Laser Bevel Cutting FAQs
What is laser bevel cutting?
Laser bevel cutting is a precise manufacturing process that uses a laser to cut materials at an angle, creating bevelled edges. This technique is commonly used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and metalworking to produce parts with angled edges for better fit and assembly.
What materials can be cut using laser bevel cutting?
Laser bevel cutting can be used on a variety of materials including metals (such as steel, aluminium, and titanium), plastics, wood, and composites. The choice of material depends on the specific requirements of the project and the capabilities of the laser cutting machine.
How does laser bevel cutting work?
The process involves directing a high-powered laser beam at the material to be cut. The laser melts, burns, or vaporises the material along the cutting path, creating a bevelled edge. The angle of the bevel can be adjusted by tilting the laser head or by using a specialised cutting head.
What applications use laser bevel cutting?
Laser bevel cutting is used in various applications including:
- Sheet Metal Fabrication: Creating parts with bevelled edges for better welding and assembly.
- Aerospace: Cutting components that require precise angles for aerodynamics and assembly.
- Automotive: Manufacturing parts with angled edges for improved fit and strength.
- Signage: Producing signs with bevelled edges for aesthetic appeal.
How does laser bevel cutting compare to traditional bevel cutting methods?
Laser bevel cutting offers several advantages over traditional methods such as plasma or mechanical cutting:
- Higher Precision: Laser cutting produces more accurate and cleaner edges.
- Minimal Heat Affected Zone (HAZ): The laser’s focused heat reduces the area affected by heat, preserving the material properties.
- Reduced Waste: The precision of laser cutting minimises material waste.
