Laser Cutting Machine Sheet Metal Buyer Guide

What is the sheet metal laser cutter?

Laser cutting, also known as laser beam cutting or CNC laser cutting, is a thermal cutting process often used in sheet metal processing.

Laser cutting can be used to cut various materials such as steel plates or aluminum plates, or three-dimensional objects such as profiles and pipes.

During the cutting process, a high-energy and highly focused laser beam is directed towards the workpiece. The process produces metal vapor and melt, which are blown out with the help of high-pressure airflow. The laser beam forms a cutting joint or cutting gap in the workpiece, and the cutting edge of the laser beam varies. Many different cutting tasks can be performed using laser beams. It ranges from cutting metals with a thickness of up to 30 mm to very precise incisions for extremely thin materials. CNC laser cutting is a process that uses different types of lasers, among which fiber lasers and CO 2 lasers are the most widely used industrial applications.

Compared with other processes, even in very small batches, CNC laser cutting can be used economically.

What materials can the sheet metal laser cutter cut?

Laser cutting machines can cut all types of metals, from mild steel to stainless steel and non-ferrous metals. More reflective metals such as aluminum are more difficult to cut. In these cases, fiber lasers are a better choice.

Lasers can cut many materials and are usually used to select several types of metals, especially carbon steel, low carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and aluminum.

Carbon steel: Steel is a mixture of iron and carbon. Carbon steel is steel with a, particularly high carbon content.

Low carbon steel: Compared with carbon steel, low carbon steel has a lower carbon concentration.

Stainless steel: Stainless steel adds a small amount of chromium to produce corrosion resistance.

Other steel alloys: Alloy steel is combined with one or more other elements to enhance its strength.

Aluminum: Aluminum is lighter than steel, so it is very useful.

In addition to these metals, lasers can also be used to cut many non-metallic materials, from wood to plastics to ceramics. However, it is most commonly used to cut metals, especially those listed above.

Why choose laser cutting for sheet metal processing?

Relatively low cost

Compared with other cutting mechanisms, laser cutting is very cost-effective. Since CNC automation is involved, labor costs are the lowest, because no one needs to operate these machines when using them. Instead, you just flip a switch and let it run. In addition, the laser will not become dull or worn like other cutting tools. For this reason, there is no necessary conversion in the intermediate process, thereby increasing productivity and shortening delivery time. When the interruption in the cutting process is minimal, the cost will be reduced.

Speed and efficiency

The laser can cut the material very quickly, moving 20-70 inches per minute. The exact speed will depend on the tolerance and complexity of the parts, however, they move very fast. Through multi-head laser or multiple lasers working at the same time, the cutting speed can be further improved. In addition to the fast cutting speed, the laser cutting machine can also work overnight without the operator, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the cutting process. The combination of these factors means that laser cutting machines will complete parts faster than other cutting processes.

Automation

One of the advantages of laser cutting is that the machine is completely controlled by CNC. Someone enters the code into the computer, resulting in almost no changes in parts and products, and a significant reduction in defects. Automation also means that less labor is required to operate the machine and perform its tasks, thereby increasing process efficiency. The automation of the cutting process brings higher efficiency and higher quality products.

High precision

The laser cutting machine has highly sophisticated features, capable of creating small cuts and tight tolerances. If you need complex cutting, a laser cutting machine is the best choice. They create smooth, sharp, and clean edges and curves. They also produce almost no burrs because the laser will melt the material instead of cutting it. Laser cutting machines are very suitable for sheet metal manufacturing because they are highly accurate and can perform accurate and high-quality cuts.

Highly versatile

Operating cost, machine speed, and simple operation make the laser cutting machine very suitable for products of any size. Because the laser cutting machine is accurate and precise, you can ensure that the final result is of the highest quality. Laser cutting machines can cut a variety of materials, including most metals, making them ideal for sheet metal manufacturing. They can handle tight tolerances and complex designs, ensuring that any project is within their scope. Laser cutting machines are also one of the fastest options for cutting sheet metal, ensuring that your project is completed on time with minimal interruption.

Unlimited customization

The ability to manufacture sheet metal according to your customers’ exact specifications adds to your company’s value proposition and customer appeal. Laser cutting allows you to cut materials quickly and accurately, regardless of the thickness of the metal plate or the complexity of the desired shape. Using the laser cutting method, you can deliver sheet metal jobs exactly according to the customer’s specifications every time.

How much does a sheet metal laser cutting machine cost?

How much does a sheet metal laser cutting machine cost? You might be wondering what the selling price of CNC machine tools is? How much does an entry-level CNC machine tool cost? What is the selling price of a small CNC machine tool? In fact, the selling prices of CNC routers of different brands are different. The price of IGOLDENLASER machines ranges from thousands of dollars to tens of thousands of dollars, or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.
