What are the types of laser cutting machines

1. Fiber laser cutting machine
Because it can transmit through the optical fiber, the flexibility of the fiber laser cutting machine is unprecedentedly improved, the failure points are few, the maintenance is convenient, and the speed is extremely fast, so the fiber cutting machine has great advantages when cutting thin plates within 4 mm, but it is limited by the solid laser wavelength. The effect of it is poor quality when cutting thick plates. The wavelength of the fiber laser laser cutting machine is 1.06 microns, which is not easily absorbed by non-metals, so it cannot cut non-metallic materials. The photoelectric conversion rate of fiber laser is as high as 25%, and the advantages of fiber laser in terms of electricity consumption and supporting cooling system are quite obvious. Advantages: high photoelectric conversion rate, low power consumption, can cut stainless steel plates and carbon steel plates within 12 mm, it is the fastest laser cutting machine for cutting thin plates among these three machines, with small slits and good spot quality, can be used for fine cut.



2. YAG laser cutting machine
  YAG solid laser cutting machine has the characteristics of low price and good stability, but the energy efficiency is generally low <3%. The output power of the current products is mostly below 600W. Due to the small output energy, it is mainly used for drilling and spot welding and thin plate cutting. cut. Its green laser beam can be used in pulsed or continuous wave applications, and can also be used for cutting, welding and lithography. Advantages: It can cut aluminum plates, copper plates and most non-ferrous metal materials that cannot be cut by other laser cutting machines. The machine is cheap to purchase, low to use, and simple to maintain.
3.CO2 laser cutting machine
  CO2 laser cutting machine can stably cut carbon steel within 20mm, stainless steel within 10mm, and aluminum alloy within 8mm. The wavelength of CO2 laser is 10.6um, which is easily absorbed by non-metals. It can cut non-metallic materials such as wood, acrylic, PP, and plexiglass with high quality, but the photoelectric conversion rate of CO2 laser is only about 10%.


    Founded in 2004, Zhengzhou Baiwei Laser Co., Ltd. is a global laser intelligent solution provider integrating R&D, production, sales and service of laser processing application products. It can cut stainless steel, carbon steel, copper plate, aluminum plate, nickel plate, manganese plate and other metal plates of various thicknesses. The cutting quality is good, the precision is high, the speed is fast and the efficiency is high.
