Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of stainless steel tube laser cutting technology, and in particular to a stainless steel tube laser cutting device capable of segmented cutting. Background Technology
[0002] Laser cutting equipment for stainless steel pipes is a high-precision device used for cutting stainless steel pipes. It is widely used in manufacturing, especially in the automotive, machinery, construction, and home appliance industries. Compared with traditional cutting methods, laser cutting technology for stainless steel pipes has advantages such as higher cutting accuracy, faster processing speed, and better cut surface quality.
[0003] Basic working principle of stainless steel tube laser cutting device
[0004] Laser cutting technology uses a high-power laser beam to heat a stainless steel tube to its melting or vaporization point, then uses a gas stream to blow away the molten metal, ultimately cutting the stainless steel tube. The laser cutting process for stainless steel tubes mainly includes the following steps:
[0005] Laser beam focusing: The laser generated by the laser generator is transmitted to the cutting head through an optical fiber, and the laser cutting head focuses the laser onto the surface of the stainless steel tube. The cutting precision is controlled by adjusting the laser's focal length and spot size.
[0006] Gas-assisted cutting: To enhance cutting performance, oxygen, nitrogen, or air are typically used as assist gases. Oxygen can accelerate the cutting process, while nitrogen is often used for cutting materials without an oxide layer.
[0007] Cutting head movement: Under the control of the CNC system, the laser cutting head moves along the surface of the stainless steel tube, and the laser beam gradually cuts the metal along the predetermined path until the cutting is completed.
[0008] Cutting complete: After being irradiated by laser and having the molten metal blown away by airflow, the stainless steel tube is precisely cut into the desired shape.
[0009] Main components of stainless steel pipe laser cutting equipment
[0010] Laser generator:
[0011] The laser generator is the core component that produces the laser beam. Common laser generators include CO2 lasers and fiber lasers. Fiber lasers offer higher efficiency and finer cutting capabilities when cutting stainless steel tubes.
[0012] Fiber optic transmission system:
[0013] The fiber optic system transmits the laser from the laser source to the laser cutting head. The fiber optic transmission system ensures stable laser energy transmission and reduces heat loss.
[0014] Laser cutting head:
[0015] The laser cutting head focuses a laser beam onto the surface of a stainless steel tube. Modern laser cutting heads are equipped with an autofocus system that adjusts the focal length according to the material thickness to achieve optimal cutting results.
[0016] Numerical Control System (CNC):
[0017] The CNC system is the "brain" of a laser cutting machine, responsible for controlling the precise movement of the cutting head. By inputting the designed cutting path, the CNC system can precisely control the movement trajectory of the laser head in three-dimensional space, ensuring high-precision cutting.
[0018] Auxiliary gas system:
[0019] Laser cutting requires the use of auxiliary gases (such as oxygen, nitrogen, and air) to assist in the cutting process. These gases remove molten metal, prevent material oxidation, and keep the cut surface clean.
[0020] Cooling system:
[0021] During laser cutting, the laser and cutting head may generate a lot of heat, requiring a cooling system to maintain the equipment at a normal temperature and prevent overheating damage.
[0022] Chip removal system:
[0023] The molten metal slag and gas generated during laser cutting need to be removed promptly by a chip removal system to avoid affecting the cutting quality or damaging the equipment.
[0024] Features and advantages of laser cutting of stainless steel pipes
[0025] High-precision cutting:
[0026] Laser cutting technology can achieve very precise cuts with an error as small as ±0.1mm, making it suitable for cutting complex shapes and precision parts.
[0027] Non-contact cutting:
[0028] Laser cutting does not involve direct contact between the tool and the workpiece, thus avoiding tool wear and reducing mechanical deformation and vibration during the cutting process.
[0029] Fast cutting speed:
[0030] Laser cutting is fast, especially for thin-walled stainless steel pipes, which can significantly improve production efficiency.
[0031] Smooth cut surface:
[0032] During laser cutting, the cut surface is relatively smooth and the oxide layer is thin, reducing the need for subsequent processing and cleaning.
[0033] Highly adaptable:
[0034] Laser cutting can cut tubes of various thicknesses and shapes, and is widely adaptable. It is not only suitable for stainless steel, but can also process a variety of metal materials such as aluminum, copper, and titanium.
[0035] High efficiency and energy saving:
[0036] Because of the high focused energy density of the laser beam, the energy utilization rate during the cutting process is high, and materials are saved, reducing energy consumption.
[0037] Application areas of laser cutting of stainless steel pipes
[0038] Construction and decoration:
[0039] Laser cutting can precisely cut stainless steel pipes and is widely used in the production of structural components such as building decoration, railings, and door and window frames.
[0040] auto industry:
[0041] In the automobile manufacturing process, laser cutting is used to cut stainless steel tubular components such as chassis, exhaust pipes, and brackets.
[0042] Mechanical manufacturing:
[0043] Laser-cut stainless steel tubes can be used to manufacture precision mechanical parts, such as drive shafts and frames.
[0044] Medical devices:
[0045] Laser cutting technology is also used in the medical device industry to manufacture precision components such as surgical instruments and catheters.
[0046] Furniture and home appliances:
[0047] Stainless steel pipes are commonly used in structural components of modern furniture and home appliances, and laser cutting can ensure cutting precision and aesthetics.
[0048] Challenges of Laser Cutting Stainless Steel Pipes
[0049] Despite the many advantages of laser cutting technology, there are also some challenges in its use:
[0050] High cost:
[0051] Laser cutting equipment is expensive, especially high-power fiber lasers, which are suitable for large-scale production, but require a large initial investment.
[0052] Cutting thickness limit:
[0053] Laser cutting has limited cutting thickness for stainless steel pipes. Although it is excellent for thin-walled pipes, it may require a higher power laser or multiple cuts for thicker pipes.
[0054] Thermal effects of materials:
[0055] The high temperature during laser cutting may have a thermal effect on certain parts of the stainless steel tube, causing local deformation or oxidation. Therefore, it is necessary to select the cutting parameters appropriately.
[0056] In the existing technology, although the stainless steel tube laser cutting device can cut normally and in sections, the waste generated during cutting needs to be cleaned up manually by the staff, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and cannot be easily recycled, thus reducing the practicality of the device.
[0057] Therefore, we propose a laser cutting device for stainless steel pipes that can be cut in segments. Utility Model Content
