Which process is capable of cutting thick carbon steel?

Carbon steel is a common metal material, with high strength, good corrosion resistance, easy to process and other characteristics, widely used in construction, machinery, automotive and other fields. Due to its excellent performance, thick carbon steel is important in many industrial applications.

Compare different metal cutting process:

Among the many metal cutting processes, plasma and waterjet cutting are commonly used. However, these processes have some drawbacks when cutting thick carbon steel plates, such as low cutting efficiency, poor accuracy, and generating a lot of smoke and noise. In contrast, fiber laser cutting machines with their high efficiency, precision, and environmental protection characteristics have become the preferred choice for cutting thick carbon steel.

Advantages and principle of fiber laser cutting machine cutting thick carbon steel:

Fiber laser cutting machine adopt high-energy laser beam irradiation on the surface of carbon steel, so that it quickly melts, vaporizes, or chemical reaction, to achieve high efficiency and high quality cutting. This process has the following advantages:

• Fast cutting speed and high precision;
• No need to add any chemical substance, green and environmental protection;
• Suitable for carbon steel plates, carbon steel pipes, carbon steel profiles of various thicknesses;
• Reduced processing costs and improved productivity

Fiber laser cutting machine can cut carbon steel plates of various shapes and sizes, such as round, square, oval, triangle and so on. The cut carbon steel plate can be used to make automobile parts, mechanical equipment, building structures and so on. In addition, it can also cut carbon steel pipes with different diameters and wall thicknesses, such as 6mm-300mm diameter and 1mm-25mm wall thickness, which can be used to make pipelines, bridges, ships, wind power generation and so on. In the construction industry, fiber laser cutting machine can cut various specifications and models of carbon steel profiles, such as angle steel, channel steel, I-beam, H-beam, and so on. The cut carbon steel profiles can be used to make steel structures, towers, frames, etc.
