Wide application of fiber cutting head in elevator industry

As we all know, the commonly used materials for elevators are stainless steel plates and membrane materials. These materials require high smoothness. There are a variety of sheet metal parts in the elevator market, and some even need to be customized according to customer requirements. Tonnage and molds are also limited. The multi-station punching machine sometimes cannot meet the processing requirements, and sometimes the mold manufacturing cycle is long, which makes the production cycle longer. Therefore, it is gradually replaced by fiber laser cutting machine.

What is the difference between traditional elevator processing methods and fiber laser technology? How to break through fiber laser cutting in the elevator market?

1. Traditional processing methods

In the past, the whole machine factory mainly used multi-station punching machines to process plates, mainly including turning, milling, planing, drilling, grinding and other processing procedures. They mainly rely on mechanical external force and harder tools to complete the stripping process of the excess metal layer. The scheme is complex, the workpiece is easy to replace, and consumes a lot of manpower, material and financial resources.

2. CO2 laser processing method

The CO2 laser cutting machine is the first laser processing equipment in the domestic elevator industry. Non-mechanical energy, such as light, electricity and chemistry, is used to complete the exfoliation process of the material. Lower hardness materials can be used to machine higher hardness materials. Compared with traditional processing methods, laser processing has unique advantages such as non-contact, easy processing, safety and environmental protection.

Fiber laser head cutting machines occupy the elevator market

The elevator is mainly made of about 3mm stainless steel, and the CO2 laser cutting machine is used for high power consumption and large gas consumption. The CO2 laser cutting machine has high cost and complicated debugging, which cannot keep up with the development of the elevator industry. The new fiber laser head cutting machine has the advantages of extremely fast speed, extremely low operating cost, cutting copper and aluminum and other highly reflective materials, and no external optical path, and gradually replaces the CO2 laser head cutting machine as the preferred tool. Elevator industry.

There are many stainless steel sheets and films in the elevator industry, which require high smoothness of cross-section. Compared with traditional CNC punching machines, laser head cutting has the advantages of high surface finish and no trimming. No mold loss and other advantages. The fiber laser head cutting machine can also cut thinner and smaller sharp corners, which effectively avoids the forming deformation of the workpiece during the punching process and improves the core competitiveness of the product. Higher cutting precision and faster processing.

So, what are the benefits of laser cutting machine for elevator processing?

1. Short processing cycle

There are many small sheet metal parts in the elevator industry, many of which need to be determined according to customer requirements. Due to the limitation of tonnage and molds, the processing of multi-station punches cannot handle some sheet metal parts or molds with long manufacturing cycles, resulting in long production cycles, relatively complex programming, and higher requirements for operators. Therefore, the advantages of flexible processing of the fiber laser cutting machine are brought into play, and the product development cost is reduced.

2. Good cutting effect

Many stainless steel trim panels have high surface finish requirements. The processed lines should be smooth and beautiful. Multi-station punching can easily affect the smoothness of the board surface. The laser head processing device has no mechanical stress, which avoids the deformation during the cutting process, improves the quality of the elevator, improves the grade of the product, and improves the core competitiveness of the enterprise.

3. High processing flexibility

With the improvement of people's aesthetic level, the fancyness of products also increases, and the appearance of products increases, but the number is small and the outline is complex, which cannot be realized by general processing methods. Laser head cutting is highly automated and intelligent. It can process various special-shaped workpieces, effectively reduce the labor intensity of operators, and optimize the production process.
