What are the advantages of laser cutting machines compared to traditional cutting machines?

Although the laser cutting machine has been on the market for many years and has been very mature, many users still do not fully understand the advantages of the laser cutting machine. As an efficient processing equipment, the laser cutting machine can completely replace the traditional cutting equipment. Many users said that this machine is more suitable for modern product processing. So what are the outstanding advantages of this fiber laser cutting machine compared with traditional tools?
First, cutting speed
According to the actual test results of the laser field, the cutting speed of the laser cutting machine is more than 10 times that of the traditional cutting equipment. For example, for cutting 1mm stainless steel plates, the maximum speed of the laser cutting machine can reach more than 30 meters per minute, which is impossible for traditional cutting machines.
Second, cutting quality and precision
Traditional flame cutting and CNC punching machines are both contact processing methods, which cause great damage to the material, and the cutting quality is very low. The surface must be flattened by secondary processing, and the cutting accuracy deviation is large. The laser cutting machine is a non-contact mechanic method, and the damage to the material is almost zero. Because the laser cutting machine uses advanced accessories to make the equipment more stable during operation, the cutting accuracy is more accurate, and the error even reaches 0.01mm accuracy. The cut surface is flat and smooth. For some demanding industries, it not only saves costs but also saves processing time.
Third, the operation is easier and more convenient
Both flame cutting and CNC punching machines require manual intervention in the operation of the machine, especially CNC punching machines, which require a good mold design before cutting. The laser cutting machine only needs to design the cutting pattern in the computer, and any complicated pattern can be imported into the worktable of the laser cutting machine, and the equipment will automatically process it without manual intervention.
Fourth, fast cutting speed, high degree of automation, easy operation, low labor intensity, and no pollution.
