How does a CO2 Laser Cutting Machine Work?
Let’s dig into the nitty-gritty. There is a lot of magic (and science!) involved in this tool that will give your business the capability to transform any object into a prized possession.
In a CO2 Laser Cutting Machine, light is produced when electricity runs through a gas-filled tube with mirrors at both ends. One mirror is fully reflective while the other one lets some light come through. These mirrors guide the laser beam into the material that is to be cut. The gas is typically a mixture of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen, and helium.
Any light produced by CO2 laser cutter extremely powerful compared to normal light. This is because of the mirrors that bookend the tube of gases. These mirrors reflect most of the light traveling through the tube and cause the light waves to build in intensity. The light only passes through the partially reflective mirror when it becomes bright enough.
Since the light from a laser is infrared, it is invisible to the human eye. It also has a very long wavelength. It can cut a variety of materials, including cloth, wood, metal, glass, and paper. The intense heat from this light vaporizes the material that is going to be cut, leaving an accurate, smooth finish.
Depending on the look you are going for on your material and what material you are cutting or engraving, the speed and power settings can be decreased and increased. Testing your material beforehand is a good practice and will get you closer to perfect results, every time.
CO2 Laser Cutting Machine details：
Industrial grade laser head
The engraving speed is fast, the service life is long, and the clear effect is better.
Cellular platform
High strength not easy to deform, high structural stability, sound absorption, heat insulation, suitable for processing small crafts.
Optional
1. Wide range. CO2 laser engraver can realize engraving and cutting of almost any non-metallic material. 2. Safe and reliable. It adopts non-contact processing, which will not cause mechanical compression or mechanical stress on the material. There are no "knife marks" and it does not harm the surface of the machined part. 3. Precise and detailed. The processing accuracy of the laser engraving machine can reach 0.02 mm. 4. Environmental protection. The diameter of the beam and spot is small, generally less than 0.5 mm, and the cutting process saves materials, and is safe and hygienic. 5. Consistent results. Ensure that the processing effect of the same batch is completely consistent. 6. High speed and fast. High-speed engraving and cutting can be performed immediately according to the drawings output by the computer. 7. Low cost. Not limited by the number of processing, laser processing is cheaper for small batch processing services.
