What are the applications, advantages and disadvantages of laser cutting machines?

To understand the application, advantages and disadvantages of laser die-cutting machines, we must first know that laser die-cutting machines are mainly divided into two categories: fiber laser cutting machines and carbon dioxide laser die-cutting machines. Fiber laser cutting machines are also called metal laser cutting machines, and carbon dioxide laser die-cutting machines are also called non-metallic laser cutting machines. In the past, there was a type of laser die-cutting machine on the market that could cut both metal and non-metal materials, called a hybrid cutting machine. However, due to its high failure rate and short service life, it has been gradually eliminated by the market.

Application of laser die-cutting machine:

Laser die-cutting machine has three main uses: cutting, engraving and drilling. CO2 Laser die cutting machine is mainly used for cloth cutting, acrylic cutting, plastic and rubber cutting, while fiber laser cutting machine is used for metal cutting, such as stainless steel plate cutting, copper plate cutting, carbon steel cutting, etc.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Laser Die Cutting Machine:

Compared with traditional manual cutting, the advantages of laser cutting machine are clear at a glance, and the cutting efficiency is higher. Mechanical cutting has countless advantages over traditional manual cutting. In addition, laser cutting is non-contact cutting, which has little effect on the product itself. It is a kind of thermal cutting. The product has smooth edges without burrs, good cutting effect, high laser centering accuracy and high cutting accuracy. Any product has its own process limitations. The disadvantage of the laser is that it cannot perform multi-layer cutting. Because it is thermal cutting, the edge part of the multi-layer cutting is prone to adhesion, which has a great impact on the cutting effect. Multi-layer cutting is not recommended.
