1. What are the benefits of laser cutting in sheet metal fabrication?
- Non-contact press
In laser cutting, with the use of intense heat, the laser beam cuts through the material without physical contact, which minimizes the risk of potential damage.
- Incredible precision
Lasers are designed to produce highly accurate and precise cuttings characterized by clean cuts and smooth finishes.
- Enhance material yield
Lasers cutting allows us to achieve enhanced material yield through the tight nesting of parts and narrow kerf width.
2. Laser Cutting: What Is It?
Laser cutting is a fabrication method that can be used on metal and other materials such as plastic. This method typically uses optics and CNC (computer numerical control) to direct a high-powered laser to make the required cut(s).
A commercial laser cutting machine uses a motion control system to cut into the material according to a CNC or G-code of the pattern. The focused laser beam is directed at the material, which is then burned, melted, vaporized, or is blown away by a jet of gas, leaving an edge with a high-quality surface finish.
