Comparison between optical fiber laser cutting machine and plasma cutting machine

What are the differences and advantages between optical fiber laser cutting machine and plasma cutting machine? Longtai Laser gives you a detailed introduction:

1. Plasma has been heard and understood by everyone. Plasma machine tool and optical fiber shape are familiar, but the power source is different. Plasma uses the inverter frequency of the welding machine to cut, which requires high-pressure air to bring energy to the cutting plate.

2. Plasma cutting is more suitable for occasions with low precision requirements. Because the plasma is cheap and the thickness of the cut plate is large, it is usually used in the occasion of bulky large pieces without precision requirements.

3. Plasma cutting has a gradient at the cutting edge and burrs are often processed for a second time, so it is generally not an option to do slightly more delicate work, such as advertising sheet metal. After all, the labor cost is getting higher and higher.

4. The plasma generated during the cutting process will produce cutting metal ash and a large amount of smoke. This smoke is harmful to human health, especially now the environmental protection is so strict that it is identified as the old and new equipment exchanged. The previously owned equipment will be removed by spraying water in order to reduce the smoke and dust, so the water will flow onto the plate, which is more unfavorable to the following process, especially the stainless steel that needs to be welded, It is difficult to weld. VS optical fiber cutting machine will not have the above problems. It is a new energy processing equipment mainly promoted by the country at present, so it is an inevitable trend to replace plasma in the future.
