Aluminum alloy laser cutting, super large format high speed cutting

Aluminum is a metal with low strength and good plasticity. Aluminum alloy is a kind of metal element added to aluminum, which can change the structure and improve the strength and comprehensive performance. It is suitable for various processing materials or casting parts. Commonly added alloying elements are copper, magnesium, zinc, silicon and so on. Today we will introduce laser cutting of aluminum alloy.

Aluminum alloy products are usually processed into castings, forgings, foils, plates, strips, tubes, rods, profiles, etc., and then cold bending, cutting, drilling, assembling, and coloring.

 Aluminum alloy plate is an industrial material. It is used in various industries according to different materials. According to the surface treatment method, it can be divided into two categories: non-painted products and painted products; the industrial products used include aircraft structures, rivets, missile components, Truck wheel hubs, packaging and insulation aluminum foil, heat exchangers, bulkheads, containers, spars, etc.

With the continuous development of modern machinery processing industry, the requirements for cutting quality and precision are constantly increasing, and the requirements for cutting machines that improve production efficiency and reduce production costs are also increasing. Especially in the machining process of aluminum alloy plates, the initial rough machining of large plates is required to form multi-stage processed plates for subsequent fine processing of parts. For closed air-push oil cutting machines, cutting Higher processing heat will be generated in the process, which not only affects the quality of the board, but also has relatively low production efficiency.

The traditional aluminum alloy cutting equipment, in addition to generating a large amount of heat when cutting materials, the cutting speed is slow and the operation time is too long, it is easy to damage the material and produce burrs, and it cannot effectively dispose of the waste generated in the cutting process in time.

For aluminum alloy plates, most of the existing cutting methods are manual manual cutting or automatic cutting by mechanical equipment, but the cutting length is limited by the length of the production line during the cutting process.
