What is the fiber laser cutting machine?
A fiber laser cutting machine is a mechanical CNC cutting machine that uses a fiber laser beam to cut materials. Its high-energy-density laser beam comes from the fiber laser generator and transmits by fiber cables instead of optical lenses. The wavelength of the fiber laser cutting system is 1.06um, which can be absorbed by most metal materials. So a fiber laser cutter is mainly for cutting a wide range of metals, such as steel, aluminum, brass, titanium, nickel, etc.

Fiber laser cutter VS CO2 laser cutting machine?

CO2 laser cutting machine is also a commonly used laser cutting machine for industrial purposes. But in actual use, there are big differences between a CO2 laser cutting machine and sheet metal laser cutting equipment. The differences mainly include the following aspects.

1. Laser generator

The CO2 laser generator is a kind of gas molecular laser. It uses CO2 gas as the medium and transmits the laser beam through reflective lenses. However, fiber laser cutting machines work with diodes and fiber optic cables for beam transmission. The reflective lenses in the CO2 laser technology have to act at a certain distance. While the CNC fiber laser is not subject to such limitations.

2. Electro-optical conversion rate

Fiber laser cutting system is the latest laser technology. Its solid-state laser generator is more efficient than a CO2 laser. The electro-optical conversion rate of a CO2 laser cutter is only 8%-10%. However, that rate of a fiber laser cutter can be as high as 30%. In other words, the overall energy consumption of a metal laser cutting machine is 3-5 times lower than that of a CO2 laser cutter. So the fiber laser machine is more energy-efficient.

3. Cutting ability

Fiber laser has the property of short wavelength, thus improving the absorption of the beam by the cutting material. The fiber laser beam is more suitable for transmission in the fine and soft fiber. So it is more flexible and easier to maintain than the CO2 laser transmission with mirror reflection. A 3KW fiber laser cutting machine is equivalent to a 4-5KW CO2 laser cutting machine in terms of cutting capacity and speed. So the metal laser cutter can greatly reduce operating costs.

4. Maintenance cost

As a CO2 laser cutter has a complex laser structure, its subsequent maintenance cost is relatively high. The CO2 laser cutting system requires regular cleaning, and the reflective lenses also require frequent cleaning and calibration. Due to the CO2 gas purity, you need to maintain the resonant cavity regularly. However, a CNC metal laser cutter doesn’t require the above maintenance, saving a large amount of cost.

5. Application

Fiber laser cutting machine is mainly for metal cutting, such as mild or carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum and its alloys, brass, copper, titanium, etc. While the Co2 CNC laser cutting machine is good at cutting non-metallic materials. It is now a solution to cut or engrave acrylic, wood, MDF, glass, etc.

What Is Laser Cutting?

The processes used forlaser cutting – laser flame cutting, laser fusion cutting and sublimation cutting – are dependent on the material. For laser flame cutting, oxygen is used as a cutting gas and as an additional energy supplier, whereby combustion is generated in a specific place when the material is melted using a laser. For laser fusion cutting, on the other hand, metal is fused under the influence of the heat from the laser beam. The special thing about sublimation cutting is that the laser causes the material to be immediately vaporised without having to pass into a liquid state. This creates a particular fine, burr-free cut.

Laser cutting instead of cnc milling?

CNC stands for “computerised numerical control” and means that the milling machine can process a diverse range of materials via computer-assisted numerical control. The drawback of this technology is that it is very high-maintenance. Time and again there are follow-up costs for milling as new tools need to be bought regularly. Laser cutting, by contrast, impresses due to the fact that even intensive material processing does not result in wear and tear to the laser. Even the smallest shapes and patterns can be cut or engraved precisely using a laser. There are no maintenance costs for laser technology, which guarantees optimal cost control for businesses. By contrast, CNC milling without maintenance is not possible. Investment in a high-quality IGOLDENLaser laser machine usually pays for itself quickly.

With a laser engraver for metal?

From the personalization of individual gifts or various advertising materials to industrial labeling – a laser engraver for metal laser engraving offers a wide range of applications and a variety of advantages over a classic engraving machine. Because in strong contrast to CNC engraving machines, the processing of the material by laser is completely contactless and therefore much more gentle, cheaper and sustainable! In addition, with the modern laser engravers from IGOLDENLaser, both soft and hard metals can be laser engraved and marked precisely, permanently and efficiently.
