We know that achieving perfect cuts depends not just on your machine, but on correct parameter settings. Whether you are cutting stainless steel, aluminum, or mild steel, adjusting your laser power, cutting speed and gas pressure makes all the difference.
Key Parameters to Optimize Your Fiber Laser Cutting Machine
1) Laser Power
- Determines the cutting depth and speed.
- Higher power for thicker materials, lower power for thin sheets.
2) Cutting Speed (mm/min)
- Controls the balance between cut quality and productivity.
- Slower speeds improve edge finish, faster speeds improve throughput.
3) Assist Gas Type & Pressure
- Oxygen for mild steel (faster cutting, oxidation), nitrogen for stainless and aluminum (clean cuts, no oxidation).
- Correct pressure ensures smooth cutting and protects optics.
4) Focus Position & Nozzle Height
- Perfect focus gives sharper cuts and reduces edge burr.
- Adjust based on material thickness and type.
