Laser Cutting Industry
Laser cutting is a widely used technique in the field of laser processing. A laser cutting machine commonly utilizes compressed air as an auxiliary gas to perform metal cutting. To achieve good cutting results, it is important to choose and use the compressed air appropriately.
Application of Air Compressor in laser cutting Industry
How to Choose Air Compressor for Laser Cutting
The quality of compressed air directly affects laser cutting systems. If water and oil are contained in it, and the filter is not clean, high-pressure injection into the laser head protection glass will seriously affect the transmission of the laser beam and cause poor products and materials waste. Most laser cutting machines need to work continuously. Therefore, an air compressor must be selected after optimizing drying machine to remove as much moisture as possible from compressed air, especially after it should add an adequate filtering device whose fine filter can remove oil and tiny dust particles.
Laser cutting is a precise and efficient manufacturing process that uses a beam of light to cut through various materials. It is commonly used for industrial applications such as creating signs, prototypes and art pieces. The Nanxiang Laser Cutting dedicated screw compressor helps modularize production lines, improve production system integrity, optimize air quality after integration, save space, and be easy to install and operate. High quality components bring about high efficiency ratings.
EternelComp’s laser cutting specific precision filters have many benefits compared to traditional air filters. Made of metal, they are easier to clean and maintain. The unique aluminum material results in low air resistance and longer life span. Moreover, the filters demonstrate excellent moisture resistance which allows them to operate well in humid conditions without rusting or corroding. Also, they can withstand temperatures up to 350 degrees Celsius, making them applicable for hot environments such as steel plants.
Customer Cases in Laser Cutting Industry
Saudi Laser Technology Co., Ltd. is dedicated to the research and development, production, sales and customization of various kinds of high-end laser equipment and popularizing industrial laser application technologies. The company highly advocates using lasers for problem-solving, process improvement, efficiency enhancement and cost saving. Therefore, it has extremely high requirements for energy-saving degree of air compressors specialized in laser cutting.
In order to comprehensively re-improve the machine equipment, large amount of search was made for air compressors with higher cost performance and efficiency as well as being more energy-saving and environmental friendly. After inspecting many compressor manufacturers, contacting customers introduced by EternelComp, the enterprise exchanged their improvement plan with EternelComp afterwards.
Prior to the improvement process, ordinary variable frequency screw compressor was used by the firm whose parts like machine head or electric motor adopts outmoded products with low efficiency and unsatisfying energy features. According to the enterprise’s planning book recieved before by EternelComp, systematic study was conducted on factory’s environment regarding operation situation customizedly assembling special laser cutting screw compressors that employs energy-saving, mute permanent magnet efficient IP55 motor、hanzhong machine head、quiet centrifugal fan etc., further customizing a corresponding filter specifically prepared for laser cuttings. After coordinating to each other eventually 5 sets of special air compressors along with requisite postprocessor equipments were successively purchased by the company from EternelComp.
