Metal laser cutting machine setup

To run a successful business in machineries for hospitality and hospitals, their is a requirement of higher precision cutting and finishing . Setting up a laser cutting business catering specifically to the hospital and hospitality industries involves understanding the unique needs and requirements of these sectors. Here’s a tailored approach to making a proper setup of a laser cutting machine. Including with other accessories that we had installed with a 1.5 kW laser cutting machine for A&T enterprises.

Fiber laser cutting machine set up (A&T enterprises)

We have installed 1.5kw laser cutting machine at A&T enterprises. This is business for equipment making used in hospitality, restaurants and similar others. The average everyday metal laser cutting job work of 1 ton and above is cut for the equipment’s making. By using 1.5kw fiber laser cutting machine the laser-precision cutting increases the industrial production and reduces the scraps ratio. Here, we shall be going through the machine set-up requirements with the other accessories in brief to get a fair idea.

Metal laser cutting setup process

Benefits of laser cutting:

  • Production efficiency increases: Due to the symmetrical cutting, the pieces are cut in perfect symmetry. And, the metal cutting products further welding, reshaping, and designing look more appealing after all the work is done. This ultimately reduces the production time and increases the production rate.
  • Minimal Damages: Compared to traditional ways of cutting and welding, a laser cutter does minimal damage to the metal sheets.
  • Reduces scrap ratio: As the final cutting material is more proportionate, this leaves very thin sheet frames as scrap. This ultimately saves money due to minimal material damage due to different nesting designing.

Accessories for fiber laser cutting machine

Although, a CNC laser cutting machine is a perfect machine for the business. However, the other accessories are also taking a crucial role to enroll into the successful laser cutting business. Here, are some of the accessories for the fiber laser cutting machine:

  • S&A Chiller: S&A chiller unit cools down the laser tube or laser head in laser machines. As, the laser cutting operations generate heat, that needs to be dissipated by using a water chiller.
  • BM111 laser head: The BM111 laser head controls all kind of cutting activity and contain the laser source and optics necessary to focus and direct the laser beam onto the cutting material. However, we need to adjust its power, wavelength, and other parameters requirements of the laser system.
  • UPS: To run the laser cutting machine very efficiently, we need to add a high-powered(30kva-35units) UPS, in case of any sudden power cut or shortages. It helps in detecting the work in progress fluctuations control due the power cut or any case of voltage fluctuations.
  • Compressor: Stainless steel cutting through nitrogen costs ,much higher. So, we have installed a 16 bar compressor with air dryer and filer(for fresh air passages), this reduces the cost cutting.
  • Oxygen/nitrogen cylinder: This also requires oxygen or nitrogen cylinder for the smooth laser cutting operations.

Major functions of this machine

Here are some of the major functions of taking a laser cutting machine

  • Laser cutting: Here is the business of stainless steel cutting, so we can manage high-precision cutting up to the thickness of 6 mm.
  • Laser bending: We can use a CNC bending machine for precise and damage-free bending work.
  • laser engraving: A laser cutting machine can also engrave the design patterns up to an acceptable thickness level.
  • laser complex design; an inbuilt Cypcut 2000 software creates the complex design that is readable for laser cutting operations.

What are the subsidiaries machines to maximize the profit?

We should also install, a CNC bending machine for smooth laser bending of the final products.

CNC bending machine: A CNC bending machine can be taken as a subsidiary machine to meet the bending requirements of various bending works, product finishing higher-efficiency, accuracy, and safety in production processes.

Conclusion

Hopefully, in this article every doubts has been clarified. And, those working into the field of laser cutting and equipment’s productions in any related industries can easily identify the initial machinery set up requirements with other accessories and machineries.
