When you need metal cut into unique shapes, you can use a few different processes. While plasma cutting can get the job done, laser cutting is one of the most versatile options available! Read on to learn what industrial laser cutting is, as well as the benefits of laser cutting.
Laser Cutting: Defined
As you probably know, a laser is a high-powered beam of light that focuses on a single point. That beam operates at a remarkably high temperature and can cut through a variety of materials, including aluminum and stainless steel.
Accuracy
Many people who need custom shapes cut out of metal want the shapes to be very specific and uniform across several cuts. Laser cutting can provide both these features easily. With incredibly fine movements and the ability to etch and engrave, laser cutting is a versatile cutting option.
Speed
No one wants to wait around forever for their cutting to finish. After you give your order to a cutting company, you want work to begin quickly and end quickly too! In addition to being highly accurate, laser cutting is a very fast process. Whether you use it for acrylic, aluminum, or even steel, laser cutting gets the job done in a matter of hours.
Affordability
One of the many advantages of plasma cutting that people proclaim is its low cost. While it’s true that a lower cost is a difference that plasma cutting has compared to laser cutting, you can’t beat a laser for the value it provides. Plasma cutting is a rougher affair. For the quality you get with laser cutting, the price is fantastic in value.
Now that you know what industrial laser cutting is and what the benefits are, you can remember that laser cutting is best with metal leveling. If you use laser cutting without having the metal leveled first, the laser cutting will cause stresses in the metal and could result in significant deformation.
