Carbon fiber is the most common material among composite materials. It is widely used in aerospace, shipbuilding and vehicle manufacturing industries. An important process in the production process of carbon fiber is cutting.
Composite Material Cutting Machines
IGOLDEN’s engineers develop and enhance our cutting products, capabilities, and customer service to serve an ever-growing list of industries. Our flexible composite cutting machines are utilized by manufacturers in the aerospace, wind energy, automotive, sporting goods, electronics, and marine industries, as well as other advanced material applications.
CNC Oscillating Knife Cutting Machine
The CNC oscillating knife cutter adopts the visual control system, and the processing method is set through the software of the CNC knife plotter, and the cutting path is optimized according to the processing requirements of the material, and then the file is downloaded to the controller of the flat knife plotter machine.
The processing parameters (cutting speed, acceleration speed, cutting depth of the blade, etc.) are well set by the digital control panel of the CNC cutter to order the machine tool to process the parts.
Set the cutting parameters (cutting speed, acceleration, cutting depth, etc.) through the visual control panel, and the CNC tool cutting machine will automatically process the material according to the drawing.
The intelligent oscillating knife plotter uses the high-frequency vibration of the blade to achieve the purpose of cutting.
We provides solutions tailored to customers’ needs of various composite materials cutting. Our modular combination of cutting tools can meet your individual cutting demands for a variety of materials, such as carbon fiber, glass fiber, ETFE, PVE, HYPALON, etc., providing a high speed, precise and stable cutting operation.
Composite Material CNC Cutter Advantages
1)Software System: Save labor cost, solve the error of manual cutting increase yied. Solve the difficult of shape cutting, improve efficiency and solve the problem of difficult recruitment.
2)Easy editing function: The software system integrates the layer functions of commonly used in the advertising industry, the original graphiC file can be modified and edited easily.
3)Convenient operation: The software system is powerful and easy to operate, which is one of the important features , Just have a video tutorial or manual you can quickly master the operation.
4)Reduced Labor: Machine cutting is faster and more accurate than hand cutting, even with static benchtop machines (where the operator manually positions the material to be cut). Conveyor systems automatically feed and spread the material. These systems require minimal labor to operate and can switch from one job to another in minutes.
5)Improved Material Utilization: Because composites industry cutting machines are so precise and repeatable, errors and waste common in manual cutting can be reduced. In addition, easy-to-use nesting software automatically arranges the template shape in the most material-efficient way to fit the size of the material being cut. These factors combine to reduce material waste by up to 25%.
6)Quality: Composites industry cutting machines are so precise that the quality of the final molded product is more consistent. This becomes critical as part complexity increases.
7)Efficiency Brings Flexibility: The high speed of composites industry cutting increases production throughput, and cutting can be done closer to the time of laying, and in some cases even simultaneously. This brings greater flexibility to scheduling. It also reduces the deterioration of materials that require refrigeration and have a limited shelf life at room temperature.
What are composite materials?
Composite materials refer to materials that are composed of two or more different substances combined in different ways. It can bring into play the advantages of various materials, overcome the shortcomings of a single material, and expand the application range of materials. Although composite materials have obvious advantages compared with single materials, they are difficult to cut and suffer from high material loss. This requires precise production processes to minimize losses.
Composites are designed by combining two or more different materials to create new materials with enhanced properties. Typically, reinforcing fibers such as carbon or glass are embedded in a matrix material such as epoxy resin. This combination provides superior strength, reduced weight and enhanced corrosion resistance compared to traditional materials.
Application: Cutting high-performance composite materials such as carbon fiber, glass fiber, and prepreg.
Value: Avoid problems such as delamination and thermal damage that may be caused by traditional cutting methods to ensure material performance; accurately control shape and size to meet the strict requirements of lightweight and high-strength structural parts in aerospace, wind turbine blades, sports equipment and other fields.
