First of all, this article is just a statement of one family. It's my honor to feel that it has helped you; If you think it is wrong, forgive me. How to choose a laser cutting machine? I think the most important thing is to make clear the price of the laser cutting machine before choosing. If you have only tens of thousands of dollars in budget, you can directly switch to investigate flame or plasma cutting; At present, the cheapest model of laser cutting machine on the market has to start at 100000. If you encounter a model below 100000, I can only give you my blessing.
Without saying much, go straight to the topic. Before choosing, first make clear the requirements: whether to cut metal or nonmetal, whether to cut thick plates or thin plates, whether to cut large or small materials, and whether the cutting accuracy is fine or ordinary? Only when you are clear about your needs can you choose the machine that meets your needs.
The first point is cutting materials: optical fiber laser cutting machine is selected for metal cutting, and carbon dioxide laser cutting machine or others can be considered for non-metal cutting.
The second point is plate thickness: when cutting thick plates, consider high power, and low power for thin plates; For example, if we often cut metal sheets of less than 8mm, we can meet the production demand by selecting 500w-1000w laser cutting machine; If you want to cut 50mm carbon steel, you need a machine above 10000 watts; It should be mentioned here that the general power of the laser cutting machine is proportional to the price. You can simply make a preliminary estimate by increasing the price by 100000 yuan for each additional kilowatt. Of course, the actual price is not calculated in this way, just to give you a preliminary idea of the price.
The third point is the size of the material: the size of the material determines the size of the format you choose, which generally ranges from 3015 to 8025 on the market (3015 is the processing format of 3m * 1.5m, 8025 is the processing format of 8m * 2.5m). If you have plans to deal with large projects, you should obviously buy a laser cutting machine with large processing range.
The fourth point is cutting precision: the cutting precision is 50% of that of the machine and the operator. Let's not talk about the operation for a moment. In terms of the machine alone, we should consider how the machine tool system is, whether the wall is thick enough, what kind of welding method is used, and how the annealing process is. These all determine whether the machine bed can remain unchanged for a long time; Of course, you should be prepared. Every part should be the best, and the price will be very beautiful.
With the preliminary concept of these laser cutting machines, if possible, you can go to the peers who have purchased laser cutting machines to see the performance and basic parameters of the machines first, and then make field investigations. First, you can see the scale of the enterprise. If the enterprise has several machines in processing, you can imagine the after-sales service; Second, we can have a more detailed discussion on the price, training, payment method and after-sales service of the machine; After shopping around, you can make your own decision.
