Choosing a Fiber Laser Cutting Machine(3)

 CO2 laser generator is by far the most common fiber laser cutting machine choice for home and small businesses. They cost anywhere from a few hundred dollars to $10,000 and are capable of cutting wood and acrylic as well as thinner materials like cardboard. CO2 lasers are much larger than diode lasers, which means they require more tabletop or floor space. They also require more aggressive cooling than diode lasers, adding to the cost, size and complexity of the machine.

Fiber Laser Generator is the most expensive option, often costing over $10,000 for entry-level cutters alone. However, they offer faster cutting speeds and are also capable of cutting metal. While fiber lasers are not an economical option for most hobbyist or small business users, they are the only option if you need to cut metal.
What are the space requirements for a fiber laser cutting machine?
Fiber laser cutting machines range in size from small desktops to professional-grade machines that require a lot of workshop space. For a consumer or prosumer machine, you need an area at least the size of a large table or desk. You'll also need a way to vent your fiber laser cutter outside. The laser cutting process creates fumes and odors that you don't want in your home or shop space, especially when cutting acrylic. Ventilation can be installed in your home through open windows, or more permanently with a ventilation solution similar to a dryer.

3000W IPG fiber laser cutting machine work demonstration

Image
  This is a customized fiber laser cutting machine , its worktable size is 1500×6000mm, which is specially customized for users to process longer metal plates. The video shows the process of 3000W fiber laser cutting machine AKJ1560F cutting stainless steel plate and carbon steel plate with different thickness. The following introduces its features to you.   AKJ1560 fiber laser cutting machine is equipped with 3000W IPG fiber laser. The biggest feature of IPG fiber laser cutting machine is that it can cut highly reflective metal materials, such as copper, aluminum and other metals. It is well known that highly reflective metals have low absorption rates for laser light. When an ordinary laser cutting machine cuts aluminum, the light that cannot be absorbed by the aluminum is reflected on the lens and then transmitted to the fiber laser. In this case, not only the lens loss is large, but also the damage to the laser is large, which will seriously shorten the life of the fiber l...

How to make non-metal materials not dust during laser cutting（3）

  The design and functional requirements of non -metallic material laser cutting dust treatment purifier: 1. In the case of treating non -metallic materials to restore dust, the dust purification equipment has effective filtration functions and strong oily and anti -positive. 2. In order to handle odor dust, laser eliminate dust equipment must have carbon adsorption function, which is activated to effectively handle odor dust. 3. Because dust can change complex changes through factors such as other materials, density, temperature, and spatial characteristics. Therefore, it is necessary to retain the elimination of dust equipment to design the preliminary process of external accessories.
