Frequently Asked Questions
What is the machining accuracy of this laser cutting machine?
The machine is equipped with precision servo motor modules on the X, Y, and Z axes, ensuring excellent stability and flexibility during operation. The minimum cutting tolerance can reach up to 0.03mm.
What types of materials and thicknesses can this system cut?
It specializes in thin metal plates and pipes, including carbon steel plates/tubes (0.5 to 12mm), stainless steel plates/tubes (0.5 to 5mm), aluminum-plated iron pipes, and galvanized iron pipes, as well as hard, brittle materials like ceramics.
How does laser cutting compare to traditional drilling and cutting methods?
Traditional mechanical drilling often leaves rough surfaces that require secondary polishing and are prone to rust. Laser cutting delivers burr-free, smooth edges with minimal heat-affected zones, meaning workpieces do not deform and retain their rust resistance.
Can this system handle custom workpieces and irregular shapes?
Yes. In cooperation with custom fixtures, the system can easily locate and accurately process irregular workpieces and secondary processed parts, resolving the positioning issues common with traditional pipe cutters.
What software and control system run the machine?
The machine runs on the specialized CYPCUT numerical control system and utilizes Cypnest expert nesting software. This combination provides a user-friendly, visual workflow while optimizing material layout to minimize waste.
Does this laser cutting machine require expensive molds?
No, this is a completely non-contact, mold-free process. Production requires no mold opening and allows you to program designs directly via computer nesting, reducing production times and tooling costs.
