Fiber laser cutting machine is a new type of metal sheet processing equipment in the market. Its processing principle is to produce high-energy laser beam through the laser and focus it on the surface of metal material, so that the irradiated part of the plate will melt instantly and play a cutting effect.
Numerical control punch is an automatic machine tool controlled by computer program. Compared with traditional cutting equipment, numerical control punch has certain advantages in accuracy and cost. Only a simple mold matching can complete most of the work.
Laser cutting machine, as an efficient processing equipment, can completely replace the traditional cutting equipment. What is the difference between laser cutting machine and CNC punch?
1. Cutting speed
According to the actual laser field test results, the cutting speed of the laser cutting machine is more than 10 times that of the traditional cutting equipment. For example, when cutting 1mm stainless steel plate, the maximum speed of the laser cutting machine can reach more than 30 meters per minute, which is impossible for traditional cutting machines.
2. Cutting quality and accuracy
Numerical control punch is a contact type processing method, which has great damage to materials and low cutting quality. It must be processed twice to make the surface flat and the cutting accuracy deviation is large. The laser cutting machine is a non-contact mechanic, and the damage to materials is almost zero. Because the laser cutting machine uses advanced accessories, the equipment is more stable in operation and the cutting accuracy is more accurate. The error even reaches the accuracy of 0.015mm, and the cutting surface is smooth. For some industries with high requirements, not only the cost but also the processing time is saved.
3. Easier and convenient operation
The CNC punch needs manual intervention in the operation of the machine. In particular, the CNC punch needs to design the mold before cutting. The laser cutting machine only needs to design the cutting pattern in the computer, and any complex pattern can be transferred to the workbench of the laser cutting machine, and the equipment will automatically process the whole process automatically without manual intervention.
