Solutions To Low Productivity Of Laser Cutting Machines

Fiber laser cutting machine is widely respected in the metal processing industry mainly because of its high productivity and advantages in terms of labor costs. However, there are many customers who use it for a period of time and find that the productivity has not improved much, what is the reason for this? Here are the reasons for the low productivity of fiber laser cutting machine.

1. No automatic cutting process

Fiber laser cutting machine in the system does not have automatic cutting process and cutting parameter database. Cutting operators can only draw and cut manually with experience, cutting can not do automatic piercing and automatic cutting, all need to be manually adjusted, in the long run, the efficiency of the fiber laser cutting machine is naturally very low.

2. The use of cutting method is not appropriate

In the cutting of metal plates without the use of suitable cutting methods. This cutting path is long, cutting time-consuming, productivity is also very low, while the use of consumables will also increase, high cost.

3. Did not use the nesting software

Nesting and cutting without the use of nesting software, but in the system manually nesting, according to the order of the parts to cut sequentially. This will result in a large number of edges and corners after cutting the plate, low utilization of the plate, and the cutting path is not optimized, cutting time-consuming, low productivity.

4. Cutting power and the actual cutting thickness mismatch

Not in accordance with the actual cutting requirements to select the appropriate fiber laser cutting machine. For example, the actual need to cut large quantities of 16mm carbon steel plate, and purchase a 3000W power cutting equipment, equipment can indeed be 16mm carbon steel cutting, but the cutting speed is low, and long cutting will lead to increased damage to the lens, and even affect the focusing lens.

These are the common reasons for low efficiency of fiber laser cutting machine and its solutions. A good laser cutting machine is an important condition for efficient production, the protection and maintenance of the laser cutting machine should also be done, should not be ignored.
