With the continuous development and application of laser cutting technology, many industrial fields have higher and higher requirements for laser cutting machines. Among the many parameters, air pressure has received more and more attention as one of the important factors affecting the cutting effect.
Laser cutting machine generates high temperature on the surface of the material by focusing the laser beam, and then realizes cutting. In order to improve the cutting accuracy and ensure the smooth running of the cutting process, the setting of air pressure is crucial. Generally speaking, laser cutting machines require a certain amount of air assistance during the working process, which not only helps to remove the slag generated during the cutting process, but also effectively reduces the failure rate of the equipment and improves the overall cutting quality.
When using a laser cutting machine, air pressure is usually divided into two types: cutting air pressure and auxiliary air pressure. Cutting air pressure refers to the spraying of air through the nozzle during the cutting process to help eliminate slag, reduce oxidation reactions, and increase cutting speed. Auxiliary air pressure is mainly used to protect the laser head, reduce the interference of dust and impurities on the laser beam, keep the optical path clean, and ensure that the laser works stably for a long time.
According to the analysis of industry experts, cutting air pressure is too low will lead to the slag can not be effectively discharged, which in turn affects the quality of the cutting surface, burrs and uneven phenomenon. On the contrary, too high a pressure may lead to too strong a gas shock, affecting the cutting accuracy and even causing damage to the equipment. Therefore, reasonable air pressure settings for different materials and cutting needs is critical.
For common metal materials, such as stainless steel and aluminum alloys, a higher air pressure is usually required to ensure the cutting effect, while for thin plate materials, the air pressure can be appropriately reduced. For high-precision cutting, the laser cutting machine can also be equipped with a gas flow regulation system to achieve more precise air pressure control.
In recent years, with the rise of intelligent manufacturing technology, more and more laser cutting machines are equipped with automatic air pressure adjustment system, which not only improves the ease of operation during the cutting process, but also makes the cutting effect more stable. With the assistance of intelligent systems, operators can quickly adjust the air pressure according to different process requirements, so as to obtain the best cutting results.
In the future, with the continuous progress of laser cutting technology, the application of air pressure in cutting machines will become more accurate and intelligent. Experts predict that with the continuous optimization of the equipment, the laser cutting machine will be more widely used in various industries, providing a strong impetus for the innovative development of the manufacturing industry.
In general, the air pressure of laser cutting machine not only directly affects the cutting quality, but also is closely related to the stability, productivity and maintenance cost of the equipment. Correctly set and adjust the air pressure is one of the important factors to improve the cutting effect and extend the service life of the equipment.
