The laser processing technology used in laser cutting machines is a complex advanced manufacturing technology that integrates the disciplines of light, machine, electricity, material processing and inspection. Laser cutting process with invisible light beam instead of the traditional mechanical knife, with high precision, cutting fast, not limited to cutting pattern restrictions, automatic layout to save material, smooth kerf, low processing costs, etc., will gradually improve or replace in the traditional metal cutting process equipment.
Laser cutting machine is a revolution and the "centre" in sheet metal processing. The high degree of flexibility of the laser cutting machine, the fast cutting speed, the high production efficiency and the short production cycle of the product have won the customer a wide range of markets.
So, what are the advantages of laser cutting machine applications in the steel and metallurgy industry?
Analysis of the application of laser cutting machines in the steel and metallurgical industry.
Laser cutting machine plays an irreplaceable role in construction machinery, energy, transportation, iron, steel metallurgy, automobile manufacturing, electronic and electrical industry, and other pillar industries of the national economy.
The significant advantages of laser cutting: high accuracy, positioning accuracy 0.05 mm, repeat positioning accuracy 0.02 mm; narrow slit, kerf width is generally 0.10 to 0.20 mm; smooth cutting surface, no burr on the cutting surface; fast, contactless cutting, cutting edge is very little affected by heat, basically no thermal deformation of the workpiece, no need for secondary processing. Independent of the hardness of the material to be cut, the laser can process steel plates, stainless steel, aluminium alloy plates, hard alloys, etc., whatever the hardness, without distortion.
Laser cutting can be carried out on all steel and metal materials commonly used in the steel and metallurgical industry, including carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, aluminium and aluminium alloys, titanium and titanium alloys and most nickel alloys.
The steel and metallurgical industry produces its own plates in a large scale and variety in order to save time and costs. To meet the needs of users with small quantities and multiple varieties, finished products can be provided directly after the laser cutting process, and the cutting scrap can be quickly recycled and reused. At the same time, the intermediate transport links are reduced, saving costs and maximising profits.
There are many materials that can be cut by laser cutting machines. Laser cutting machines can cut acrylic, wood panels, fabric, leather and metal, and can be used in different industries depending on the size of the power width. Used in sheet metal processing, chassis and cabinets, lighting, mobile phones, 3C, kitchenware, sanitary ware, auto parts machining and hardware industries.
