What does the cutting accuracy of metal laser cutting machine depend on?

As we all know, cutting accuracy is an important part of measuring the quality of laser cutting machines. In fact, the accuracy of metal laser cutting machines is not entirely determined by the equipment itself, but by various factors. Xinquanli Laser helps you analyze several factors that affect the accuracy of laser cutting. According to the analysis of our laser professional technicians, there are mainly the following factors:
1、 We all know that the laser beam is conical, so the slit cut is also conical. In this case, the thickness of 0.3MM stainless steel will be much smaller than that of 2MM. This is a major factor affecting the cutting accuracy of metal laser cutting machine – it depends on the shape of the laser beam. Under the condition of this conical laser beam, the greater the thickness of the workpiece, the lower the accuracy will be, so the larger the slit.
2、 When the tapered laser beams are gathered together, the spot will become smaller and smaller, so the accuracy of the laser cutting will become higher and higher, especially the width of the slit will become smaller and smaller. According to our professional laser technician, the small spot can reach 0.01mm at this time. This is also one of the factors that affect the cutting accuracy of the laser cutting machine.
3、 In fact, even simple worktables and high-precision worktables can lead to high-precision laser cutting effects.
4、 In this case, the cutting accuracy of different materials is slightly different. Even for the same material, if the composition of the material is different, the cutting accuracy will also be different. Therefore, the workpiece material also has a certain impact on the laser cutting accuracy.
