Fiber Laser Cutting
It’s a process that utilizes a fiber laser for cutting. In this process, the fiber laser transmits the laser beam to the cutting head through fiber optics, where it is focused onto the surface of the workpiece to perform cutting with high energy density. Fiber laser cutting is characterized by its high speed, precision, efficiency, and versatility across various materials, making it widely used in industrial manufacturing for metals, non-metals, and composite materials alike.

Applications for Laser Cut Parts
Laser cutting of parts is a prevalent manufacturing method employed across industries like energy storage, computer electronics, robotics, and aerospace. Typical components produced through this method encompass:
- Flat parts: Laser cutting is suitable for cutting flat parts such as sheets, panels, and bases.
- Geometric shapes: Laser cutting can accurately cut various geometric shapes, including rectangles, circles, ellipses, and polygons.
- Holes and cutouts: Laser cutting can easily cut holes and cutouts for connecting or assembling parts.
- Engraving and marking: Laser cutting can also be used to engrave or mark on the surface of parts for identification, traceability, or decorative purposes.
- Bending and folding: While laser cutting is primarily used for flat parts, it can be used to pre-cut parts for subsequent bending or folding into the desired shapes.
