Laser cutting machine has been more and more widely used in life and production. Now, it is not only used in the production and life of traditional industries. It is also used in the design of fashion products. For example, in the current textile and clothing industry, luggage, shoes, craft gifts, household goods, electronic appliances, lighting and other industries. What are the advantages and characteristics of laser cutting leather?
Cutting leather with laser cutting machine
1. Environment friendly and flexible
In the current market, the biggest advantage of leather cutting machine is its environmental protection and flexibility. The cutting process only depends on electricity and will not produce waste water. Moreover, any graphics can be freely designed by the computer, and the size of the design can be accurate to mm, which greatly reduces the waste of materials to a certain extent.
2. Narrow slit and small deformation of workpiece
The laser beam of the laser cutting machine is focused on a small light spot and has high power density. At this time, the heat input by the beam far exceeds the part reflected, conducted or diffused by the material, and the material is rapidly heated and evaporated to form a hole. When the light beam moves linearly with the material, the hole continuously forms a narrow gap. The trimming is least affected by heat, and there is basically no workpiece deformation. In addition, leather laser cutting has no burrs, wrinkles and high precision, which is superior to plasma cutting. In many electromechanical manufacturing industries, modern laser cutting systems controlled by microcomputers can easily cut workpieces of different shapes and sizes. Although they are slower than dies, they are generally preferable to dies and molding processes. More importantly, it has the characteristics of no mold consumption, no need to repair the mold, saving the time to replace the mold, thus saving the processing cost and reducing the production cost. It is more cost-effective to choose it.
3. High energy, density controlled, non-contact processing
Laser beam focusing forms very small points with very strong energy, and its application in cutting has many functions.
First, the laser energy is converted into amazing heat energy in a very small area, thus providing narrow straight edge slits, the smallest trimming adjacent heat affected zone and the smallest local deformation.
Secondly, it is a non-contact cutting tool, which means that the workpiece has no mechanical deformation, no tool wear and no tool conversion problem. In addition, the hardness of the cutting material need not be considered. In other words, it can cut materials of any hardness.
Third, the laser beam is highly controllable, with high adaptability and flexibility. Therefore, it is convenient to combine with automatic equipment, and the cutting process is also easy to achieve automation. Since there is no limit to cutting the workpiece, the laser beam has unlimited cutting capacity.
