What is laser cutting?
L-A-S-E-R stands for: Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Laser cutting is a revolutionary technology that has been used in the manufacturing industry for decades. It is a precise and efficient way of cutting different types of materials. The laser beam is created by exciting a gas or crystal with an electrical charge, which produces a beam of light that is amplified through a series of mirrors until it reaches the cutting head.
How does laser cutting work?
The laser beam is focused through a lens and directed onto the material to be cut. The heat generated by the laser melts, burns, or vaporises the material, leaving a clean, precise edge. The laser cutting process can be controlled by computer software, which allows for intricate designs to be cut with high accuracy. The process can be used to cut flat or curved shapes, and can even be used to create 3D designs.
Advantages of laser cutting
Laser cutting has several advantages over traditional cutting methods:
- Laser cutting is precise and accurate, producing fine and intricate cuts.
- The laser beam can be focused to a very small point, allowing for high precision.
- Traditional cutting methods may have larger cutting tools than desired cuts, leading to imprecise cuts.
- Laser cutting is a fast process, making it suitable for producing large quantities of parts quickly.
- Laser cutting is a non-contact process, reducing the chance of damage to the material and eliminating the need for additional finishing processes.
Applications of laser cutting
Laser cutting can be used in a variety of applications, including manufacturing, prototyping, and artistic endeavours. In the manufacturing industry, laser cutting is used to cut and shape parts for a wide range of products, from medical devices to automotive parts. Laser cutting is especially useful for creating parts with intricate designs, such as gears or brackets.
In prototyping, laser cutting is used to quickly produce prototypes of new designs. By using laser cutting technology, designers can quickly iterate through different design concepts and produce physical models for testing. Laser cutting is also used in the art world to create intricate designs and sculptures. Artists can use laser cutting to create intricate details in their work that would be difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional cutting methods.
