How To Choose High Power Laser Cutting Machine?
With the pursuit of efficiency and craftsmanship in the entire processing and manufacturing industry, breakthroughs in laser cutting technology have been made, and the 10,000-watt laser cutting machine has been enthusiastically sought after by the entire industry due to its unique advantages such as high power, high performance, and high stability. The era of the 10,000-watt laser cutting machine has come. With 10,000 watts, it leads the future.
The high-power large-format fiber laser cutting machine has the advantages of large cutting format and fast cutting speed. It can cut thicker metal sheets and has stable performance, which is an inevitable trend in the development of laser cutting technology. With the continuous improvement of market demand, the in-depth application of laser cutting technology will further promote the development of laser cutting machines to high precision and high power. At present, the most popular power in the market is 10,000 watts, and the most popular among 10,000 watts is the 12KW laser cutting machine, which occupies a large market share with its excellent performance and price advantage. With the significant advantages of the series, the market has begun to develop towards higher power, starting from 12KW to 20KW or even 30KW, trying to realize more possibilities, and higher-power equipment has also made a splash in the market with its unique advantages. whirlwind. Everyone can't help but start thinking, is the higher the power the better? Which power is the most cost-effective? Which one is more suitable to choose? In response to these, everyone may have many questions. In fact, for different users, because each company has different processing materials, different product requirements, and different production needs, it is the most important to choose the one that suits you. Higher is better. So how do you choose the most suitable power for you? Next, I will take you to compare the cutting efficiency of 12KW and 20KW, hoping to help you in your choice.
12KW VS 20KW, cutting performance comparison:
When purchasing a fiber laser cutting machine, you need to consider whether the power of the equipment can meet your own cutting needs. The power of the laser cutting machine is one of the core parameters of the equipment. The materials cut by the fiber laser cutting machine are metal materials, mainly stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum plates, brass, etc. The higher the equipment power, the thicker the cutting thickness and the faster the cutting speed.
Under the condition of auxiliary oxygen, when cutting 30mm and 40mm carbon steel, the 20KW laser cutting machine has obvious advantages, and the cutting efficiency is about 1.5 times and 2 times higher than that of the 12KW laser cutting machine, respectively.
Under the condition of auxiliary air, when cutting 10mm carbon steel, the laser cutting efficiency of 20KW is doubled compared with that of 12KW. 12KW directly cannot cut 20mm carbon steel.
When cutting stainless steel, whether it is auxiliary air or nitrogen, the overall advantage of the 20KW laser cutting machine is very obvious. The cutting efficiency is greatly improved compared with 12KW, and most of the stainless steel cutting 10mm-40mm efficiency is more than doubled.
Main application industries of laser cutting machine:
At present, laser cutting machines are mainly used in sheet metal processing, hardware products, kitchen utensils, machinery manufacturing, aerospace, auto parts manufacturing, communication equipment, steel structures and other related manufacturing and processing industries, to meet different users' requirements for fiber laser cutting machines. demand. Different industries, different products, and different processing requirements have different power requirements.
According to market research: small fiber laser cutting machines are mainly used in hardware, kitchen and bathroom kitchenware and other industries; medium power fiber laser cutting machines are mainly used in advertising, sheet metal processing, fitness equipment, chassis and other industries; high power fiber laser cutting machines are mainly used in industries such as Used in aerospace, rail transit, auto parts manufacturing, communication equipment, high-end machinery and equipment manufacturing and other industries;
In general, the choice of how much power fiber laser cutting machine depends on the cutting needs of customers. After the above comparison, everyone has a deep understanding of 12KW and 20KW laser cutting machine products. In fact, no matter how much power, suitable is the best. When purchasing a fiber laser cutting machine, you can choose from various aspects such as processing details, thickness, speed, price, etc., and match the corresponding power size according to the materials to be processed. At the same time, don't forget to check whether the price meets your own budget.
