Product type
Sheet metal laser cutters are advanced machines used to cut and shape sheet metal with high precision using laser technology. They typically consist of a laser source, a cutting head, and a motion system that moves the cutting head over the sheet metal. The laser beam melts, burns, or vaporizes the material, allowing for intricate designs and clean edges. These machines are widely utilized in various manufacturing processes due to their efficiency and accuracy.
| Laser Type | Fiber or CO2 |
| Cutting Thickness | Up to 25 mm for mild steel |
| Working Area | Typically ranges from 1m x 1m to 3m x 1.5m |
| Max Cutting Speed | Up to 30 m/min |
| Power Output | 500 W to 6000 W |
| Control System | CNC with advanced software integration |
When choosing a sheet metal laser cutter, consider the material types and thicknesses you will be working with, as well as the required cutting speed and precision. It's important to specify the laser type, power output, and working area dimensions based on your production needs. Additionally, inquire about software compatibility and control systems to ensure they fit your existing processes. Certifications and tolerances may also be relevant depending on industry standards.
