Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of laser cutting, and in particular to a stainless steel plate laser cutting device and a use method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Laser cutting is one of the thermal cutting methods. Most organic and inorganic materials can be cut by laser. In the metal processing industry, which occupies a large part of the industrial manufacturing system, many metal materials, no matter what their hardness, can be cut without deformation. Laser cutting has no burrs, wrinkles, high precision, and is better than plasma cutting. For many electromechanical manufacturing industries, since the modern laser cutting system controlled by microcomputer programs can easily cut workpieces of different shapes and sizes, it is often preferred over punching and molding processes; although its processing speed is slower than die punching, it has no mold consumption, no need to repair the mold, and saves time to replace the mold, thereby saving processing costs and reducing production costs, so it is more cost-effective overall.
[0003] Laser cutting uses a focused high-power density laser beam to irradiate the workpiece, quickly heating the material to the vaporization temperature and evaporating to form holes. As the beam moves across the material, the holes continuously form narrow slits, causing the irradiated material to quickly melt, vaporize, ablate or reach the ignition point. At the same time, the molten material is blown away by a high-speed airflow coaxial with the beam, thereby cutting the workpiece.
[0004] In the prior art, the laser beam is usually directly irradiated on the material to be cut. As the beam and the material move linearly relative to each other, the holes are continuously formed into a narrow slit, which cuts the material to be cut. This method has the characteristics of small laser spot, high energy density and fast cutting speed. However, during cutting, the laser beam is concentrated at the slit, resulting in uneven stress distribution at the slit, causing slight deformation at the cutting edge of the formed material, which affects the cutting effect.
[0005] Therefore, a stainless steel plate laser cutting device and a method for using the same are developed to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0034] The present invention solves the defects existing in the background technology and has the following beneficial effects:
[0035] (1) The present invention provides a stainless steel plate laser cutting device and a method for using the same. The device ensures cutting accuracy through calibration and positioning. The user only needs to input the stainless steel plate parameters and the desired number of cutting rounds, and the device will automatically calculate the cutting depth of each round, which greatly reduces human errors and improves the consistency and accuracy of cutting. The device adopts a two-group cutting design, each group of cutting has a specific cutting angle and distance, which not only increases the flexibility of cutting, but also can handle various complex stainless steel plate shapes, thereby improving cutting efficiency.
[0036] (2) By inputting the parameters of the stainless steel plate and the desired number of cutting rounds, the present invention can automatically calculate the depth of each cutting round, thereby ensuring that each cutting round can reach the expected depth, improving the cutting accuracy and consistency. The calibration positioning not only simplifies the operation process, but also greatly reduces human errors and improves work efficiency.
[0037] (3) After setting the cutting angle and distance of the upper and lower laser heads, the present invention controls the laser head to perform multiple cutting from one side to the other. This multi-round cutting method can ensure the accuracy and depth of the cutting, while reducing the burrs in the heat-affected zone and the cutting edge, thereby improving the cutting quality. In addition, by adjusting the cutting path spacing of the laser head, the cutting effect can be further optimized and material waste can be reduced.
[0038] (4) In the reverse angle cutting, the present invention sets the cutting angles of the upper and lower laser heads to be opposite, which helps to further remove the burrs and heat-affected zones left after the first round of cutting and improve the smoothness of the cut surface. At the same time, by adjusting the single cutting distance, the roughness of the material surface can be better controlled to meet the needs of different applications.
[0039] (5) This method can gradually improve the cutting effect and finally obtain a high-quality cutting surface; after N rounds of cutting are completed, the stainless steel plate will be rolled up for subsequent processing or transportation. This continuous cutting method greatly improves production efficiency and reduces manual intervention and downtime. At the same time, the cycle cutting also helps to maintain the temperature and pressure inside the equipment stable, further improving the cutting quality.
