
3. Alloy steel plate cutting.
Most alloy steels can be laser cut, and the cutting edge quality is very good. However, for tool steel and hot mold steel with high tungsten content, spalling and slagging phenomenon will occur during laser cutting.
4. Aluminum alloy plate cutting.
Aluminum cutting belongs to melt cutting. With auxiliary gas blowing off the molten material in the cutting area, you can get good cutting quality. At present, the maximum thickness of cutting aluminum plate is 3mm.
5. Cutting of other metal materials.
Copper is not suitable for laser cutting. It is very thin. Most titanium, titanium alloys and nickel alloys can be laser cut.
