How thick can laser cutting machines of different power cut plates?



The laser cutting machine includes stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, aluminum plate, silver, copper, titanium and other metal materials.

For different metal materials, the cutting thickness of different power laser cutting machine has a great relationship with the cutting material. 1000 watts, 2000 watts… How thick can laser cutting machines of various powers cut?

In general, the thickness limit values for different laser cutting machine power to cut various materials are as follows:

(For reference only, the actual cutting capacity is also related to the quality of the cutting machine, cutting environment, auxiliary gas, cutting speed and other factors)

1. The maximum thickness of 500W fiber laser cutting machine for cutting different materials: the maximum thickness of carbon steel is 6mm; The maximum thickness of stainless steel is 3mm; The maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 2mm; The maximum thickness of copper plate is 2mm;

2. Maximum thickness of 1000W fiber laser cutting machine for cutting different materials: maximum thickness of carbon steel 10mm; The maximum thickness of stainless steel is 5mm; The maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 3mm; The maximum thickness of copper plate is 3mm;

3. Maximum thickness of 2000W fiber laser cutting machine for cutting different materials: maximum thickness of carbon steel 16mm; The maximum thickness of stainless steel is 8mm; The maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 5mm; The maximum thickness of copper plate is 5mm;

4. Maximum thickness of 3000W fiber laser cutting machine for cutting different materials: maximum thickness of carbon steel 20mm; The maximum thickness of stainless steel is 10mm; The maximum thickness of aluminum plate is 8mm; The maximum thickness of copper plate is 8mm;

5.4500W laser cutting stainless steel has a maximum of 20mm, but the quality of cutting surfaces above 12mm is not guaranteed, and cutting surfaces below 12mm is definitely bright. The cutting ability of 6000W will be better, but the price is also higher.

In the process of practical application, the cutting ability of the fiber laser cutting machine is also related to the quality of the cutting machine, the type of laser, the cutting environment, the cutting speed and other factors, and the use of auxiliary gas can also improve the cutting ability, so there is no absolute standard to judge the cutting thickness. For example, the cutting of carbon steel mainly depends on oxygen combustion, and the cutting of two stainless steel mainly depends on power. General 1000w fiber laser cutting machine can cut about 10mm of carbon steel plate, stainless steel plate is a little difficult to cut, if you want to improve the cutting thickness, it is at the expense of edge effect and speed.
