Introduction to Fiber Laser Cutting

Fiber laser cutting is an advanced technology widely used in various industries for its precision and efficiency. It employs a high-power-density beam of light to melt, burn, or vaporize materials with extreme accuracy. This method is particularly valued for its ability to cut a broad spectrum of materials with minimal waste.

Materials Suitable for Fiber Laser Cutting

Fiber laser technology is versatile and capable of cutting numerous materials including metals, plastics, woods, and some ceramics. Below is a detailed exploration of these materials:

• Metals: Stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, brass, and copper are prominently cut using fiber lasers. Metals are known for requiring high-energy absorption, making the concentrated light of fiber lasers ideal.
• Plastics: Fiber lasers can cut through various plastics such as polycarbonate, acrylic, and polyethylene with controlled precision to prevent melting or deformation.
• Woods: Although not as common, certain woods can be cut using fiber lasers, primarily in intricate designs for decorative purposes.
• Ceramics: While challenging, some ceramics can be cut with fiber lasers through multiple passes and specific settings.
