XT Laser-laser cutting machine
In the traditional processing mode, the processing and forming of a finished product often requires many processing steps. Fiber laser cutting machine is different. It is precisely because of the efficient and fast cutting method of laser cutting machine and the uniqueness of laser cutting technology that metal laser cutting machine shows unparalleled advantages in metal processing. How to calculate the processing cost of laser cutting machine.

Laser cutting machine has been widely used in sheet metal processing industry due to its advantages of stability, high efficiency and high processing technology. However, due to the high price of laser cutting machines, many customers will hesitate to buy them. We once met a customer who was mainly engaged in steel processing. Traditional equipment has been used before, but with the improvement of market requirements for technology, traditional equipment is difficult to meet the demand. He also collected a lot of information about the fiber laser cutting machine on the Internet. The price is generally more than 200000 yuan. Considering the operation cost of the equipment in the future, the customer is very hesitant.
How to calculate the processing cost of laser cutting machine? At present, there is no uniform standard for the processing cost of laser cutting machine. For friends who first contact with laser cutting products, calculating the processing cost is a headache, and most of them still have regional differences, and the quality of cutting is also an important standard to measure the price. Most people think that if the manufacturer directly quotes, it will feel high, I feel that I have suffered a loss, but there is no way to do it, so I have to consider the laser cutting and processing manufacturer as a butcher. Next, I will take the hourly operating cost of the laser cutting machine of Xintian Laser as an example to analyze the benefits that the laser cutting machine will bring to the enterprise in the future.
The fiber laser cutting machine has the advantages of high processing speed, high precision, smooth and flat cutting surface, and high cost performance. It is applicable to the cutting and processing of various precision metal parts. Its efficiency is more than 100 times that of wire cutting. However, the price is 1/3 of that of CO2 laser cutting machine. In the later use costs, the cost of the fiber laser cutting machine is only 1/5 of that of the CO2 laser cutting machine and the CNC punch. At such low operating costs, the fiber laser cutting machine can indeed complete the processing of various complex structures. As long as the patterns can be designed in the computer, the fiber laser cutting machine can cut.
Taking 500W, 1000W and 2000W fiber laser cutting machines as examples, we use oxygen gas, and the operating cost per hour is:
The processing cost varies with the auxiliary gas used in cutting. Let’s take 500W fiber laser cutting machine as an example:
① Cutting 1mm stainless steel/carbon steel plate, the cutting speed is 18 meters/minute, the consumption of electricity is 5 yuan/hour, and the cost of liquid oxygen gas is 10 yuan/hour. Add in the market price of 100 yuan for each piece of protective lens and 60 yuan for each cutting nozzle, and the cost of consumables (protective lens and copper nozzle are replaced every two months) is 1 yuan/hour, and the total cost is 16 yuan.
② Cutting 1mm stainless steel/carbon steel plate, the cutting speed is 18 meters/minute, the electricity consumption is 5 yuan/hour, and the nitrogen gas cost is 34 yuan/hour. Add in the market price of 100 yuan for each piece of protective lens and 60 yuan for each cutting nozzle, and the cost of consumables (protective lens and copper nozzle are replaced once every two months) is 1 yuan/hour. The total cost is 40 yuan.
③ Cutting 1mm stainless steel/carbon steel plate, the cutting speed is 18 meters/minute, the electricity consumption is 5 yuan/hour, and the liquid nitrogen gas cost is 20 yuan/hour. Add in the market price of 100 yuan for each piece of protective lens and 60 yuan for each cutting nozzle, and the cost of consumables (protective lens and copper nozzle are replaced once every two months) is 1 yuan/hour. The total cost is 26 yuan.

The thickness of the metal plate is slightly different from the auxiliary gas consumed. Xintian Laser recommends that the requirements for cutting stainless steel and aluminum alloy sections are not high. It is recommended to use high-pressure air cutting to reduce costs.
In fact, the operating cost of the laser cutting machine is not high. The main reason is that the costs involved include electricity and gas costs, and the equipment maintenance costs are very low. Don’t hesitate that the optical fiber laser cutting machine is absolutely your choice to reduce production costs. It is specialized in cutting a variety of thin metal plates, high-quality cutting of 0.5~6mm carbon steel plate, 0.5~5mm stainless steel plate (nitrogen is the thickest 3mm, oxygen is the thickest 5mm), and can also cut galvanized sheet, electrolytic plate, silicon steel and other metal materials.
