a. Cutting thickness
The cutting thickness of laser cutting machine is affected by multiple factors such as laser power, cutting speed, material type, etc. Generally speaking, the thickness range that 3000W laser cutting machine can cut is 0.5mm-20mm. Specifically:
1) For carbon steel, the thickness range that 3000W laser cutting machine can cut is 0.5mm-20mm.
2) For stainless steel, the thickness range that 3000W laser cutting machine can cut is 0.5mm-12mm.
3) For aluminum alloy, the thickness range that 3000W laser cutting machine can cut is 0.5mm-8mm.
4) For non-ferrous metals such as copper and noodles, the thickness range that 3000W laser cutting machine can cut is 0.5mm-6mm.
It should be noted that after these data are referenced, the actual cutting effect is also affected by factors such as equipment performance and operating skills.

The cutting speed of 3000W laser cutting machine is affected by factors such as material type, thickness, and cutting mode. Generally speaking, the cutting speed of laser cutting machine can reach several meters to 1000 meters per minute. Specifically:
1) For carbon steel, the cutting speed of 3000W laser cutting machine can reach 10-30 meters per minute.
2) For stainless steel, the cutting speed of 3000W laser cutting machine can reach 5-20 meters per minute.
3) For aluminum alloy, the cutting speed of 3000W laser cutting machine can reach 10-25 meters per minute.
4) For non-ferrous metals such as copper and noodles, the cutting speed of 3000W laser cutting machine can reach 5-15 meters per minute.

 

laser cutting machine applications

2. Scope of application of laser cutting machine
3000W laser cutting machine is widely used in metal processing, machinery manufacturing, automobile manufacturing, aerospace, electronic appliances, medical equipment, architectural decoration and other fields. Specifically, it can be used for cutting and processing of the following materials:
1)  Metal materials such as carbon steel and stainless steel.
2) Light metals such as magnesium alloy and magnesium alloy.
3) Lead, copper, noodles, tin, and other non-ferrous metals.
4) Non-metallic materials such as wood, plastic, rubber, and leather.
5) Brittle materials such as glass, ceramics, and stone.

 

how does laser cutting machine work

3. Working principle of laser cutting machine
The working principle of laser cutting machine is to use high-power laser beam to irradiate the surface of the material, so that the material can be quickly melted, vaporized or burned, thereby achieving the purpose of cutting. Specifically, the working principle of 3000W laser cutting machine includes the following steps:
1. The laser generator generates a high-power laser beam.
2. The laser beam is focused by the optical system to form a high-energy density laser beam.
3. The high-energy density laser beam is irradiated to the surface of the material, so that the material can be quickly melted, vaporized or burned.
4. The cutting head moves along the predetermined trajectory, and the laser beam tracks the movement to achieve continuous cutting.
5. The slag and gas generated during the cutting process are blown away by auxiliary gases (such as oxygen, oxygen, etc.) to ensure the cleanliness of the cutting surface.

4. Operation precautions of 3000W laser cutting machine
1. Operators need to undergo professional training and be familiar with the operating procedures and safety requirements of the equipment.
2. Wear protective equipment, gloves and other protective equipment during operation to prevent laser radiation and splash damage.
3. Check the performance and accuracy of the equipment regularly to ensure that the equipment works well.
4. Operate strictly according to the cutting parameters of the material to avoid poor cutting effect or equipment damage due to improper parameters.
5. Pay attention to the cutting effect during cutting. If any abnormality is found, check it immediately.
6. After cutting, clean the cutting surface in time to remove residual flux and oxides to ensure the cleanliness and accuracy of the cutting surface.
