Fiber Laser Cutting Machine Less Popular Than CO2 Laser

Laser engraving and cutting machine is widely used in modern production. At present
there are three main types: fiber laser cutting machine, CO2 laser cutting machine, YAG
laser cutting machine.

Fiber laser cutting machine can pass through the optical fiber,
and it with few fault points while quick cutting sheet within 6MM. But it is not good at
cutting more than 12MM thick plate. Because laser wavelength of fiber laser is 1.06UM,
it can not cutting nonmetallic materials. The fiber laser cutting machine photoelectric
conversion rate reaches more than 25%, in electricity consumption, supporting the
cooling system and other aspects of fiber laser cutting machine advantage is quite
obvious. According to international safety norms, laser hazard grade is level 4.

Due to the short wavelength, the fiber laser large cause damage on the human body
especially the eyes. So the fiber laser processing need full blockade of the environment.
As a new laser technology of fiber laser cutting machine, it is less popular than CO2
laser cutting machine.
