1、Different luminescent media
CO2 laser cutting machine uses gas as a medium for generating laser beams, and the beam is transmitted through the mirror. Fiber laser is delivered through diode and fiber optic cable, and laser beam is generated by multiple diode pumps. Then the beam is transmitted to the laser cutting head via a fiber optic cable, rather than via mirrors.
2、The appearance of fiber laser cutting machine is more compact
Due to the different laser transmission structures, the fiber laser cutting machine with the same power is more compact than the CO2 laser cutting machine. This saves the space of the factory building and is more suitable for the application of old-fashioned warehouses.
3、Fiber laser cutting machine has high electro-optic conversion efficiency
The fiber laser cutting machine adopts a complete solid-state digital module and a single fiber laser design, and the electro-optical conversion efficiency is higher than that of carbon dioxide laser cutting. The actual total utilization rate of each power supply of the CO2 laser cutting machine is about 8%-10%, the total utilization rate of the fiber laser cutting machine is about 25%-30%, and the total energy consumption of the fiber laser cutting system is higher than that of the carbon dioxide cutting system. The consumption is 3-5 times lower, and it has increased by more than 86%.
4、The processing effect of fiber laser cutting machine is better
The fiber laser has a short wavelength characteristic, which improves the absorption of the cutting material to the beam, and makes it possible to cut non-conductive materials such as brass. When the thickness of the cutting material reaches 6 mm, the cutting speed of a 1500-watt fiber laser cutting machine is equivalent to that of a 3000-watt carbon dioxide laser cutting machine.
