The so-called metal cutting machine, also known as metal laser cutting machine, uses the energy released when the laser beam irradiates the surface of the metal workpiece to melt and evaporate the metal workpiece, thereby achieving the purpose of cutting or engraving. It has the characteristics of high precision, fast cutting speed, not limited by cutting patterns, automatic typesetting to save materials, smooth cutting, and low processing cost.

The metal cutting machine has the characteristics of high precision, fast cutting, not limited to cutting pattern restrictions, automatic typesetting to save materials, smooth incision, and low processing cost.

The new generation of metal cutting machines mainly includes four parts: solid laser cutting machine body, high-power laser power supply, water cooler and computer console. It has the characteristics of compact structure, easy operation, stable optical path and unique functions.

The principle of metal cutting machine:

The laser of the metal cutting machine uses a hernia lamp as an excitation source to output a high-energy, high-density laser beam, which is concentrated on the surface of the metal material, causing the area on the material illuminated by the light spot to melt and vaporize locally and instantly. The computer controls the CNC mechanical system to move the light spot irradiation position to achieve automatic cutting.

1. Characteristics of solid-state laser cutting machine

1. The gantry structure is reasonable and the optical path is stable.

The solid-state laser cutting machine adopts gantry structure, beam projection method, and the overall structure is solid, changing the previous cantilever structure. It has the advantages of small area, light weight, anti-deformation, and high precision. The laser component of the solid-state laser cutting machine consists of a mechanical following cutting head and a laser optical path component. The optical path of the mechanical follower head and the laser optical path are a complete independent optical path system. The optical path system is designed using German technology, with stable optical path and high efficiency. The gantry type is more stable than the cantilever type optical path in the past.

2. Highly sensitive follow-up laser cutting head imported from the United States

The solid-state laser cutting machine uses a mechanical follow-up cutting head imported from the American Ji Company. The locking ring of the cutting head is in contact with the surface of the metal plate, and the cutting head moves up and down along with the height of the metal plate surface to achieve equal focal length cutting. The cutting head has the advantages of high sensitivity, stable movement and good reliability. When cutting the metal plate, there are no obvious sparks flying on the surface of the metal plate, which avoids the sensitivity reduction or misoperation of the traditional induction ranging cutting head due to air medium changes or electromagnetic field interference, resulting in a decrease in the cutting quality of the workpiece or the cutting head being damaged by collision.

3. The control cabinet directly controls the power supply and is easy to operate.

The unique design of the control cabinet includes the entire operating system, thereby changing the complex design of independent power supply operation in the past, and the power supply parameters, such as current, frequency and pulse width, can be directly set by the control system.

4. The light path of the metal cutting machine is adjustable, making it easy to change lights and rods.

Due to the cantilever moving structure adopted by the solid-state laser cutting machine, when adjusting the light path, the beam mechanism only needs to be moved to the edge of the nail bed. The operator can directly adjust the light path or replace the lamp and rod next to the beam mechanism.
