Laser cutting machines excel at accurately cutting metal. Plasma cutters are 2X less accurate than laser cutters. Plasma lasers are capable of cutting metals to a precision of 0.1mm (or.004 inches). Laser cutters cut:.05mm and.002 inches.
You can begin your first job once you have access to the machine via RetinaEngrave 3.0. This can all be done in 30 minutes.
Mirror galvanometers, also known as laser engravers or laser cutters, are a series mirrors that move fast to change the laser's path. A rotation of just 10 degrees at the top of the head will produce 1 1/4 inches of movement at 10 inch. It can also serve to trace laser paths before cutting or engraving.
FSL Muse Pandora has the ability to raster and create vector engravings on aluminum, steel nickel, copper and silver as well stone and leather.
If the fiber lasers have enough power, they can cut through reflective substances. They can cut any kind of metal, provided they have enough power. They will be limited in the thickness that they can cut.
Raycus 50W laser fiber can etch aluminum at a 90 degree angle and mark it with 100% laser power.
If you’re cutting very thick metals mostly, and they don’t need to be precisely cut, then plasma might be a better choice.
When lasered, some acrylics made from PVC can emit toxic fumes. It is better to verify the chemical composition of any materials you intend to engrave.
RetinaEngrave can import file types such as PDF, SVG or JPG into RetinaEngrave.
Fiber lasers are widely used for engraving on metals as they can engrave more effectively than generic CO2 lasers.
LaserWorks or RDWorks software are used to control the machine. You can get them free from their websites.
CNC metal pipe laser cutting machine with automatic feeding system for loading & unloading can meet round tube, square tube, rectangular tube, flat tube, flange beam, channel beam, U-tube, and all types of shaped tubes and pipes cutting.
Thin carbon fiber mat can be cut with some fraying - but not when coated. The laser can cut or etch. The laser can cut materials such as wood, paper, cork, and some plastics.
Compressed air, nitrogen, oxygen, and argon are the four primary types of assist gas for fiber laser machines.
To guide light, fiber lasers use an optical fiber cable made of silica glass. Because the resulting laser beam is straighter and smaller than with other types of lasers, it is more precise. They also have a small footprint, are energy efficient, require little maintenance, and have low operating costs.
