Fiber lasers are used extensively in engraving applications. Their wavelength ranges from 780nm to 2200nm.
MOPA fiber-laser, a special type that uses fiber lasers for color laser engravings of metals, has a greater pulse width and frequency control.
Plasma working can be complicated. I'll explain the basics as quickly as possible. Plasma cutters heat up gases so that they can melt metal. After the metal melts, it's blown out with gas. The science behind this is complex, but I'll spare you the details. You can either do some research yourself or ask me.
Laser machines with a fiber laser source use high precision field lenses to increase the energy density and collimate the laser beam at one point.
EZCAD 2.0, a free program that is compatible with Microsoft Windows XP/Windows 2000 and Windows 7, WIN8, WIN 10, OS.
When you need to reproduce or alter the dimensions of a piece that’s already been made, the best place to start is with the piece itself. That, and a high-accuracy 2D or 3D inspection machine.
You can mount Muse Pandora under an adjustable work desk, as shown below, for effective engraving when using such lenses.
MCWlaserPRO laser engraver offers three different versions. There are 20W (30W), and 50W options. These lasers operate at 1064nm wavelength.
In an optical fiber laser, the light is bent by refraction. An optical fiber cable passes the light through an impurity-free transparent silica glass core. The core is covered with cladding, another layer of silica doped with added materials for lowering its refractive index. Because of their refractive index difference, the light will get refracted at the core-clad interface.
Fiber lasers can also cut through reflective materials, provided they have enough power. With enough power, they can cut through almost any metal. Their cutting power will limit their ability to cut through thicker metals.
The beam quality is lower than 1.5 M2 for the 20W or 30W lasers, while it's less than 1.8 Mi2 for the 50W laser.
When using fiber laser machines to cut projects, it is necessary to learn the use and maintenance skills, in order to better exert the effectiveness of the equipment and maximize the efficiency of the equipment. 1. Check the steel belt frequently to ensure the tension. Otherwise, if something goes wrong during operation, people may be injured and serious death may result. The steel belt looks like a small thing, but the problem is still a bit serious. 2. Check the straightness of the track and the verticality of the machine every six months, and find that it is abnormal and timely maintenance and debugging. Without this, the effect of cutting may not be very good, the error will increase, affecting the cutting quality. This is the top priority and must be done. 3. Use a vacuum cleaner to suck off the dust and dirt in the machine once a week. All electrical cabinets should be closed and dustproof. 4. The guide rails should be cleaned frequently to remove dust and other debris, to ensure that the equipment racks are cleaned frequently, and lubricating oil is added to ensure lubrication without debris. The guide rail should be cleaned and lubricated frequently, and the motor should also be cleaned and lubricated frequently, the machine can move better during cutting, cut more accurately, and the quality of the cut product will improve. 5. If any damage is found in the process of using the machine, it must be replaced in time, which is not only a type of protection for the machine itself, but also ensures that the machine always maintains an ideal cutting effect.
To upgrade your machine, you can also get accessories like lenses and a fume extractionor.
Boss Laser offers CorelDRAW 2020 at a discount rate when you purchase the FM-Desktop engraving machine.
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.
