With the continuous development of society, the demand for laser cutting machines in various industries is also growing. In order to meet the needs of different industries, the types of laser cutting machines are also increasing. The cutting thickness is an important indicator of the laser cutting machine’s capabilities. The specific cutting thickness is affected by many factors. The following are the factors that affect the specific thickness that a 6000W laser cutting machine can cut:
Material type:
Different types of materials have different absorption and reflectivity of laser, so their cutting thickness is also different. For example, metallic materials with higher laser absorption rates (such as carbon steel and stainless steel) can cut thicker materials, while non-metallic materials with lower laser absorption rates (such as plastics and wood) can cut relatively small thicknesses.
Material Thickness:
The actual thickness of the material is a key factor in cutting ability. Generally speaking, the thicker the material, the greater the laser power required and the cutting speed will slow down accordingly.
Laser Power:
Laser power is a key factor in the cutting capabilities of a laser cutting machine. The higher the power, the better the cutting capability and quality. Therefore, a 6000W laser cutting machine can cut thicker materials than a lower power laser cutting machine.
Cutting speed and gas type:
Proper cutting speed and gas type can improve cutting quality and efficiency. Adjusting cutting speed and choosing the right gas type can make a laser cutter better able to handle materials of different thicknesses.
Performance advantages of 6000W laser cutting machine
Compared with the 3000W fiber laser cutting machine, the cutting speed of the 6000W laser cutting machine is increased by 140% to 330%, showing higher work efficiency.
Generally speaking, the specific thickness that a 6000W laser cutting machine can cut is affected by many factors, including material type, material thickness, laser power, cutting speed, and gas type. In practical applications, it needs to be adjusted and optimized according to specific conditions to obtain the best cutting effect. When purchasing, comprehensively consider factors such as brand reputation, technical parameters, safety standards, and after-sales service to ensure that you purchase high-quality laser cutting equipment that meets your needs.
