What Affects Laser Cutting Process




If you are not aware of it yet, the word laser refers to the phrase ‘Laser Amplification of the Stimulated Emission of Radiation’. In simple words, it means a beam of light created through a resonator that emits radiation of identical frequency. During each process of laser cutting in Toronto, the material compositions as well as its surfaces have a huge influence on how the laser cuts the said material. As laser cutting is also a kind of aerodynamic activity, material surface reflectivity or defect can adversely affect the quality of cut. Moreover, contaminated surfaces also have a negative impact since gas flow can be deflected on the dirt.



These are the major reasons why laser cutting in Toronto is very particular about the material surface. Different surfaces affect the resulting cut by influencing the performance of a laser machine. In the case of sandblasted materials, any sand residue can cause problems because of its silicon content that may deflect the laser beam focus as well as negatively affect gas flow. As for painted surfaces, either brushed or sprayed on paints interfere with the cutting process. A warping surface can also impact gas flow, affecting the quality of the cut.



Conversely, galvanized surfaces can lead to a successful result of laser cutting in Toronto with the use of nitrogen as the removed galvanizing will make the cut edges exposed to atmospheric degradation. Lastly, among the various material surfaces, oiled surfaces have no adverse impact on the quality of the cut. It does, in fact, helps in the process by prohibiting the slag from sticking on the surface. Metal Tronics provides the top quality laser cutting in Toronto through the latest precision laser technologies and machinery we are using. Our industry expertise makes us the leader in this field, providing the most reliable laser cutting services in the region.
