On the difference between CO2 laser cutting machine and fiber laser cutting machine

From the perspective of modern current production and processing application fields and current application requirements, laser cutting and laser marking are undoubtedly a high-power, format, high-power, and intelligent laser processing at present. Choice.

Today, the editor will briefly tell you the difference between the processing methods of CO2 laser cutting machine and fiber laser cutting machine.

As the mainstream traditional laser cutting machine and marking machine, the effects that can be done with different lasers are also different. Generally, non-metal laser cutting mainly uses CO2 laser. The main light energy that CO2 laser cutting machine can produce is suitable for non-metal absorption and can meet very high-quality cutting requirements. The CO2 laser cutting machine is mainly used for laser cutting of non-metallic materials such as acrylic sheet, PP and plexiglass. The fiber laser marking machine is mainly used for laser marking and cutting on metal materials. These two types of Jinan Iron and Steel did not perform marking cutting when they encountered copper and silver.

On the difference between CO2 laser cutting machine and fiber laser cutting machine

From a professional point of view, the wavelength difference between CO2 laser cutting machine and fiber laser is not an order of magnitude. Fiber laser cutting machine mainly uses optical fiber transmission. In the process of processing, the degree of processing flexibility can be gradually increased. The photoelectric conversion rate of fiber laser is as high as 25% during use, while the photoelectric conversion rate of CO2 laser is only about 10%. It has obvious advantages in terms of electricity consumption. There are more fiber laser manufacturing plants, the price is more suitable, and the problem of laser processing and the degree of popularity will be higher.

In the international safety standards, CO2 laser is the least harmful. The fiber laser is the most harmful to the human body, especially the eyes due to its short wave length. For safety reasons, fiber laser processing requires a completely enclosed environment.
