Why the fiber laser cutting machine can quickly occupy the market and gradually replace the traditional cutting process?

The reason is that it has many obvious strengths.

Parts to be replaced

High brightness broadband single-core junction semiconductor laser, over 100,000 hours of pump time. One of the semiconductor damage does not affect the normal operation of the laser, but the power is reduced because each semiconductor pump is independent of each other.

The laser work requires gas supplement and the reflector lens is replaced

Semiconductor Bar (array) maximum 5000 hours pulse mode or 10,000 hours continuous mode. The whole pump source needs to be replaced constantly during the use of the laser, which needs between $200,000 and $230,000 per change.

 

 

CNC Fiber laser cutting machine VS CO2 laser cutting machine

1.Speed

On one hand, CO2 laser cutting machine has a wide range of cutting.

It can cut thick metal sheet and high reflective material like aluminum plate.

For non-metallic materials like acrylic, wooden materials, PVC materials etc, the cutting thickness could be up to 60 mm.

Because of the continuous laser, cutting surface is smooth and of high quality.

On the other hand, the cutting seam of CO2 laser cutting machine is thin, but the speed of cutting thick sheet is very slow.

When cutting mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum plate, fiber laser cutting machine of equal power is 2-3 times faster than CO2 laser with smooth cutting .

The beam of CO2 laser is divergent and not suitable for large machining.


2.cost
The maintenance cost of CO2 laser cutting machine is very high.

Not only front lens and back lens are expensive, but also the working life of turbine bearings.

It is shorter than one year and ¥80000/pair for new.

At the same time CO2 laser cutting machine would consume gas during processing.

And the photoelectric conversion rate is only 8% to 10% .

But fiber laser cutting machine almost consumes no material during processing.

And photoelectric conversion rate can reach 30%, which is more economic.


3.maintenance
We know that CO2 laser cutting machine laser has complex structure, inconvenient maintenance and high operation requirements.

But the CNC fiber laser cutting machine has simpler maintenance.

Besides,tolerance of dust, shocks , temperature and humidity in poor work environment.
