If you can accurately set the laser cutting parameters, you won’t have to worry as much about any leftover cutting residue like dross.
The fiber laser has a repeatable precision of +0.0001" and a beam quality less than 1.1M2.
Fiber lasers can be used to engrave metals more efficiently than the generic CO2 lasers.
FSL Muse Pandora (FSL) offers a variety of laser options, including 20W, 30W and 50W.
Plasma can be complicated to understand. Let me explain it as quickly and clearly as I can. Plasma cutters heat gas to the point that it melts metal. Once the metal has melted, the gas is used to blow it away. This is a complex science, but I will save that for another day. You can also research it yourself if you wish.
Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. (FM1212-50S) uses a Raycus 50W, solid-state fiber laser. It has a lifetime of 100,000 hour.
“We went to fewer machines with lower kilowatts, yet we now have higher throughput because the machines operate more intelligently and the automation prevents bottlenecks. The combination has allowed us to get work through faster at a more competitive price and actually gain more work.”
Gulf States Saw & Machine Co., FM1212-50S is able to engrave acrylic.
It will meet the speed and power requirements for aluminum, steel and black acrylic as well leather and granite.
When the water temperature is lower than the ambient temperature and the ambient humidity is high, condensation water will be generated on the surface of the circulating water pipe and the device to be cooled. When the above situation occurs, it is recommended to increase the water temperature or insulate the water pipe and the cooled device.
FSL Mouse Pandora from Full Spectrum Laser has 20W-30W and 50W options.
However, fiber lasers are expensive and if you need a cheap laser engraver you will have to consider going for diode type lasers.
FSL Muse Pandora comes pre-assembled. Only need to connect it with all the required accessories and turn on the power.
FM-Desktop can be used as a mobile engraving machine. It has dimensions of 33.5"x24.5". It has a 4.33" x 4.33", marking area that is perfect for small projects, such as laser engraving knives.
What Materials Can Be Cut With A Fiber Laser? A fiber laser cutting machine can cut sheet metal such as carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, brass, aluminum, and titanium. Fiber lasers outperform CO2 lasers in cutting reflective materials.
Thin carbon fiber mat can be cut with some fraying - but not when coated. The laser can cut or etch. The laser can cut materials such as wood, paper, cork, and some plastics.
Marking and engraving are improved by high peak power and nanosecond pulses. The increased power and improved beam quality result in cleaner cut edges and faster cutting speeds. Fiber lasers are also used in material processing, telecommunications, spectroscopy, medicine, and directed energy weapons.
