Main features of pipe laser cutting machine cutting materials

Most organic and inorganic materials can be cut with a tubular laser. In the metal processing industry, which occupies a large part of the industrial manufacturing system, many metal materials, regardless of their hardness, can be cut without deformation. The main features of pipe Laser cutting machine cutting materials are as follows:

1. Small deformation of narrow slit workpiece
The laser beam of the tube laser cutting machine is focused into a small spot, so that the focus reaches high power density. At this time, the heat input by the beam far exceeds the reflection, conduction or diffusion part of the material, and the material is rapidly heated to the degree of vaporization, forming holes. With the relative linear motion of the beam and material, the holes are successively formed into slits of very narrow width. The thermal effect of trimming is very small, and there is basically no deformation of the workpiece.

During the cutting process of the pipe laser cutting machine, auxiliary steam suitable for the material to be cut is also added. During steel cutting, oxygen acts as an auxiliary steam to produce an exothermic chemical reaction with the molten metal to oxidize the material and at the same time help to blow away the slag in the cutting seam. Of course, for materials with high reflectivity, such as gold, silver, copper and aluminum alloys, they are also good heat conductors, so laser cutting is difficult or even impossible.

The pipe laser cutting machine has no burrs, no wrinkles, high precision, and is better than plasma cutting. For many electromechanical manufacturing industries, since the modern tube laser cutting machine system controlled by a microcomputer program can easily cut workpieces of different shapes and sizes, it is usually preferred over stamping and forming processes. Although its processing speed is slower than that of dies, it does not consume molds, does not need to repair molds, and saves time for mold replacement, thereby saving processing costs and reducing production costs, so it is more economical as a whole.

2. Non-contact processing
The laser beam of the tube laser cutting machine is focused to form an extremely powerful point of action, which has many characteristics when applied to cutting. First, the laser energy is converted into an amazing amount of thermal energy, which is kept in a very small area and can provide narrow straight-edged slits. Second, the laser beam does not exert any force on the workpiece. It is a non-contact cutting tool, which means there is no mechanical deformation of the workpiece. There is no tool wear, let alone tool conversion; the cutting material does not need to consider its hardness, the performance of the pipe laser cutting machine is not affected by the hardness of the material being cut, and any hard material can be cut. Third, the laser beam of the pipe laser cutting machine is controllable, with high adaptability and flexibility. It is very convenient to combine with automation equipment, and it is easier to automate the cutting process.

3. Adaptability and flexibility
Compared with other conventional processing methods, the tube laser cutting machine has greater adaptability. Compared with other thermal cutting methods, also as a thermal cutting process, other methods cannot act on a small area like a laser beam, resulting in a wide incision, a large heat-affected zone, and obvious deformation of the workpiece. Lasers can cut non-metals where other thermal cutting methods cannot.
