How the 150KW Fiber Laser Cutting is Transforming Manufacturing

The Rise of High-Power Laser Cutting

*10kW Laser Cutting Technology: Over the past few years, the laser cutting industry has seen a surge in demand for ultra-high power systems. Among these, the 10kW laser cutting machines have gained significant traction due to their ability to cut thicker materials with higher efficiency, precision, and quality.

*The Future of Laser Cutting: The demand for high-power, high-efficiency, and high-quality laser cutting systems is reshaping the future of manufacturing. Han's Laser, a global leader in intelligent laser equipment and automation, is at the forefront of this transformation, integrating cutting-edge laser technology into industries worldwide.

*Han's Laser's Role: As part of its commitment to advancing laser technology, Han's Laser has introduced a new game-changer: the 150kW ultra-high power laser cutting machine. This machine, unveiled on June 19, 2024, ushers in a new era for cutting applications in the manufacturing sector.

Key Features of the 150kW Laser Cutter

1. High Power for Heavy-Duty Cutting

· Target Materials and Thickness: The 150kW laser cutter is designed to handle a wide range of materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and other metals up to 400mm thick. This allows manufacturers to tackle previously difficult cutting applications for industries such as shipbuilding, energy power, and heavy machinery.

· Performance Advantages: With the ability to cut ultra-thick materials at unprecedented speeds, the 150kW laser cutter offers a competitive edge in terms of both efficiency and quality.

· Cutting Speeds: Compared to traditional methods such as plasma or flame cutting, the 150kW laser cutter drastically improves cutting speeds, handling thick materials with ease. For instance, the cutting speed for 25mm carbon steel is 3 to 4 times faster than plasma cutting machines. This improvement translates to significant time and cost savings in large-scale production.

2. Unmatched Precision and Quality

· Precision Cutting: The 150kW laser cutter provides precision cutting with an accuracy of 0.5mm, and taper angles below 1°. This precision ensures that parts are cut to the highest standards with minimal post-processing needed.

· Minimal Heat-Affected Zone (HAZ): The machine significantly reduces the heat-affected zone, which is a common issue with traditional cutting methods. This results in less material distortion, reduced warping, and fewer defects in the final product.

· High-Quality Cut Faces: With cut face verticality accuracy ranging from 0.3 to 1.0mm, the laser cutter delivers high-quality cuts with clean, smooth surfaces, requiring less finishing work after cutting.

Comparing Performance: Han's Laser vs. Traditional Cutting Methods

Cutting Efficiency Comparision

Han's Laser’s ultra-high power machines provide up to 5 times faster cutting speeds compared to traditional plasma or flame cutting, significantly improving throughput and reducing production time. This level of efficiency is unmatched by traditional cutting methods, especially when dealing with thick plates and large production volumes.

Cost-Effective and Eco-Friendly

*Operational Costs: The high cutting speed and precision of the 150kW laser cutter result in reduced material waste and less energy consumption compared to traditional methods, offering lower operational costs in the long run.

*Environmental Impact: The 150kW laser cutter produces less material waste and significantly reduces air pollution, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to high-energy consumption methods like plasma, flame, and water jet cutting.
