Is the aluminum plate laser cutting machine expensive?

Aluminum plate is a material often used in processing and production, so it must involve the blanking and forming process. As a modern advanced metal forming equipment, aluminum plate laser cutting machine has been widely used in the processing market due to its advantages of high flexibility and fast forming efficiency. So, many people will ask: Is the aluminum plate laser cutting machine expensive?

The working principle of the aluminum plate laser cutting machine is to melt and evaporate the workpiece through the energy released when the laser beam irradiates the surface of the workpiece to achieve the purpose of cutting and carving. It has the characteristics of high accuracy, fast cutting, not limited to cutting patterns, automatic typesetting, saving materials, smooth cutting, low processing costs, and will gradually improve or replace the traditional cutting process equipment.

However, aluminum, as a special material in metal materials, has high reflectivity and low laser absorption, so it is very difficult to cut by laser. So in order to improve the cutting ability of aluminum plate, the power of aluminum plate laser cutting machine is very important.

The common medium and small power in our market is 500W-1KW, but the power that can cut aluminum plate is 1KW. In addition, the light reflected by the aluminum plate will cause certain loss to the laser. Basically, many laser manufacturers will mark the high thickness of cutting aluminum plate. If the laser is damaged due to long-term overload cutting, the manufacturer will not guarantee it. Therefore, it is recommended to select aluminum plate laser cutting machine with higher power to keep the margin as much as possible.

How much is the price of aluminum plate laser cutting machine? The price of aluminum plate laser cutting machine is determined according to the power. The higher the power, the higher the price.
