Laser cutting processing uses invisible beams to replace traditional mechanical knives. It has the characteristics of high precision, fast cutting, not limited to cutting patterns, automatic typesetting to save materials, smooth incision, low processing cost, etc., and will gradually improve or replace the traditional metal cutting process equipment.
The laser cutting machine works on stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, aluminum plate, silver, copper, titanium and other metal materials. For different metal materials, the cutting thickness of different power laser cutting machines has a great relationship with the cutting materials.
The maximum thickness of 500W laser cutting machine: the maximum thickness of carbon steel is 6mm, the maximum thickness of stainless steel is 3mm, the maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 2mm, and the maximum thickness of copper plate is 2mm;
The maximum thickness of 1000W laser cutting machine: the maximum thickness of carbon steel is 10mm, the maximum thickness of stainless steel is 5mm, the maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 3mm, and the maximum thickness of copper plate is 3mm;
The maximum thickness of 2000W laser cutting machine: the maximum thickness of carbon steel is 16mm, the maximum thickness of stainless steel is 8mm, the maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 5mm, and the maximum thickness of copper plate is 5mm;
The maximum thickness of 3000W laser cutting machine: the maximum thickness of carbon steel is 20mm, the maximum thickness of stainless steel is 10mm, the maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 8mm, and the maximum thickness of copper plate is 8mm;
For the cutting of metal sheet, generally choose kilowatt level cutting equipment, while for thicker metal materials, such as 25mm, it is better to use tens of thousands of watt level optical fiber laser cutting machine.
