It's as simple 1-2-3. The laser machines can be used in the same way as a standard printer to simplify your workflow.
Select the appropriate gas to meet your cutting needs. Also, make sure that you check the jet's condition.
Laser cutting systems are ideal for use in industrial manufacturing, commercial, education, school, home, hobbyist, and craftsman.
CO2 laser cutting systems are able to cut variety of thin metal and non-metal materials of wood, MDF, plywood, chipboard, acrylic, plastic, PMMA, leather, fabric, cardboard, paper, rubber, depron foam, woodleather, wood paper, EPM, gator foam, polyester (PES), polyethylene (PE), polyurethane (PUR), neoprene, textile, bamboo, ivory, carbon fibers, beryllium oxide, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinyl butyrale (PVB), polytetrafluoroethylenes (PTFE / Teflon), phenolic or epoxy resins, and any materials with halogens (fluorine, astatine, iodine, chlorine, bromine).
GSS Machinery's metal and ceramic laser tubes offer the advantages of longer life, lower recharge costs, and higher quality engraving and cutting.
If you're sure you understand your needs, then you can start to research it. You may be able to learn from other people and gain a basic understanding of machine functions and parameters. Choose a few reliable manufacturers to conduct proofing and preliminary exchanges. In the latter stage, go on-site to investigate and have more detailed discussions about prices, online training and after-sales support.
Laser cutting is achieved by applying high power density energy produced by focused laser beam. With the CNC controller, the laser generator outputs a high-frequency pulsed laser in a pulsed manner to make a beam with a certain frequency and pulse width. The beam is transmitted and reflected through the optical path and focused by the focusing lens group. A tiny, high-energy-density light spot is formed on the surface of the part, the focal point is located near the surface to be cut, and the material melts or vaporizes at an instant high temperature. Each laser pulse shoots a small hole in the substrate. With the computer numerical controller, the laser head and the substrate perform continuous relative movement and dotting according to the designed file, so as to cut the substrate into the desired shape.
Laser cutting complex designs in paper, acrylic and wood is easy with your CO2 laser. Laser cutting layers allows you to create 3D models and invitations in paper, as well as wood inlays. All this can be done with just one laser. You only have your imagination when using a laser machine.
You should debug the equipment several times and set the focus point of your cutting head in a suitable place.
There is one very interesting application of laser technology that is worth mentioning here. It has made its way to surgical wards and is replacing metallic cutting tools like scalpels etc. It is being used nowadays to vaporize human tissues and cells.
It's as simple as 1-2-3. Our laser machines are just like standard printers, so they make your workflow easy.
The laser attaches to your computer just like a printer through USB or Ethernet. Use the design software of your choice to start cutting!
GSS Machinery CO2 laser cutting machines provide a wide range of opportunities and possibilities. The versatility, speed, and precision of GSS Machinery laser cutters enables makers, hobbyists, and entrepreneurs to produce everything from a simple machine concept to packaging to trophies & awards. Laser machines can cut wood, paper, plastic, fabric, foam, and much more with such high precision and speed, giving lasers a clear advantage over other types of cutting technologies.
This laser cutter is compatible with CorelDraw (not included), and there's a handy USB port you can use to get your designs onto the machine. You can see it in action in this video (opens in new tab).
Polycarbonate is an unsuitable material for laser cutting. ABS It emits cyanide gas and melts. ABS is difficult to cut with a laser cutter. It melts rather than vaporizes, and it is more likely to catch fire and leave melted gooey deposits on the vector cutting grid.
Thickness: A 40W to 45W CO2 laser, such as the Muse Core or 3D autofocus, can generally cut up to 14" thick wood, whereas a 90W tube laser, such as the P-Series PS24 or Muse Titan, can cut up to 12" thick wood.
Laser Cutting Process Drawbacks
When compared to other techniques, laser cutting requires a high power consumption.
The laser beam is extremely delicate to handle.
If the laser beam comes into contact with human workers, it is hazardous.
Laser cutting is still unable to cut thick metals.
