Gas reduction technology of fiber laser helps to improve the cutting quality of low-carbon steel

The Mitsubishi GX-F Advanced series of artificial intelligence enabled fiber lasers now use patented gas and burr reduction technology to help improve cutting quality while reducing gas consumption when cutting low-carbon steel.

Mitsubishi Laser's proprietary Agr Mix nozzle technology does not require an external mixing tank or high-pressure oxygen. The combination of low-pressure air and nitrogen inside the nozzle produces a mixed gas, which can be easily adjusted according to the material type.

In order to develop nozzles, manufacturers rely on their non-contact auxiliary gas reduction nozzle technology, which can reduce nitrogen auxiliary gas consumption by up to 75%. According to the company, the new nozzle technology can further reduce it - up to 50%.

Nitrogen is transported to the center of the nozzle in the air hood, while a separate chamber funnels some air into the nitrogen airflow. This will produce a mixture of approximately 95% nitrogen and 5% oxygen. The wider cut provided by the mixed gas makes it easier to remove parts, especially thick parts, from the skeleton.
