Fiber laser machine in steel work industry

It is the time to upgrade your carbon laser cutting machine

XT LASER, provide rich series products fiber laser marking & cutting machine series for all kinds steel work. And while you may be initially searching for a YAG laser now, what you’ll find is that you really need a fiber laser system instead. With the advances in the industry, YAG technology has become out of style, and the best way to improve your facility’s marking capabilities is by investing in fiber lasers.

The difference between YAG & FIBER LASER

1.Maintenance cost

Although fiber’s purchase cost is a bit higher than fiber, it’s after-sales maintenance cost will be much higher than fiber’s;
Due to YAG’S complex and instable light path;
The lighting tube and crystal in YAG, need to be changed regularly, which is up to $1,500 every time;

2.Photoelectric conversion rate

YAG’s photoelectric conversion rate is only  2%; while fiber’s will reach to 25%;

3.Power consumption

YAG’s power consumption is 2 times than fiber’s;
Taking 1000w machine as an example, for 1000W YAG, it’s power consumption is up to 15 kilowatt/ hour; while Fiber’s is the 15-16 kilowatt / hour merely;

4. Cutting precision

YAG’s cutting presion is lower than Fiber’s;

5. Cutting speed

YAG’s cutting speed is lower than Fiber’s;
YAG’S cutting effect is also lower than Fiber’s; the materials cut by YAG, need secondary processing, which will reduce the producing effciency;

6. Output power

YAG‘ soutput power is 500w/600w; while Fiber’s are 400w/500w/1000w/2000w;

7. Flexible manufacturing ability

YAG’s flexible manufacturer ability is lower than Fiber’s;

YAG Lasers

These lasers are also known as flash lamp or lamp-pumped lasers, as they utilize a lamp (bulb) as a pumping mechanism and a YAG crystal as the gain medium. Both reside in an optical resonator, typically a gold-plated cavity, which provides reflection of the light and helps with the process of creating the laser light.

Fiber Lasers

iber lasers utilize semiconductor diodes as the pumping mechanism and a doped fiber optic cable as the gain medium. In a fiber laser, the doped fiber optic serves as the resonator. Fiber lasers are the most reliable laser technology available today for material processing applications, offering the best combination of reliability and marking capability.

Finally, many pros of a fiber laser include:

  • Highest beam quality
  • Air cooled with high ambient air temperature operating capabilities
  • Very efficient with low power consumption
  • Longest diode life (Up to 100,000 hours)
  • Extended warranties over other technologies (TYKMA Electrox 3-year warranty)
  • MOPA design of TYKMA Electrox fibers allows for maximum application flexibility
  • High peak power and long pulse durations are good for high-speed aggressive marking and deep engraving applications
  • Easy to integrate and service

How To Improve Laser Marking Efficiency

To improve laser marking efficiency, there are some methods to achieve it. And to improve the efficiency is very important for some customers. I will talk about how to improve it by this chapter.

Fiber laser marking machine is a new marking craft without pollution and energy consumption. To bring higher production efficiency and create higher value to the enterprise is also the main goal of this kind of machine. To achieve how can speed it up, we have been exploring all the time. But how to improve the marking speed of fiber laser marking machine?

Factors

The main influence factors of fiber laser marking machine are divided into internal factors and work piece processing factors.

The internal factors are mainly laser frequency, laser spot mode and beam divergence angle, laser power. We should be pay attention to internal factors when selecting and selecting the early models. And we should also follow the opinions of laser engineers to select and purchase the models.

Another factor that we need to pay attention to during customer processing is mainly marking density, marking width, marking depth and laser spot size.
Under the conditions of the same width, the same light spot and the same depth, the higher the marking density, the slower the corresponding marking speed. The reason is that the density directly increases the marking area.

Marking Format

Because the deflection area of the galvanometer for large-format marking increases, the marking speed of large-format is slower than that of small-format marking.

