Laser cutting machine is a tool for production and processing of enterprises. At present, there is a large demand for optical fiber laser cutting machine in many industries. What is the market positioning of optical fiber laser cutting machine? We are more concerned about the relevant knowledge of this laser cutting equipment. Let's take a look at it together.
The main advantages of optical fiber laser cutting machine are high photoelectric conversion rate, low power consumption, and it can cut stainless steel plates and carbon steel plates within 12MM. It is the fastest laser cutting machine for cutting thin plates among the three types of machines, with small slits and good spot quality, and can be used for fine cutting.
Although its advantages are good, it does not mean that it can be used to process any material. Optical fiber laser cutting machine also has its own shortcomings, the main disadvantages and shortcomings: At present, most of the core key technologies of optical fiber laser are in the hands of one or two manufacturers in Europe, America and other countries, so most of the machines are expensive, most of the machines are more than 2 million yuan, and the small power ones are also about 1 million yuan.
At the same time, the cost of maintenance related to accessories and consumables is very high. Because the optical fiber slitting is very thin, the gas consumption is huge (especially in nitrogen cutting). In addition, the optical fiber laser cutter is difficult or even unable to cut aluminum, copper and other highly reflective materials, and the cutting speed is very slow when cutting thick plates.
According to the above introduction, the main market positioning of optical fiber laser cutting machine is cutting below 12mm, especially for high-precision processing of thin plates. It is estimated that with the emergence of 4000W and above lasers, optical fiber laser cutting machine will eventually replace most of the market of CO2 high-power laser cutting machine, mainly for manufacturers with high requirements on processing accuracy and efficiency.
