Mastering Metal Cutting: Fiber Lasers Conquer Diverse Materials and Thicknesses


As a senior engineer at Tianchen Laser, a leading manufacturer of fiber laser cutting machines in China, I, Chole, have had the privilege of working with some of the most advanced laser cutting technologies available. With years of experience in global sales and service, I have seen firsthand how our fiber laser machines have revolutionized metal fabrication by efficiently processing a wide range of metallic materials and thicknesses.


What Materials and Thicknesses Fiber Lasers Can Cut?


Cutting a Comprehensive Range of Metals


Fiber laser cutting machines are renowned for their versatility in cutting a comprehensive range of metals. From common materials like mild steel and stainless steel to more challenging alloys like aluminum and copper, fiber lasers have proven their ability to deliver exceptional results.


Mild steel, a staple in many fabrication applications, can be cut with ease using fiber lasers. Our machines can process mild steel thicknesses ranging from thin sheets of 0.5 mm to thick plates of 20 mm or more, depending on the laser power and cutting head configuration. The high beam quality and fast cutting speeds of fiber lasers ensure clean, precise cuts with minimal heat-affected zones (HAZ).


Stainless steel, known for its corrosion resistance and durability, is another metal that fiber lasers excel at cutting. Whether it's austenitic, ferritic, or martensitic stainless steel, our fiber laser machines can produce high-quality cuts with excellent edge quality. Thicknesses up to 12 mm can be efficiently processed, making fiber lasers ideal for a wide range of stainless steel applications.


Aluminum, a lightweight and versatile metal, can be challenging to cut with traditional laser technologies due to its high reflectivity and thermal conductivity. However, fiber lasers have proven to be highly effective in cutting aluminum thanks to their shorter wavelength and high beam quality. Our machines can cut aluminum sheets and plates up to 8 mm thick with impressive precision and speed.


Copper, another highly reflective metal, can also be successfully cut with fiber lasers. The fast cutting speeds and high beam quality of our fiber laser machines minimize the risk of back reflections, ensuring stable and efficient processing of copper up to 3 mm thick.


What Materials and Thicknesses Fiber Lasers Can Cut?


Pushing the Boundaries of Thickness Capabilities


At Tianchen Laser, we understand that metal fabrication often requires cutting materials of various thicknesses. That's why we offer a range of high-power fiber laser cutting machines designed to tackle even the most demanding thickness requirements.


Our state-of-the-art machines, equipped with powerful fiber laser sources ranging from 1 kW to 20 kW, can cut through thick plates of mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum with remarkable speed and precision. For instance, our 20 kW fiber laser cutting machine can efficiently process mild steel plates up to 50 mm thick, stainless steel up to 40 mm, and aluminum up to 30 mm.


To ensure optimal cutting performance on thicker materials, our machines feature advanced cutting head technologies, such as motorized focus position adjustment and automatic nozzle changing. These features maintain consistent focus position and proper nozzle standoff distance, resulting in superior cut quality and reduced cutting time.


Customized Solutions for Diverse Metal Cutting Needs


At Tianchen Laser, we recognize that every metal fabrication business has unique requirements when it comes to material types and thicknesses. That's why we offer customized fiber laser cutting solutions tailored to meet your specific needs.


Our expert team works closely with clients to understand their manufacturing challenges and goals. We then recommend the most suitable fiber laser cutting machine configuration, taking into account factors such as laser power, cutting head design, and material handling systems. This collaborative approach ensures that our customers receive a solution that maximizes efficiency, productivity, and return on investment.
