What are the Types of Laser Cutting?

There are many types of laser cutting. Depending on the material to be cut, laser cutting types vary. In this context, there are 5 types of laser cutting techniques;

1. CNC Laser Cutting

CNC laser cutting is a technique that performs automatic cutting with CNC codes. Codes and cutting dimensions are entered into the CNC machine using CAD and CAM programs. The entered codes ensure that the material is produced with zero error. Therefore, CNC laser cutting is widely used in the laser cutting sector. Metal, stainless, cardboard, plastic and wooden materials can be easily processed with the CNC laser cutting technique.

2. CO2 Laser Cutting

CO2 laser cutting is a method used to process materials other than metal. In this method, cutting is done by activating CO2 gas with electricity. If we want to process metal with CO2 lasers, the metal must be processed beforehand. Raw metals are not suitable for CO2 laser cutting. With this technique, which has a very high cutting power, you can cut acrylic, paper, cardboard, wood and textile materials.

3. Fiber Laser Cutting

Fiber laser cutting is one of the most commonly used laser cutting methods. It is possible to process all metal and non-metal materials with the fiber optic cutting method. Fiber laser cutting is suitable for cutting, engraving and marking processes. It is possible to process gold, brass, aluminum and copper materials. In addition, sensitive fiber lasers can be used to mark rubber and leather surfaces, which are textile materials.

4. Crystal Laser Cutting

Crystal laser cutting is another version of the fiber laser cutting technique. It is suitable for processing both metal and non-metal materials. Although it is a high-cost cutting technique, it is a very successful method. Two techniques called YAG and YVO are used when performing crystal laser cutting.

Is Sheet Metal Laser Cutting Advantageous?

Sheet metal laser cutting is a useful and advantageous method in industrial production. Thanks to its high precision, it has the ability to cut detailed and complex designs perfectly. It offers the flexibility to process various metals such as steel, stainless steel, aluminum.

It reduces the need for additional operations by providing clean and smooth cuts. It also has the advantages of fast production and high repeatability. It allows for various applications in industry and metalworking by providing design freedom. However, the cost of the machines and their maintenance requirements must be taken into account.

In Which Industries Is Laser Cutting Used?

Laser cutting usage areas are quite common. Because it can provide part manufacturing for any desired sector with its superior cutting techniques. In this context, laser cutting technique is widely used in the following areas;

• Automotive,
• Industry,
• advertising,
• Architectural and Steel Construction Sectors,
• Hobby Craftsmanship

Laser Cutting Minute Price

The 2023 laser cutting minute fee starts from approximately 10-11 TL. The thickness and type of the cut material and the small or large number of products affect the prices.

Things to Consider in Laser Cutting

1. Material Selection: Choosing the right material for laser cutting is critical. Different materials, such as metals, wood or plastic, may require different laser cutting systems and powers. Choosing the right material is important for successful cutting results.
2. Cutting Parameters Setting: The parameters to be used in laser cutting should be set correctly depending on the type of material, its thickness and the details to be cut. Determining the parameters such as correct power, speed and focal length affects the cutting quality.
3. Design Considerations: The design to be cut must be in vector format and the details must be suitable for the material thickness. Details must be designed considering the thermal effects that may occur during laser cutting.
4. Safety Precautions: Laser beams emitted from devices used during laser cutting can be potentially harmful. Appropriate eyewear and other safety precautions should be taken during and after the procedure.
5. Material Fixation and Ground Preparation: Proper fixation of the material to be cut is important for precise cuts. In addition, positioning of the laser cutting machine and a clean and smooth ground are also necessary for a successful cut.

What can be done with laser cutting?

• Branding on metal
• Color laser cutting application, color laser marking
• Contract branding process
• Cleaning of burrs and chips
• Mechanical and non-contact cutting capability
• Cutting on sheet metal, making metal labels
• Smooth and high quality surface cutting opportunity
• Unlimited design possibilities

How to Do CNC Laser Cutting?

How does a CNC laser work? 

The material used for laser cutting is placed in a layer on the CNC cutting machine. At this point, wood, iron metal or different materials can be used.  With the command given to the CNC cutting machine,  the mold is cut perfectly and the desired product is obtained.

The result of the laser cutting process is a project with high-quality edge coating, and these powerful  optical cutting devices  create perfect products that human power cannot make.

Although laser cutting machines, known as industrial laser cutters,  are frequently used for cutting sheet metal, they can also be safely used to cut structural and pipe materials.
