Fiber laser cutting machine can only cut metal, not cloth, leather, stone and other non-metals. It belongs to the processing category of metal laser cutting machine. The reason is very simple. The wavelength range of fiber laser cutting machine is not within the absorption range of the above materials, or The absorption is not suitable and the ideal cutting effect cannot be achieved. At present, the advantages of non-metal cutting are not obvious. Of course, it is not possible to rule out the possibility of developing this aspect in the future;

Secondly, fiber laser cutting machines are not recommended for long-term cutting of rare metal materials such as aluminum and copper, because these materials are highly reflective materials (note: high reflection has little to do with the smoothness of the cutting surface of the plate, mainly because the wavelength of the laser is not in these Within the ideal absorption range of the material, the absorption effect is not good, most of the energy is reflected back, and it is easy to damage the protective lens in front of the laser head), the long-term use is not good, and the amount of consumables will be increased;

Finally, the fiber laser cutting machine changes the thickness of the cutting base according to its power. The higher the power, the larger the cutting thickness, the thinner the metal material, and the faster the cutting speed. The advantages of the fiber laser cutting machine for thin plate cutting are very obvious.
