Laser cutting of metal

Globalprodservice provides custom laser metal cutting service. We use modern equipment and have experienced specialists, which gives us the opportunity to process parts of any complexity and volume.

Laser cutting of metal is a modern processing method that allows achieving high precision and cutting quality, a process in which a laser beam acts on the metal surface, melting it. The working head, moving along the guides, performs cutting of a given shape and size.

Important! The cost of the laser metal cutting service is calculated individually on the day of application from 1 hour by calling the sales manager or by request on the company's website. The production time is 3-5 working days.

What affects the cost of laser metal cutting services:

• Metal type and thickness
• The complexity of geometry
• Number of penetrations, linear meter
• Order volume
• Urgency
• Calculation of the cost per 1 piece (1 piece= 1 finished part)

Thanks to modern equipment, experienced craftsmen and optimized production, we can offer the laser metal cutting service inexpensively and with high quality indicators.

Using a sheet metal laser cutting machine, we produce:

• Metal structures of large and small dimensions
• Housings and blanks of parts
• Parts for industrial machines
• Blanks for machine parts
• Decorative elements, gates and fences
• Promotional products
• Letters and stencils
• Figurative and decorative elements
• Furniture Parts

It is possible to perform large amounts of work on the equipment, work with various types of metal. After processing on the machine, the finished products have perfectly smooth edges and edges.

Technical parameters of A SOFTWARE-CONTROLLED LASER CUTTING MACHINE (CNC):

Requirements for the customer's materials

Material:

• Ordinary steel
• Stainless steel
• Other metal is possible (by agreement and with a large volume)
• If you order a large batch, we can make products from our own material

Technical parameters:

• The size of metal sheets is not more than 1500 x 6000
• Standard sheet size: 1250x2500 mm, 1500x3000 mm, 1500x6000 mm
• The blank must have a rectangular shape
• The metal sheet is smooth, clean, not rusty, without creases 

Documentation:

• To calculate the cost of manufacturing products, you need to provide drawings in the DXF format or in the AutoCAD (DWG) format
• The technical specification should contain information about the number of parts, the material of manufacture, and the presence of special requirement
• The scale of the parts in the drawings is 1:1.

What determines the quality of laser cutting of sheet metal? The quality of sheet metal laser cutting depends on:

• Performance indicators and functionality of the machines used. Our machine has sufficient power and cutting speed to process workpieces of the required size and thickness.
• The dimensions of the workpiece and the finished part. We calculate the size of the working field of the machine correctly to avoid cutting errors.
• Requirements for the correctness of the geometry. Depending on the purpose of the products, we impose strict requirements on its geometry.
• An alloy type. We use optimal laser cutting parameters for each type of alloy.
• Process gas selection. Compressed air or nitrogen is usually used to remove molten metal from the cutting area.

The main stages of laser cutting of sheet metal:

Preparation. Proper installation and fixing of the metal sheet on the desktop of the laser cutting machine. Adjust the cutting parameters depending on the type and thickness of the metal.

Focusing the laser beam. The laser beam is focused on the metal surface using a lens or a mirror system. Focusing provides high energy density in the cutting area.

Performing cutting. The laser beam melts and vaporizes metal along a given contour. A jet of compressed gas (oxygen, nitrogen, argon) is used to quickly remove molten metal and protect the cutting area.

Post-treatment. Cleaning of gas residues and molten material or other surface treatments (depending on the requirements for the final product).

Numerical control system. The movement of the laser head and the table with the workpiece is controlled by the CNC. The software allows you to process complex geometric shapes.

Quality control. Checking each part for compliance with the specified parameters and absence of defects.

Packaging and shipping. Packaging of products and preparation for shipment to the customer, ensuring the safety of products during transportation.

Advantages of laser cutting:

• High precision due to automation of the CNC metal cutting process 
• It has no mechanical effect on the product (material deformation is excluded, since the laser beam has minimal effect on the sheet)
• Clean edges, smooth edges that do not need to be sanded
• High performance
• The cut is carried out precisely along a given trajectory, without deviations, with proper processing of corners, without scale and roughness
• The ability to set a complex configuration of cuts with minimal tolerances and width changes (cutting of any complexity)
• Creating holes with a minimum diameter
• Economical material consumption (minimal waste) due to the dense arrangement of the blanks on the sheet
• Economic advantage in the production of small series of complex shaped products
• Any metals can be processed, both brittle and sufficiently durable.

The scope of laser cutting (the service is relevant in the following areas):

• Industry
