Fiber laser machine for metal has the following advantages:
- Idle speed of Wattsan metal cutters, depending on the machine model, ranges from 80 to 120 m/min. The process speed with thin metals can reach up to 60 m/min. Such indicators guarantee record performance in comparison with other types of metal cutting.
- The efficiency of a fiber laser is >40%, a figure unattainable with any other method of metal cutting. This is achieved because fiber-optic emitters generate monochrome coherent radiation with minimal divergence and a stable radiation frequency. The wavelength is 1.064 microns and is optimal for interaction with metals.
- The material does not overheat due to the properties of the laser beam, especially when it comes to thin metal. Therefore, it is possible to cut even the most complex products with jewelry precision, without fear that the metal will deform.
- No scale is formed on the material face, so the metal does not require post-processing.
- Precision cutting of contours of any complexity is achieved due to the small diameter of the laser beam and the repositioning accuracy of 0.02 mm. The sheet material blanks can be positioned butt to each other, thus saving material.
- Numerical Control (CNC) minimizes the probability of rejects and guarantees one hundred percent repeatability of products.
- The service life of fiber emitters reaches 100,000 hours, which is more than 11 years.
Laser metal machines require minimal maintenance, they are easy to integrate into the production process, including laser work, new personnel can be quickly trained.
