Types and Application of Cutting Machine

There are many types of cutting machine according to the cutting material can be divided into metal laser cutting machine and non-metal laser cutting machine. The laser cutting machine can be divided into fibre laser cutting machine, CO2 laser cutting machine. Different type of cutting machines have different uses.

1. According to the cut material type classification

There are two types of metal laser cutting machine and non-metal laser cutting machine. This is very specific. The metal laser cutting machine only can cut metal materials. The non-metal laser cutting machine only can cut non-metallic materials.

2. Classification by laser type

According to the laser cutting machine, the type classification can be divided into fibre laser cutting machine, CO2 gas cutting machine, and has been eliminated YAG laser cutting machine three years. Now the mainstream type of laser cutting machine in the domestic market is fibre laser cutting machine.

3. Classification according to the laser output power

According to the classification of laser output power can be divided into high power laser cutting machine, medium power laser cutting machine, low power laser cutting machine three types. Different applications require different laser output power, in the industrial field, to high-power fibre laser cutting machine, while in the field of laser engraving, to medium-power laser engraving and cutting machine.

4. According to the cutting plate width classification

According to the cutting plate width classification cutting plate width can be divided into standard and large format two types, so the laser cutting machine can also be divided into standard format laser cutting machine, large format laser cutting machine two types. Large format laser cutting machine X-axis cutting length of more than 8000mm, Y-axis cutting width of more than 2500mm, while the standard format cutting machine cutting area is generally 3000mmx1500mm, 4000mmx2000mm.

5. Classification according to the geometry of the cutting plate

Cutting plate type can be divided into flat plate and three-dimensional plate, flat plate is generally cut with a flat laser cutting machine, while three-dimensional plate can be cut with a robot laser cutting machine, three-dimensional five-axis laser cutting machine for cutting and processing.

6. According to the cutting machine structure form classification

According to the cutting machine structure form classification can be divided into cantilever laser cutting machine and gantry laser cutting machine two kinds. Cantilever laser cutting machine adopts open structure, easy loading and unloading, and lower cost, by the small and medium-sized owners of the welcome. Gantry laser cutting machine adopts bilateral drive mode, good dynamic performance, high cutting efficiency, stable and reliable long-term operation.

7. Classification according to the size of the laser cutting machine

Classified by the size of the laser cutting machine can be divided into small laser cutting machine and large laser cutting machine, general advertising signs, metal crafts and other industries use small laser cutting machine, large laser cutting machine is mainly used in the rice gold processing, aerospace, machinery manufacturing and other industries.

Application of cutting machine

The metal laser cutting machine suitable for cutting stainless steel plate, iron plate and other material features ranging from the thinner-softer aluminium to the thicker-tougher stainless and high strength carbon steel. In addition can also be used for metal laser graving, printing and other fields.
