9 Reasons Why You Should Use Laser Cutting Method

Laser cutting was first used for drilling holes
in diamond dies in 1965. It soon evolved, and
people started using it within the aerospace
industry, where various types of lasers were
produced to cut metals and non-metals. This is
basically a popular method of cutting shapes or
designs onto metal sheets or other structural
materials. The laser beams can be easily
directed in the desired way for the required
results. Benefits of Laser Cutting 1.
Flexibility One does not need to have a separate
setup of tools for separate cuts, and intricate
cuts do not cause any problems. You just need to
have one set up and can cut many different
shapes of the same material and thickness.

  • Speed
  • When we talk about complex cuttings, the laser
    cutting method is much quicker than a
    traditional cutting method. For example, if we
    compare thermal cutting methods like
    plasma/flame cutting with laser cutting then the
    cutting slot of the plasma cutting machine is a
    bit larger than the cutting slot of the laser
    cutting machine. This machine has a
    faster-cutting speed that can reach 10m/min, and
    this speed is much faster than the plasma
    cutter.
  • And if your metal cutting process is completed
    earlier than time, then your whole back process
    will move smoothly. Also, it is easier to do
    more in a small amount of time when one has all
    the pieces they need to cut and ready to go.
  • Precision
  • While cutting the materials, accuracy is one of
    the primary features to keep an eye on. And this
    method provides you with the advantage of
    accurate cutting compared to any other thermal
    cutting method. It provides you with an accuracy
    of /-0.1 mm. This leads to a precisely shaped
    cut material in the end. Also, you might need no
    added tolerances while using this method.

  • Repeatability
  • /- 0.05 mm ensures that every other part
    replicates the previous one precisely. For such
    accuracy, you need good quality laser parts like
    Mitsubishi laser parts, Amada laser parts, etc.
  • Automation
  • The laser cutting method is highly automated and
    needs just a small workforce. It needs an
    experienced machine operator that will play a
    big role in the final quality outcome and with a
    little more manual labor at a lower cost. This
    way, it is far more affordable than the other
    cutting methods. Many cutting machines even come
    with feeding systems and follow-up conveyors.
    However, such setups surely make for a
    higher-priced laser cutting machine.
  • Consistency
  • With precision comes consistency. Laser
    programming gives you the same cut every single
    time.
  • Its sure to give you what youre looking for, no
    matter how large or small a piece is. This is a
    great bonus if youre ordering a lot of metal
    pieces at once or if you cant afford to get an
    order shipped to you with a bunch of errors.

  • Quality
  • If you are using the right setup, the laser
    cutters will only leave a small burr. Usually,
    it is not necessary to remove it. However, it
    depends on the quality of the material, its
    thickness, and many other factors. It also has a
    small heat-affected zone (HAZ). As the
    microstructure of the HAZ changes, a smaller HAZ
    area often results in predictable and more
    reliable parts. Don't forget to do a quality
    check regularly. This will help you detect the
    faulty laser parts to replace them with quality
    Mitsubishi replacement parts.
  • Contactless Cutting
  • In this method, only the beam of the laser comes
    into contact with the material. Thus, there is
    no mechanical friction that can possibly wear
    tools.
  • Versatility
  • This method is suitable for many different
    materials like wood, acrylic, MDF, paper, etc.,
    with varying thicknesses. And only one laser
    cutting machine can be used to perform different
    jobs and cut different shapes. However, the
    ability to cut some of these materials totally
    depends on the power of your laser cutting
    machine.

Additionally, laser marking is another way to use
these machines. And laser marking has a lot of
applications while producing everyday
products. Lastly, this technology is suitable
for a variety of profiles. For instance, tube
laser cutting can perform the cutting process on
anything from box sections to open
channels. Conclusion With all the
above-mentioned benefits, we come to the
conclusion that this method is the modern and
popular cutting method. It helps one to cut the
most tricky shapes on the most challenging
materials easily. Thus, installing a laser
cutting machine in your manufacturing company
will save you time and cost by providing
productivity and precise cutting in
return. Make sure you invest in good quality
parts like Mitsubishi laser parts for the
longevity of the machine and accuracy in the
result. Also, for replacing your laser parts, in
any case, they malfunction, then you can go for
Mitsubishi replacement parts. Such quality parts
will match your old machine's requirements
perfectly. Sourcehttps//www.sooperarticles.com/
