Laser cutting is a kind of non-contact processing with high energy and good density controllability
Advantages of laser cutting
The laser beam is focused to form a very small point of action with extremely strong energy. There are many characteristics of applying it to cutting. First of all, the laser light energy is converted into amazing heat energy and kept in a very small area, which can provide narrow straight-edge slits, the smallest heat-affected zone adjacent to the cut edges, and minimal local deformation. Secondly, the laser beam does not exert any force on the workpiece, it is a non-contact cutting tool, which means that the workpiece has no mechanical deformation, no tool wear, and no tool conversion problem; the cutting material does not need to consider its hardness, that is, the laser The cutting ability is not affected by the hardness of the material to be cut; again, the laser beam is highly controllable, and has high adaptability and flexibility, so it is convenient to combine with automation equipment, and it is easy to automate the cutting process; because there is no need to cut the workpiece The laser beam has unlimited profiling cutting ability, and when combined with a computer, it can discharge the entire board and save material.
Laser cutting has a wide range of adaptability and flexibility
Compared with other conventional processing methods, laser cutting has greater adaptability. Also as a thermal cutting process, other methods cannot act on a very small area like a laser beam, resulting in a wide incision, a large heat-affected zone and obvious workpiece deformation.
