WHAT IS FIBER LASER CUTTING MACHINE

LASER CUTTING MACHINE FOR INDUSTRIAL USE -

In  today's world the world is changing very rapidly and it is changing with technology , technology

which affects us today is the same old yesterday . 

Because Science is running with its speed over time . 

If we need to change with it today we will talk about the manufacturing and fabrication

Industry

In which some time was use until the  conventional machinery was gradually replaced by 

Plasma machine . helped us with heavy industrial mild steel and stainless steel can cut the 
Sheet. 

FOR SAMPLE

In today's time , fiber laser cutting machine is replacing plasma with the same reason as Eco-friendly

30 to 40 % cheaper than plasma in operating cost .

Explain about it in one by one Details ....

Plasma cutting 

Plasma cutting is a process that cuts through electrically conductive  materials by means of an 

accelerated jet of hot plasma. Typical materials cut with a plasma touch include carbon steel 

stainless steel , brass,copper, aluminum. 

although other conductive metals may be cut as well.

Plasma cutting is often used in fabrication  shops, automotive part manufacturing , furniture  

Design and as well as medical equipment .

Due to the high speed and precision cuts. plasma cutting better than band saw 

combined with low cost, plasma cutting sees widespread use from large-scale 

 industrial CNC   applications down to small hobbyist shops.

Cut Quality

A plasma cutting system provider can help fabricators determine the equipment features that 

make sense for their applications. Use the following characteristics to evaluate cut quality of test 

parts, and remember to ask the plasma system vendor for the cut time and estimated cut cost per 

part for those test parts:

• Cut surface. A quality cut produces a part that is ready for the next fabrication step. 
• 
  
• Characteristics include a smooth surface free of dross and nitride contamination.
• 
  
• Top edge rounding is caused by the heat of the plasma arc at the top surface of the cut.
• 
  
•  Proper torch height control minimizes top edge rounding.
• 
  
• Top spatter. Cutting too quickly or using a too high torch setting causes top spatter, which
• 
  
•  is easy to remove.
• 
  
• Bottom dross. Easy-to-remove dross indicates cutting is too slow. Hard-to-remove dross
• 
  
• indicates cutting is too fast.
• 
  
• Kerf width. The kerf (or cut) width is related to tip orifice size, current setting, and torch
• 
  
• height.
• 
  
• Cut surface bevel angle. High-precision processes produce a bevel angle of 0 to 3 degrees,
• 
  
• while conventional plasma produces larger bevel angles. Proper torch height control
• 
  
•  produces the smallest bevel angle (as well as kerf width and top edge rounding).

Fiber Laser

A fiber laser is a special type of laser in which the beam delivery as well as the laser cavity 

is integrated into a single system inside an optical fiber with the beam generated within the

 fiber, unlike conventional lasers where the beam is generated outside and sent into the 

system. Considered as a special category of solid state laser, fiber lasers provide many 

benefits compared with other laser technologies, such as:

• Maintenance-free operation
• Ease of use
• High reliability
• High integration capability

 

What is fiber laser cutting machine?

Fiber Laser Cutting Machine. ... This motion follows a CNC or G-code of the pattern to

be cut into the material. When the focused laser beam is directed at the material, it 

melts, burns or blown away by a jet of gas. This phenomenon leaves an edge with a high-quality surface finishing.

Before  cut the laser creates an angle on the material and cut it on the same angle 

so whenever we do the taper measures of the material , we do it in the angle .

  For carbon steel, stainless steel , aluminum ...........

What advantages does cutting with lasers have over other more conventional cutting methods?

There are a huge no of benefit  over other more conventional forms of cutting:

• It’s a non-contact process, and so there is minimal damage caused to the material you are
• 
  
• working with and associated moving parts
• 
  
• Has low maintenance costs and only needs inexpensive replacement parts
• 
  
• The process helps to dramatically reduce material wastage

• One laser machine is capable of working with multiple materials and application 
• 
  
• It is much safer using than other processes as the beam is enclosed within a light box
• 
  
• You are offered total control with the beam intensity, heat output and duration when 
• undertaking a laser cutting process, making this a heavy thickness material 

  These benefits have led to laser-based cutting being used in numerous industries, including 

  the AUTOMOTIVE , AIRSPACE , FABRICATION , JIM EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURE , LAB AND 

  MEDICAL EQUIPMENT & FURNITURE .
