Remark 1: It is recommended to use air or nitrogen for cutting carbon steel 1-6mm. The cutting speed is faster than using oxygen, and there will be slight slag hanging.
Remark 2: Depending on the on-site gas purity, plate quality, etc., the power used for debugging and the speed of debugging will also be different.
Remark 3: Copper needs to be cut with high-pressure oxygen. Using other gases for cutting may risk damaging the laser.

Note: The actual batch cutting, affected by machine tools, systems, cutting head, air pressure, materials and other factors, the data may be changed, the asterisks marked parameters in the table are proofing parameters, in the actual processing is greatly affected by various factors, only suitable for small batch production, mass production and processing is not recommended, it is recommended to use higher power laser.