[0040] (6) The present invention arranges multiple rounds of cutting, each of which cuts at the same depth, so that the stress can be evenly distributed on different levels, avoiding excessive local stress that may be caused by direct cutting; and the angles of the upper and lower laser heads are alternated, and the cutting paths of each round are also alternated, so that the stress can be avoided from being concentrated in only one direction, thereby reducing the degree of stress concentration;
[0041] At the same time, cutting is stopped after each round of cutting, and cutting is performed again after moving a certain distance, so that the stress is released, which solves the problem that stress is difficult to release after a one-time cutting in the prior art; at the same time, the spacing of each cutting path remains consistent, which can make the stress distribution more uniform, and will not cause local stress points to appear due to changes in path spacing, further improving the uniformity of stress distribution.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0047] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a method for using a stainless steel plate laser cutting device, which is characterized by comprising the following steps:
[0049] S1. Calibration and positioning: Place the stainless steel plate on the workbench for calibration and positioning, input the width D and thickness H of the stainless steel plate and the desired number of cutting rounds N, and set the cutting depth of each round to h = H / 2N;
[0050] S2, initial angle cutting: set the cutting angle α of the upper laser head and the first cutting distance L of the upper laser head, the cutting angle β of the lower laser head and the first cutting distance S of the lower laser head, control the upper and lower laser heads to perform multiple cutting from one side of the stainless steel plate to the other side, and the cutting path spacing is d;
[0051] S3, reverse angle cutting: set the cutting angle of the upper laser head to -α and the cutting angle of the lower laser head to -β, the single cutting distance of the upper laser head and the lower laser head are both R, take the end of the first cutting path in S1 as the starting point, control the upper and lower laser heads to perform multiple cutting from one side of the stainless steel plate to the other side, and the cutting path spacing is R;
[0052] S4. After N rounds of cycles of steps S2 to S3, the cutting is completed and the stainless steel plate is rolled up by the rolling unit.
[0053] In S1, the stainless steel plate is placed on the workbench and calibrated and positioned as follows:
[0054] S11. Place the stainless steel plate on the workbench and fix the plate on the workbench using a plate positioning clamp;
[0055] S12. Adjust the upper laser head and the lower laser head to be perpendicular to the surface of the stainless steel plate and to the cutting position to complete the calibration and positioning.
[0056] By inputting the parameters of the stainless steel plate and the desired number of cutting rounds in S1, the equipment can automatically calculate the depth of each cutting round, which can ensure that each round of cutting can reach the expected depth, improve the accuracy and consistency of cutting, and the calibration positioning not only simplifies the operation process, but also greatly reduces human errors and improves work efficiency.
[0057] In S2, the cutting angle of the upper laser head is 1°≤α≤3°, and the cutting angle of the lower laser head is 3°<β≤5°.
[0058] In S2, the relationship between the first cutting distance L of the upper laser head, the first cutting distance S of the lower laser head and the cutting path spacing d is one of L:S:d=1:1 / 3~2 / 3:1 and L:S:d=1 / 3~2 / 3:1:1.
[0059] In S2, controlling the upper and lower laser heads to perform multiple cutting from one side of the stainless steel plate to the other side includes the following steps:
[0060] S21, the upper laser head cuts one side of the stainless steel plate by a length of L, and the lower laser head cuts the other side of the stainless steel plate by a length of S, and the end coordinates of the first cutting paths of the upper laser head and the lower laser head are recorded;
[0061] S22, the upper laser head and the lower laser head stop cutting, and both move a distance d along the cutting direction;
[0062] S23, loop steps S21 and S22 until the total cutting distance of the upper laser head N*(L+d)=D, the total cutting distance of the lower laser head N*(S+d)=D, and the initial angle cutting is completed.
[0063] Step S2: After setting the cutting angle and distance of the upper and lower laser heads, control the laser head to perform multiple cuts from one side to the other. This multi-round cutting method can ensure the accuracy and depth of the cutting, while reducing the burrs in the heat-affected zone and the cutting edge, and improving the cutting quality. In addition, by adjusting the cutting path spacing of the laser head, the cutting effect can be further optimized and material waste can be reduced.
