The relationship between sheet metal and fiber laser cutting machines

China has gradually become the center of international processing and manufacturing. With the increase in foreign investment, the demand for metal 

processing continues to increase. Electrical control boxes, casings, etc. in the metal processing industry are generally sheet metal parts. The processing 

of high-quality sheet metal parts is complex. It is also very high, and even some parts and processes need to meet dozens of inspection approvals, which 

puts forward higher requirements for accuracy.

Some people say that fiber laser cutting machines are an advancement standing on the shoulders of giants. First of all, the rise of developed countries 

abroad has led to the rapid development of their related manufacturing industries. In recent years, our country has begun to catch up and has achieved good 

results. This achievement has shortened the gap between my country's high-end manufacturing industry and foreign high-end equipment manufacturing 

industry, and will help China's manufacturing industry achieve leapfrog development.

Disadvantages of traditional sheet metal processing

Traditional sheet metal processing technology: shearing-punching-bending-welding process, or flame or plasma cutting-bending-welding process. Faced with

 orders of multiple varieties, small batches, customization, high quality, and short delivery times, traditional sheet metal processing methods have obvious flaws:

1. (CNC) shearing machine, because it is mainly linear cutting, can only be used for materials that only require linear processing.

2. (CNC/brick tower) punch presses have restrictions on cutting steel plates with thickness greater than 1.5mm. The surface quality is poor, the cost is high, the noise is loud, and it is not conducive to environmental protection;

3. Flame cutting, as the original traditional method, has the characteristics of large thermal deformation, wide cutting slit, material waste, slow processing speed, etc., and is only suitable for rough processing.

4. High-pressure water cutting has slow speed, serious pollution and high consumption cost.

Advantages of fiber laser cutting machine

1. Fiber laser cutting machine has the advantages of high flexibility, fast cutting speed, high production efficiency and short production cycle.

2. Narrow slit, good cutting quality, high degree of automation, simple and convenient operation, low labor intensity, safe and environmentally friendly;

3. It can realize automatic discharge and discharge, improve material utilization, no tool wear, and good material adaptability.

4. Low production cost and good economic benefits.
