Laser has been developed for more than 60 years. It is known as “the fastest knife, the most accurate ruler, and the brightest light” and is widely evaluated in the fields of industry, medical treatment, commerce, scientific research, information and military. With the development of the times, laser cutting technology has been continuously used in various industries of housings, forming a strong influence and change in some major industries. The most influential one is mainly reflected in sheet metal processing.
Laser multi function application Taking sheet metal processing to a new level
In the field of sheet metal processing, there are various types of laser processes, mainly including laser cutting, laser welding, laser drilling, laser cleaning, etc. Therefore, many product categories have also been formed, such as: fiber laser cutting machine, fiber laser pipe cutting machine, fiber laser cutting machine, etc. Laser welding machine, fiber laser marking machine, laser cleaning machine, etc. Moreover, laser technology has gradually replaced traditional processing methods and become the new favorite of the sheet metal processing industry with its advantages of fast speed, high flexibility, high efficiency, good quality, small thermal impact, powerful functions, and high degree of automation.
As laser technology continues to mature, laser power continues to upgrade, from lower power like 700W to the current 12000W even 60000W. Laser equipment is more capable of handling various profiles and various process requirements. Therefore, the application fields are becoming more and more extensive, and the speed of popularization is also increasing. faster and faster. Therefore, it can be said that the application of laser has truly improved the quality, reduced costs and increased efficiency of sheet metal processing, brought about a qualitative change in metal processing, and also set off a new technological revolution in sheet metal processing.
Laser technology development Accelerate the realization of intelligent and unmanned processing industry
The wide application of laser equipment in sheet metal processing has benefited the majority of factory owners a lot. In particular, it can achieve a complete high degree of automation, and intelligent operation can greatly reduce manual intervention and processing time, and improve work efficiency. The power transfer processing method is complex, inefficient, and wasteful, and the pass rate is not high. After the introduction of laser equipment, the processing that required several processes can now be completed in one go, without the need for secondary processing, and the yield rate and pass rate can reach 100%. And batch processing can be achieved. For companies with large processing volumes, the application of laser equipment is simply a blessing.
Laser technology has realized the automation of industrial production, which has brought many beneficial effects. Automated processing is only one of them. What is more, it can increase production capacity and quality, reduce labor costs, material costs, development costs and other costs, and in It will have a more competitive advantage when dealing with various customer orders and create more opportunities for the sheet metal processing industry.
Ultra-high power laser appears Laser technology makes the world a better place
The most widely used laser in the field of metal processing is laser cutting. With the rapid development of laser craftsmanship and technology, the end market demand has become diversified, and the processing trend of medium-thick plates and large pipes has shown significant growth. These have stimulated the light cutting process. Moving towards over the 12KW level, ultra high power fiber laser plate cutting machines and ultra high power fiber laser pipe cutting machines are already very common on the market, and the technology and services are also very mature. The birth and application of ultra high power laser equipment fully meets the needs of engineering construction, Complex industrial demands such as heavy machinery, aerospace, and automobile manufacturing have driven the rapid development of global industry. Through deep participation in industrial construction, Ultra high power Laser Intelligent Solutions allows us to feel that laser technology is making the world a better place at a rapid speed.
All in all, the development trend of laser-empowered sheet metal processing industry is unstoppable. It is a wise choice to buy laser equipment, and early choice will benefit early.