Marking Depth

To achieve marking with depth, we must let the machine repeat over and over again, the laser move once, will left a 0.01mm depth on surface.  So for example, you want mark on some metal with 1mm depth, then the laser must move 100 times.

So how to improve it?

To select a small-amplitude field mirror within a suitable range. And controling the density during marking and select a small density within the range that can meet the requirements. The most important is to ensure the daily maintenance of the machine and keep it in good condition.

How to choose the metal cnc laser cutting machine.

Recent years, fiber laser cutting technology,  has been more widely used. Fiber laser cutting machine technology has been quite mature in the cutting industry. Already has a very large market share. But many users are still confusing about how to choose the metal cnc laser cutting machine.

1. The processing of materials and business requirement’s scope

First of all, we have to consider carefully their own business scope. For cnc laser cutting the thickness of the material, it needs to be cut.  And other factors,determine the need to purchase the power of the device size. The the current fiber laser cutting machine on the market from 500W-6000W Room is great. And many buyers need to customize the fiber laser cutter’s working bed.

2. The initial choice of manufacturers

After confirming the cutting requirement. Then we can go to market. To know and learn about the basic parameters and performance will be second steps. Making one cutting test & negotiating the competitive price to compare. Then we can go to the factory to see it’s capacity of metal laser cutter.

We can talk about the machine’s price, training, payment way, after-sales service and so on.

Determine the good needs of the future we can go to the market. Or to buy a fiber laser cutting machine counterparts where to look at the performance of the machine. And the basic parameters. Choose a few have the strength of the price concessions manufacturers pre-communication and proofing, later we can conduct field visits, the price of the machine, machine training, payment methods, after-sales service for more detailed talks.

3. The size of the laser power

In the choice of fiber laser cutting machine performance, we should take full account of their own environment, the size of the laser power is critical, the thickness of the laser cutting power determines the decision, the greater the thickness, the laser power to choose the greater, so for The cost control of enterprises is of great help.

4. The core of fiber laser cutting machine

Fiber laser cutting machine some of the important components, we also need to pay attention to when buying. Especially the laser tube, laser cutting head, servo motor, guide rail, refrigeration system, etc., these components have a direct impact on the fiber laser cutting machine cutting speed and accuracy.

Fiber laser metal cutter and CNC punch press

Comparison of fiber laser metal cutter with CNC punching machine.

1. The laser cutting function can finish all kinds of complicated structures.CNC punch and fiber laser cutting machine

so long as any image can be drawn on the computer, the machine can finish the processing.

2. Do not need to open the mold.

Only make the picture on the computer.CNC punch and fiber laser cutting machine

The product can come out immediately, that is.

Can develop new products quickly, and can save cost.

3. YAG cutting machine has automatic tracking system.

so it can complete plane cutting.

and can also complete various uneven surface cutting.

4. The complicated process requires that the CNC punching machine is difficult to complete.

And laser cutting can be done.

5. The surface is very smooth.

The product class is very high, the CNC punch is difficult to achieve.

6. The shape of the box (within 0.5 m) needs to add to the hole.

The CNC punch not process.

And YAG CNC metal laser cutting function can  solve.

By definition, the cutting mode is different.

The laser cutting machine is cut by laser beam.

And the CNC punching machine needs to  processe by program control.

In the second place:

from processing method.

The numerical control punch processing way is fix.

There are several kinds of commonly use: single shot.

Same direction of continuous cutting.

More in the direction of continuous cutting, eating, forming a single.

continuous molding, array shape.
And the laser cutting machine is flexible.

You want to cut what shape you want to be able to work.

Third, in machining accuracy and processing speed.

laser cutting machine has absolute advantage over CNC punching machine.

Anyhow, CNC punch press and fiber laser cutting machine is, in fact.

So the productivity of a new productivity instead of the old.

so with the development of the era, CNC punch can  wash out gradually.

optical fiber laser cutting machine will gradually favored by the masses of users.
