Laser cutting machines are divided into two types based upon laser sources: fiber laser machines and CO2 machine.
It's as easy 1-2-3. Because our laser machines function much like a regular printer, it makes your workflow very simple.
First, ensure that all connections, including power supply, exhaust, and computer, are in order. Visually inspect its condition. Ensure that all machines move freely. Make sure your work area is clear and the optical components are cleaned, if required. The operation manual's "General Maintenance" section provides more information. If you need to, check the exhaust and the cooling system. Check that the filter is installed correctly according to instructions. After checking the installation, close and cover the protective cover.
A cooling system refers a water chiller which cools the machine. The electro-optical convert rate is 33%. 67% of the electrical energy is converted into heat. To maintain normal operation of the equipment the chiller must cool down with water. This will reduce the temperature of all parts of the machine.
A basic laser cutter costs between $2,600 and $8,800. It comes with an 80W CO2 laser tube. This is for hobbyists, beginners, hobbyists, home users, small businesses, and professionals. However, high-end laser cutting machines can cost as much as 279,000.00 and include a 12000W IPG fiber power supply for metal fabrication.
This cutting head transforms the laser beam into something that cuts through the substrate material or engraves on it. Before reaching the substrate, the laser beam passes through a nozzle along with compressed gases like nitrogen or oxygen.
It works by directing the laser beam of a powerful pro laser beam to melt the material to give the edge a high quality surface finish.
Laser cutters are used in a wide range of applications inlcluding personalization (customization), digital printing, medical technology, fab labs, education, architectural models, smart phones and laptops, computers & electronics, toys, watches, arts & crafts, awards, trophies, rubber stamps, packaging design, die cut, mold making, signs making, displays making, giveaways, electronics industry, automotive industry, signage, mechanical engineering, ball bearing, jewelry making, fashion & apparel fabrics, stencils, paper cards, car floor mats & liners, textile and garment industry, bar code serial numbers, watches, machining industry, data plates industry, packaging industry.
GSS Machinery high speed CO2 laser machines are available in many configurations to suit your needs and budget.
Waveguide laser tube patents by GSS Machinery provide the best beam quality in industry. GSS Machinery lasertubes provide the best quality engraving and cutting by using higher CO2 gas pressure, faster switching speeds, and an optimized beam.
The CNC system controls cutting speed, laser power and gas pressure. The movement trajectory during slitting is also controlled by the CNC system.
GSS Machinery will provide you with 2022 top-rated Laser Cutting Systems with 3 axis (4th axis rotary axis), 4th axis (5 axis), and 5 axis at an affordable price. They also offer expert laser cutting services & support to suit your 2D/3D lasercut plans, ideas, and projects.
Adjust the position and height of the cutting blade. After all preparations are complete, you can start cutting.
Based on technology, we are more concerned about CO2 laser cutting machines vs fiber laser cutting machines. CO2 laser cutters are the pioneers of laser cutting equipment. Therefore, they are considered the backbone of the metal industry for the last twenty years.
Laser Cutting Process Drawbacks
When compared to other techniques, laser cutting requires a high power consumption.
The laser beam is extremely delicate to handle.
If the laser beam comes into contact with human workers, it is hazardous.
Laser cutting is still unable to cut thick metals.
A CNC laser cutting machine costs between $2,600.00 and $300,000.00. A CNC laser engraving machine costs between $2,400.00 and $70,000.00.
Laser power of 80W. A laser can typically cut up to 10mm acrylic and up to 9mm soft woods.
