First, why laser cutting machine processing aluminum is a problem?
The consumables of the cutting machine are consumed faster when processing aluminum, mainly because aluminum is a highly reflective material. The reflectivity of common metal materials is as follows: aluminum 80%-90%, copper 70%-80%, steel 30%-40%, nickel 30%-40%, titanium 20%-30%, it can be seen that the reflectivity of aluminum is high, and there is a certain loss of laser cutting equipment.
Second, what aspects should be paid attention to when using laser processing aluminum?
1. Check whether there are more oil stains and dust on the surface of the material
If there is oil and dust on the surface of the material will greatly affect the quality of laser processing, when we are cutting, be sure to check whether the surface of the material is clean.
2. The use of appropriate power of laser cutting machine for aluminum cutting
The size of the laser power determines the range of materials that the equipment can process, but the power is not the higher the better, when cutting aluminum, aluminum because of low boiling point, low laser absorption, high thermal conductivity, high expansion coefficient and other characteristics to choose the right power.
3. Set the correct cutting parameters and cutting speed
The main parameters of laser cutting are: feed speed, cutting head height, laser pulse frequency, the correct cutting parameters can make the cutting effect better.
4. The use of suitable auxiliary gas
The role of auxiliary gas mainly has two points: first, to blow away the residual waste to achieve the best cutting effect; The second is the use of gas to chase away the metal slag at the same time, to protect the lens, to avoid the slag attached to the lens, affecting the cutting quality.
Laser cutting high-inverse materials has always been a technical problem in the industry, which requires manufacturers to work hard in each link and choose the right equipment to complete the right work.
