Laser cutting machine is to focus the laser emitted from the laser into a high-power density laser beam through the optical path system. As the relative position of the beam and the workpiece moves, the material is finally cut to achieve the purpose of cutting. Laser cutting has the characteristics of high precision, fast cutting, not limited to cutting pattern restrictions, automatic typesetting to save materials, smooth incision, and low processing cost. So, what are the applications of laser cutting machine cutting technology in the glass industry?
Glass is widely used in the automotive industry, construction, daily necessities, art, medical, chemical, electronics, instrumentation, nuclear engineering and other fields. Large glass panels are used in the automotive industry or construction industry; industrial applications include glass substrates as small as a few microns of filters or laptop flat panel displays, which are widely used. Glass has the characteristics of transparency and high strength, and it is inevitable to cut it in actual use.
Glass has an extremely significant characteristic, that is, hardness and brittleness, which brings great difficulty to processing. Traditional cutting methods are prone to cause a certain degree of damage to the glass, such as; cracks, edge debris, these problems are inevitable, and will increase the cost of making glass products. Under the requirements of modern technology, the quality requirements of glass products are getting higher and higher, and more precise and detailed processing effects must be achieved.
With the development of laser technology, lasers have appeared in glass cutting. Lasers with high peak power and high energy density can instantly vaporize glass. Cutting according to actual needs can cut out shapes that meet the needs. Laser cutting is fast, accurate, and has no burrs on the cuts and is not limited by shape. Lasers are non-contact processing, and cutting is not prone to edge collapse, cracks, and other problems. After cutting, there is no need for flushing, grinding, polishing, and other secondary manufacturing costs. While reducing costs, it also greatly improves the yield rate and processing efficiency. I believe that laser cutting technology will become more and more mature, and the development of laser glass cutting technology will also get better and better.
