With the gradual maturity of domestic lasers and the breaking of the price monopoly of foreign lasers, the manufacturers of domestic laser cutting machines are also gradually increasing with the price reduction, which also implies that the demand for laser cutting machines in China is also increasing.
The characteristics of flexible metal processing by laser cutting machines have been recognized by many sheet metal customers, and their cutting speed has significant advantages compared to traditional processing equipment. Speed is the fundamental factor determining efficiency, so how can we improve cutting speed and increase usage efficiency during use?
Firstly, we need to understand several factors that affect cutting speed:
The metal materials cut by laser cutting machines are mainly divided into aluminum plate, stainless steel, carbon steel, copper plate, and alloy materials. Different materials have different characteristics and have different absorption rates for lasers, so the cutting speed varies for materials of the same thickness.
The thickness of the material varies, and the required perforation time varies. During the cutting process, the thicker the thickness, the greater the laser energy required, and the slower the cutting speed.
Power is an important factor determining the cutting speed. The higher the power, the greater the laser energy, and the faster the cutting speed of the thin plate. The following are several different power examples, and you can refer to the cutting speed of different materials with different powers;
Scheme for Improving the Cutting Speed of Laser Cutting Machines
Adjust the parameters of the laser machine and improve the cutting speed of the machine.
Machine parameter settings are one of the main reasons that affect the cutting speed of the machine. In general, if the parameters are not adjusted properly, its cutting speed is also not feasible. Parameters are like a series of actions related to a person’s driving, starting, accelerating, etc. If the parameters are not set properly, it is like when a car is starting and you shift to second gear to start, it will shake when starting. When adjusting this parameter, it is generally important to pay attention to the following areas:
