Assist gas of fiber laser cutting machine of XTLASER-Luis

  • When cut different metal materials, laser cutter needs different assist gas. And for different thickness of metals, it needs different air pressure and gas flow. That means to choose right assist gas and gas pressure are directly effect result of laser cutting.

    The assist gas can not only blow away the slag on metal material in time, but also cool the it and clean the lens.

  • 1. compressed air
    Air is suitable for cutting aluminum, non-metallic and galvanized steel plates. To some extent, it can reduce oxide film and save cost. It is generally use when cutting plate is not thick, and the requirement for cutting end face is not too high. It use in some products such as sheet metal case, cabinet, and so on.

  • 3. oxygen
    Oxygen mainly plays a role of combustion support, it can increase the speed of cutting and the thickness of cutting. Oxygen is suitable for thick metal cutting, high speed cutting and extremely thin metal cutting. For example, such as some thicker carbon steel plates, oxygen can use. When cutting metals of different materials and thickness, choosing the suitable gas can help to shorten the cutting time and improve the cutting effect.
