The main components of Laser cutting machines.

Laser cutting is one of the most frequently used and widespread technologies. Approximately 73% of all operations in the processing sector are carried out with the aid of laser cutting technology. Compared to conventional cutting methods, laser cutting technology offers many advantages in terms of high precision, adaptability and low noise levels. In this article we will give a brief introduction to laser cutting machines and basic information about laser cutting machines will be highlighted in this article.

The main components of Laser cutting machines.

This part is the core component of the laser cutting machine, it is mainly used to realize the mechanical part of the X, Y and Z axis movement, including the cutting work platform. It is used to place the workpiece to be cut and can be moved correctly and precisely according to the control program, usually driven by servo motors.

Laser generator

This is the device used to generate the laser light source. For laser cutting applications, apart from a few occasions where a YAG solid-state laser is used, the vast majority use a CO2 gas laser with a high electrical-to-optical conversion efficiency and a high power output. It is important to note that not all lasers can be used for cutting because of the high beam quality required for laser cutting.

External light path

Refractive reflector for directing the laser in the desired direction. To keep the beam path from failing, all mirrors are protected by protective covers and are fed with clean, positive pressure protective gas to protect the lenses from contamination. A good set of lenses will focus a beam with no divergence angle into an infinitely small spot.

CNC control system

Controls the machine to achieve X, Y, Z axis movement and also controls the output power of the laser.

Regulated power supply

Connected between the laser, the CNC machine and the power supply system. It mainly plays the role of preventing interference from the external power grid.

The Laser cutting machine is generally composed of the laser generator, the beam transmission assembly, the machine tool, the microcomputer numerical control cabinet, the cooler and the computer. This equipment is highly efficient but requires periodic maintenance, otherwise the working life of the laser cutting machine will be affected.

The recommended reasons for using the Laser cutting machine.

Laser cutting machine has many advantages, it has high precision, fast cutting, automatic nesting and material saving, smooth kerf and low processing cost. This is a cost effective product which is simple to operate and does not require overly complicated processes. It is worth noting that before purchasing a laser cutting machine, it is important to find out the scope of your business, the material to be processed and the thickness of the cut, in order to determine the model of the machine to be purchased.

The related precautions for using the Laser cutting machine.

When using the Laser cutting machine, the most important thing to understand is safety. The operator is required to wear the required protective equipment and must wear protective eyewear in the vicinity of the laser beam. In addition, do not work on a material until it is clear whether it can be irradiated or cut with a laser, as this creates a potential risk of fumes and vapours.
