Comparison of the two processes of laser cutting and wire cutting

There are many different equipments for cutting metal plates, so the effect of the processing technology is quite different. Below we will compare the two different processing technologies of laser cutting machine and traditional wire cutting for your analysis. Let’s take a look at the quality of these two processes. The technical term for traditional wire cutting process wire cutting is 'Wire EDM, which came out in the Soviet Union in 1960 and has a history of more than 50 years. The principle of cutting is that free positive ions and electrons accumulate in the field, and they will soon be formed. An ionized conductive channel. At this stage, an electric current is formed between the two plates. This leads to countless collisions between the particles, forming a plasma zone, which quickly rises to a high temperature of 8000 to 12000 degrees, and instantaneously melts some on the surface of the two conductors. At the same time, due to the vaporization of the electrode and the dielectric fluid, a bubble is formed, and its pressure rises regularly until it is very high. Then the current is interrupted and the temperature suddenly drops, causing the bubble to explode inwardly, and the generated power throws the molten material into the crater , And then the corroded material recondenses into small spheres in the dielectric fluid, and is drained away by the dielectric fluid. Features: Whether the wire cutting is fast wire or slow wire, the cutting accuracy and cutting finish are better than laser The cutting machine is high and the cutting thickness is within 1000mm, but the cutting material for wire cutting is limited to conductive materials. Laser cutting process The main principle of laser cutting machine is to use laser to cut processing (for details, please refer to the working principle of laser cutting machine). It is characterized by fast cutting speed, high processing accuracy, and wide processing range. It can cut both metal and non-metal, and can process different materials according to different laser generators. The processing cost of laser cutting machine is higher than that of wire cutting. It must be high, but wire cutting is only suitable for fine slow work. If it is processed for customers and mass-produced, laser cutting machines are very competitive equipment.
