laser cutting process
The laser cutting process uses the energy released when the laser beam hits the surface of the steel sheet to melt and evaporate the stainless steel.
The laser source is generally a carbon dioxide laser beam and the operating power is 500-2500 watts. This level of power is lower than that required by many domestic electric heaters, but the laser beam is concentrated in a very small area through the lens and the mirror. The high concentration of energy enables rapid local heating to evaporate the stainless steel.
In addition, because the energy is very concentrated, only a small amount of heat is transferred to other parts of the steel, resulting in little or no distortion. The laser can very accurately cut the complex shape of the blank, and the cut blank does not have to go any further processing.
