Industrial 1325 laser cutting machine for metal

The machine is compatible with various metals including stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, brass, and copper.

The 1325 laser cutting machine is low maintenance. Regular cleaning and occasional parts replacement are sufficient to keep it running smoothly.

The main differences between CO2 laser cutting and fiber laser cutting lie in the laser source, cutting efficiency, and the types of materials they work best with:

1. Laser Source:

   • CO2 Laser: Uses a gas mixture of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and helium to produce the laser beam. The laser beam is then focused and directed onto the material.
   • Fiber Laser: Uses a solid-state laser, typically a doped fiber optic cable, to generate the laser beam. This makes fiber lasers more efficient and compact compared to CO2 lasers.

2. Cutting Speed and Efficiency:

   • CO2 Laser: Generally, CO2 lasers are slower and less energy-efficient than fiber lasers. They require more power to achieve the same cutting speed, especially for metals.
   • Fiber Laser: Fiber lasers are faster and more energy-efficient, delivering higher cutting speeds with lower power consumption. This results in faster production times and lower operational costs.

3. Material Compatibility:

   • CO2 Laser: CO2 lasers work well with non-metal materials like wood, acrylic, plastics, and certain ceramics, as well as metals such as mild steel and aluminum. However, they struggle with reflective metals like copper or brass.
   • Fiber Laser: Fiber lasers are more effective at cutting reflective metals like brass, copper, and aluminum, and they can achieve high precision on thicker metals with better results. However, they may not be as efficient for cutting non-metals like plastics.

4. Laser Beam Quality:

   • CO2 Laser: The beam quality is lower compared to fiber lasers, leading to less precision, especially on fine details.
   • Fiber Laser: Fiber lasers produce a smaller, more focused beam, which results in better precision, cleaner cuts, and less heat-affected zones.

5. Maintenance:

   • CO2 Laser: Requires more maintenance due to the gas components and the need to regularly change the laser tube.
   • Fiber Laser: Requires less maintenance, as the fiber optics and solid-state components have fewer moving parts and don’t need regular gas changes.
