When choosing a suitable fiber laser cutting machine, how to choose its power?

2024-03-27

How should we choose low, medium, and high-power fiber laser cutting machines? People familiar with the fiber laser cutting machine industry know that different power fiber laser cutting machines have different cutting capabilities and cutting thickness ranges. Customers have different requirements for the configuration of fiber laser cutting machines due to the different materials they want to cut. Therefore, the market has a demand for low, medium, and high power cutting machines. So, when choosing a suitable fiber laser cutting machine, how to choose its power?

The material cut by the fiber laser cutting machine is metal, mainly including stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum plate, brass, etc. Generally speaking, the higher the power of the device, the thicker the cutting thickness. The power mainly depends on the laser. In the market, 2000W and above are generally referred to as high power, power between 1000W and 2000W is referred to as medium power, and power below 1000W is referred to as low power. Based on current demand, there is a high demand for 2000W fiber laser cutting machines in the market, which can meet most cutting needs. Cutting speeds above 2000W may be faster, but at the same time, prices are also higher. The power level is one of the main factors directly affecting the price of laser cutting machines.

For thinner stainless steel and carbon steel plates, low-power fiber laser cutting machines may be used to cut very well, while also ensuring high cutting speed, which not only ensures work efficiency but also saves costs. Therefore, when choosing a laser cutting machine, it is necessary to make a reasonable choice based on your own material, material thickness, etc., and not blindly pursue high power.

Of course, if your processing plate has both thick and thin plates, and the production capacity demand is very high, a high-power laser cutting machine within the price range that you can afford is also a better choice. By adjusting the cutting speed appropriately and replacing auxiliary gases, high-power laser cutting machines can also control the cutting quality well when cutting thinner sheets.

So customers should consider two points when purchasing fiber laser cutting machines. Firstly, meet the cutting requirements of customers; Secondly, the price is within one's own affordability range. The power of a laser cutting machine is one of the important factors you need to consider, but it does not mean blindly pursuing high power.

Diversified products to meet the diverse needs of different users for fiber laser cutting machines. Customers in the hardware and kitchen and bathroom industries are mainly suitable for small fiber laser cutting machines; Customers in the advertising, sheet metal, and chassis industries generally choose medium power fiber laser cutting machines; Customers in industries such as aviation, aerospace, rail transit, and automotive must choose high-power fiber laser cutting machines. Overall, the choice of a high-power fiber laser cutting machine depends on the customer's cutting needs.
