Do you need to know more about the simple basics of laser cutting?
Here is your ultimate guide to the basics of laser cutting and how it works on machines.
Laser cutting is a fabrication process that utilizes a high-powered laser beam on a laser cutting machine to cut the material into various shapes and designs. The laser cutting process is suitable for cutting a wide range of materials. A key benefit of laser cutting is that this process can generate precise and complex parts without any need for custom-designed tooling.
Several types of laser cutting machines are available, with each specific process producing parts with a high degree of precision, accuracy, and high-quality edge finishes. The laser cutting process generally results in less material contamination, physical damage, and waste compared with many other common cutting processes.
Messer Cutting Systems offers fiber laser (straight cutting) machines, fiber laser beveling machines including Co2, and fiber laser/plasma combination machines.
