Laser Cutting
Laser Cutting
Laser cutting has obvious advantage such as high precision, high speed and low cost compared with other traditional cutting method. Shanghai Yixing Technology provides professional laser cutting service for all industries. Thickest material can be 20mm for carbon steel and 14mm for stainless steel.
What is Laser Cutting?
Laser cutting is an efficient and economical cutting process. It is the use of a high density laser beam to irradiate a workpiece, causing the irradiated material to vaporize and melt, while using high-speed airflow to blow away the material, in order to cut the workpiece out. It leaves edges with high-quality surface finish. Industrial laser cutting machines are generally used to cut flat materials as well as structural and pipeline materials. Laser cutting is a mainstream technology known for its accuracy, efficiency, and versatility.

FAQ of Laser Cutting
What is the thickest flat sheet you can laser cut?
We offer different thickness specifications for different laser cutting materials. The laser cutting equipment parameters will decide what thickness we can cut.
For aluminum, the thickest flat sheet we can laser cut is around 10mm.
For stainless steel, the thickest flat sheet we can laser cut is around 14mm.
For carbon steel, the thickest flat sheet we can laser cut is around 20mm.
How long does it take to laser cut materials?
Laser cutting is one of the most efficient cutting method that can cut steel materials very fast. This ensures that various cutting projects will be completed very quickly while at the same time save material costs. With precise laser cutting machines in Shanghai Yixing Technology, we can provide faster lead times and reasonable pricing for customers.
For aluminum, our cutting speed is around 0.3~0.45m/min.
For stainless steel, our cutting speed is around 0.4~0.5m/min.
For carbon steel, our cutting speed is around 0.3~0.5m/min.
How accurate is your laser cutting service?
Our laser cutting service can cut material with a precision of +/- 0.002 inches and a positional accuracy of +/- 0.004 inches. This high precision makes laser cutting an ideal choice for industries that require complex and detailed cutting. For example, precision parts of serrated teeth used in the manufacturing and even production of medical devices.
The accuracy of laser cutting machines is mainly affected by the following factors:
1. Laser beam quality
The better the quality of the laser beam, the smaller the focused spot, and the higher the cutting quality and accuracy.
2. Optical system
High precision and high-quality optical systems can significantly improve the accuracy of laser cutting machines. During the operation of the laser cutting machine, the optical system guides the laser beam very close to the workpiece, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the laser beam, thereby achieving high-precision processing.
3. Machine accuracy
Machine accuracy is also one of the key factors affecting the accuracy of laser cutting machines. The laser cutting machine needs to have a high-precision positioning system, including the workbench, guide rail, servo motor, sensor, and other parts that must ensure accuracy in order to ensure the processing accuracy of the laser cutting machine.
4. Cutting parameters
Different materials and thicknesses require different cutting parameters, such as laser power, spot diameter, gas flow rate, cutting speed, etc. Adjusting these parameters can effectively affect the accuracy of cutting.
