Laser cutting is a technology that uses high-energy laser beams to cut materials. It has the advantages of fast cutting speed, high precision, small heat-affected zone, and narrow cutting gaps. Recently, laser cutting technology has been widely used in various fields. Among them, round tube laser cutting technology has become indispensable in the metal processing industry.
What is a round tube laser cutting machine?
Round tube laser cutting technology refers to using a laser cutting machine to cut round tubes. According to the type of laser cutting equipment, can be divided into the following two types:
- Fiber laser cutting: Using fiber laser as the light source, it has the advantages of good beam quality, high power density, and low operating cost, and is suitable for cutting various metal materials.
- CO2 laser cutting: CO2 laser is used as the light source, which has the advantages of fast cutting speed and low cutting cost. It is suitable for cutting carbon steel, stainless steel, and other metal materials.
Advantages of round tube fiber laser cutting machine
Compared with traditional cutting technology, laser cutting round tubes has the following advantages:
- Fast cutting speed: Laser cutting speed can reach tens of meters per minute, which is several or even dozens of times faster than traditional cutting technology.
- High cutting accuracy: Laser cutting accuracy can reach ±0.05mm, which can meet high-precision processing requirements.
- Small heat-affected zone: The heat-affected zone of laser cutting is small, which will not cause material deformation and quenching, and maintain the original properties of the material.
- Narrow cutting gap: The laser cutting gap is narrow, generally below 0.1mm, which reduces material loss.
- Wide cutting range: Laser cutting can cut various metal materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, copper, etc.
