Machine
Laser has been applied in teaching, military as well as industrial
production. Laser cutting machine is one of the applications. It can be
used in both metal and non-metal cutting, Melting surface material by
laser beam. This article will discuss the work theory of laser cutting
machine.
when adding oxygen in laser beam, the cutting thickness is 810mm but
it will generate a thin oxidation film in the cut surface. The maximum
thickness is 16mm which leads to larger cutting deviation on the size of
components.
Since the advent of laser, numerous laser products have been developed,
such as laser printer, laser cosmetic instrument, laser marker, laser
cutting machine etc. Due to its late start in China, the laser technology
in China is greatly behind the developed countries. Although Chinese
manufacturers can produce plenty of laser products, some key parts such
as laser tube, driving motor, galvanometer and focus lens are imported
products. This leads to an increase on cost thus an increase on consumer's
payment.
In recent years, domestic research and production of
laser products
become closer to advanced overseas products with the progress of laser
technology in China. Some aspects are even superior to products abroad,
which has a leading role in market because of the
advantages of price.
Overseas products have absolute predominance in precision machining for
its quality on stability and endurance.
a hole is formed in the laser active area and laser beams reflex several
times in the hole to increase the absorption of laser by material.
When high-pressure vapors spray outward, the melted materials are blown
away in the kerf till the workpiece is finally cut. Vaporization cutting
needs very high power density, which is eighth power of ten watt above
per square centimeter. It is usually applied in low flash point materials
and refractory materials.
The quality is valued by the surface fragments and size of heat affect
area.
Cold Chipping
It is a new processing method, which is put forward along with ultraviolet
band superpower excimer laser appeared in recent years. The basic theory
is that energy of ultraviolet photons is similar to binding energy of many
organic materials; this high-energy photons are used to impact bond
organic materials thus make it crack, achieving purpose of cutting. This
new technology has promising application future, especially in electron
industry.
Thermal Stress Cutting
Mechanism of thermal stress cutting is that laser beams heat an area of
fragile material to produce evident temperature gradient. The high
surface temperature makes expansion and inner lower temperature hinders
expansion, forming pulling stress in the surface and radial crushing
stress inside. When the two stresses exceed fracture limit strength of
the workpiece, crackle appears. And then the workpiece is broken along
the normal direction of the crack. It is suitable for glasses and ceramics.
Conclusion: laser cutting machine is a cutting technology of melting and
gasifying surface material through focused energy generated by the use
of laser specialties and focused lens. It features good cutting quality,
high speed, various cutting material and high efficiency.
