Other options for engraving include 6.9"x6.9", 6.9�x5.9", 5.9�x5.9�, and 4.3�x4.33�, as well as 2.6�x2.6�. They are available in a variety of sizes depending on what you need.
Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. can engrave acrylics and hard-plastics brick, granite marble, tile.
Fiber lasers use high-power laser diodes to stimulate active medium and pump optical fiber with laser light.
You can also check out their support page hosted using Zendesk. It has categorized sections that help you quickly find what you are looking for.
Just know that the running cost of plasma is lower than laser. In general, it cost about 15/hr to run plasma cutting machines. It takes about 20/hr to run a laser machine.
Plasma can cut any metal that has conductive properties. Laser machines have difficulty with reflective metals like copper, aluminum, and brass.
Looking for the best Fiber Laser cutting machine? Our team can help you create any item that you may have in mind.
Laser machines can cut all kinds of materials. The material you can cut though will depend on what kind of laser machine you have. CO2 laser machine can�t cut through reflective metals like aluminum, copper, and brass. But they can cut through nonmetallic materials like wood and plastic.
The auto-focus feature automatically adjusts the laser head position along the Z-axis as per the data received using the 3D camera.
With the CNC control system, the fiber laser cutter is equipped with a laser generator to dope the pump material into the optical fiber, and the laser of a specific wavelength emitted by the semiconductor laser is coupled to make the optical fiber generate laser light. Then, the machine converges the laser beam into a small diameter spot to form a beam of high energy density and extremely bright light, which acts on the metal to be cut, which causes the temperature of the metal at the laser irradiation point to be sharp it rises and reaches the vaporization temperature instantaneously, causing evaporation and forming holes. And the machine uses this as the starting point, according to the shape requirements of the part to be cut, the laser beam and the part are moved relative to each other according to a certain trajectory to form a slit. At the same time, the auxiliary gas blowing device is used to remove the slag.
With a fully integrated system for cutting, sorting, and storing of sheet metal, the ASTES4 is your all-in-one solution for laser automation.
Fiber lasers are much more efficient than CO2 lasers and use less energy. They also operate at a shorter wavelength, between 780 and 2200nm, which gives them a higher absorption rate.
Auto-focus adjusts the position of the laser head along the Z-axis according to the 3D camera data.
The enclosure comes with a motorized door. It works with FSL Muse Pandora installed on a desktop.
Laser cutters cost between $13 and $20 per hour to operate. Water jet cutters cost between $15 and $30 per hour. Overall, the operating costs are comparable, and the total cost will be determined by your project.
Compressed air, nitrogen, oxygen, and argon are the four primary types of assist gas for fiber laser machines.
To guide light, fiber lasers use an optical fiber cable made of silica glass. Because the resulting laser beam is straighter and smaller than with other types of lasers, it is more precise. They also have a small footprint, are energy efficient, require little maintenance, and have low operating costs.
