Changchang Laser teaches you how to choose a metal laser cutting machine


The application field of metal laser cutting machine involves many industries such as mobile phones, computers, sheet metal processing, metal processing, electronics, printing, packaging, leather, clothing, industrial fabrics, advertising, crafts, furniture, decoration, medical equipment, etc. The cutting machine should pay attention to the method.

1. First, you need to figure out the production scope, processing materials and cutting thickness of your own company, so as to determine the model, format and quantity of the equipment to be purchased, and make a simple preparation for the later purchase work. The application fields of laser cutting machines involve mobile phones, computers, sheet metal processing, metal processing, electronics, printing, packaging, leather, clothing, industrial fabrics, advertising, crafts, furniture, decoration, medical equipment and many other industries. The mainstream on the market is 3015 and 2513, that is, 3 meters by 1.5 meters and 2.5 meters by 1.3, but the format is not a problem. Generally, companies will provide a variety of formats for customers to choose from, which can be customized.
 
2) Look at the deformation of the material: the deformation of the material is very small
3) The size of the power: For example, most factories are cutting metal sheets below 6mm, so there is no need to buy a high-power metal laser cutting machine, a 1500W fiber laser cutting machine can meet the production needs, if the production volume is large, worry about 1500W The efficiency is not as good as that of high-power laser cutting machines. The best choice is to buy two or more small and medium-power laser cutting machines, which will help manufacturers in controlling costs and improving efficiency.
 
4. Professionals can carry out on-site simulation solutions or provide solutions, and can also take their own materials to the manufacturer for proofing.
1) Thin cutting seam: The laser cutting seam is generally 0.10mm-0.20mm;
2) Smooth cutting surface: whether the cutting surface of laser cutting has burrs; generally speaking, metal laser cutting machines have a little burr, which is mainly determined by the cutting thickness and the gas used. Generally, there is no burr below 3mm. The gas is nitrogen has the best effect, oxygen has the second effect, and air has the worst effect. The fiber laser cutting machine has minimal or no burrs, the cutting surface is very smooth, and the speed is very fast.
 
5) The core parts of metal laser cutting: lasers and laser heads, whether imported or domestically produced, imported lasers generally use more IPGs, and domestic ones are generally more of Raycus. At the same time, other accessories for laser cutting are also Pay attention to whether the motor is imported servo motor, guide rail, bed, etc., because they affect the cutting accuracy of the machine to a certain extent. A special point to pay attention to is the cooling system of the laser cutting machine—the cooling cabinet. Many companies directly use household air conditioners for cooling. In fact, everyone knows that the effect is very bad. The best way is to use industrial air conditioners. The best effect can be achieved by using a special machine.
3. Any piece of equipment will be damaged to varying degrees during use, so in terms of maintenance after damage, whether the maintenance is timely has become a problem that needs to be considered. Therefore, when purchasing, it is necessary to know whether the after-sales service of the company is in place through various channels.
