How far cutter development prospects
1, after decades of development, CNC laser cutting machine in cutting energy and CNC control system has been a rapid growth of the two aspects, cutting energy has been developed from single flame cutting energy development for the present a variety of energy (flame, plasma, laser, high pressure water jet) cutting way;CNC cutting machine control system has been developed from original simple functions, complex programming and input mode, do not have a high level of automation development to have a fully functional, intelligent, graphical, networked control mode;Drive system is also from the stepper driver, analog servo drive to today's digital servo drive;
CNC cutting machine mainly include the following:
Nc flame cutting machine
CNC plasma cutting machine
CNC laser cutting machine
CNC high pressure water jet cutting machine
Other special special cutting equipment (such as CNC pipe cutting machine, CNC profile cutting machine, and other nonmetal special equipment, such as cutting,)
2, the characteristics of various types of CNC cutting machine and its application situation
Numerical control flame cutting machine, cutting with large thickness carbon steel cutting ability, cut expenses low, but there exists large cutting deformation, cutting accuracy is not high, and low cutting speed, cutting of preheating, perforated time is long, difficult to adapt to the needs of full automatic operation.Its applications mainly limited to carbon steel, the thickness of the plate cutting, in thin steel plate cutting, gradually replaced by plasma cutting.
CNC plasma cutting machine, plasma cutting with a cutting area wide, but all sheet metal cutting, cutting speed, high efficiency, cutting speed can reach more than 10 m/min.Plasma cutting underwater can eliminate the noise emitted by cutting, dust and harmful gas and arc light pollution, effectively improve the workplace environment.Using fine plasma cutting has made close to the level of laser cutting, cutting quality of the current with the mature of high power plasma cutting technology, cutting thickness has more than 100 mm, widen the scope of CNC plasma cutting machine for cutting.
CNC laser cutting machine, cutting speed, high accuracy etc, laser cutting machine is expensive, the high cost of cutting, is only suitable for sheet cutting, requiring high precision,
CNC high pressure water jet cutting machine, suitable for cutting any material (metal, nonmetal and composite materials), high cutting precision, does not produce hot deformation, cutting way of environmental protection.Its drawback is that cutting speed is slow, low efficiency, high cost of cutting.
Other CNC cutting machine, including CNC pipe cutting machine, CNC steel cutting machine, CNC groove cutting machine, CNC woodworking cutting machine, the special cutting equipment is mainly used in CNC cutting all kinds of special shaped materials, few manufacturers on the market at present.