[0064] In S3, starting from the end of the first cutting path in S1, the upper and lower laser heads are controlled to perform multiple cutting from one side of the stainless steel plate to the other side. The specific steps are as follows:
[0065] S31, reading the coordinates of the end of the first cutting path of the upper laser head (X1, Y1) and the coordinates of the end of the first cutting path of the lower laser head (X2, Y2) recorded in S1;
[0066] S32, set the starting point coordinates of the reverse angle cutting of the upper laser head to (X1, Y1), and the starting point coordinates of the reverse angle cutting of the lower laser head to (X2, Y2), and both cut a length R toward the other end of the stainless steel plate;
[0067] S33, the upper laser head and the lower laser head stop cutting, and both move a distance R along the cutting direction;
[0068] S34, loop steps S32 and S33 until the total cutting distance of the upper laser head is X1+N*(R+R)=D, and the total cutting distance of the lower laser head is Y1+N*(R+R)=D, and the reverse angle cutting is completed.
[0069] In S3, the cutting angle of the upper laser head is 3°<|-α|≤5°, and the cutting angle of the lower laser head is 1°≤|-β|≤3°.
[0070] In the reverse angle cutting of S3, setting the cutting angles of the upper and lower laser heads to opposite angles helps to further remove the burrs and heat-affected zones left after the first round of cutting and improve the smoothness of the cut surface. At the same time, by adjusting the single cutting distance, the roughness of the material surface can be better controlled to meet the needs of different applications.
[0071] In S4, when the steps S2 to S3 are looped, the starting point of each cutting path of the upper laser head will be moved back by a single cutting distance value compared with the starting point of each cutting path of the lower laser head.
[0072] After N rounds of cutting are completed, the stainless steel plate will be rolled up for subsequent processing or transportation. This continuous cutting method greatly improves production efficiency and reduces manual intervention and downtime. At the same time, cycle cutting also helps to maintain stable temperature and pressure inside the equipment, further improving cutting quality.
[0073] This method performs a round of reverse cutting after the initial angle cutting. This forward and reverse cutting method helps to reduce stress concentration at the cut. The forward and reverse cutting paths can offset part of the stress and make the stress distribution near the cut more uniform. Multiple cycles of cutting can further reduce the possibility of stress concentration and improve cutting stability and the quality of the finished product.

[0112] One sample was randomly selected from the stainless steel plates obtained in Example 1, Example 2 and Comparative Example 1 for testing; an MM-400N microscope was used to illuminate the cut edge of the sample in a strong light source environment with a luminous flux of 300 lumens and a color temperature of 4500K, so as to more accurately observe the burr condition of the cut edge.

[0121]
[0122] In the above table, tensile strength and compressive strength respectively represent the strength of the experimental group of materials under tension and compression. The higher the value, the greater the strength of the material; the number of burrs refers to the number of burrs on the surface of the experimental group of materials, and the smaller the value, the lower the degree of burrs; the burr degree level is represented by letters A, B, and C, with A level representing the least burrs and C level representing the most burrs.
[0123] From the above data, it can be seen that compared with Example 1, Example 2 has higher tensile strength and burr number, and the burr degree level is A, which is worse than Example 1; Comparative Example 1 performs worse than Example 1 and Example 2 in all indicators, and its tensile strength and compressive strength are the lowest, the number of burrs is the largest, and the burr degree level is C.
[0124] In short, Example 2 performs best, followed by Example 1, and Comparative Example 1 performs worst. The material strength and burr performance of Example 2 are better than those of the other two experimental groups; compared with the prior art, the present method can disperse stress and make the stress distribution more uniform. At the same time, compared with vertical cutting, the present method uses multiple rounds of cutting combined with angle cutting to reduce the number of burrs at the cutting seam.
[0125] The above is based on the ideal embodiment of the present invention. Through the above description, relevant personnel can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of the present invention. The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the content in the specification, and the technical scope must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
