If you are cutting via a co 2 laser with oxygen the edgeracer can remove any oxide layers along the cutting edge of the material.
Laser edge oxide removal.
Using the laser s micron precision oxide can be removed in controlled layers and from predefined areas.
The 22 series is the most compact dry operating machine for deburring edge rounding finishing and or laser oxide removal of various sheet metal parts.
Laser oxide removal before welding and several other surface treatments metal surfaces must be clean and without oxides.
Today the 107 5 by 59 1 by 60 2 in.
Harrison added that typically one of the laser operators in the cell has time to send parts through the machine avoiding potential bottlenecks.
Even at the speed at which laser cutting machines operate harrison said the oxide removal equipment can keep up.
In some cases paint removal by sandblasting can damage the metal underneath.
Laser oxide removal can be used to remove those contaminants without introducing impurities in the base metal.
The problem is that the cost for nitrogen gas is generally five to six times greater than.
Furthermore a radius at the edge of the materials also improves paint adhesion.
We could avoid the laser oxide problem completely by using nitrogen as an assist gas on our lasers instead.
Another machine in the future.
Truthfully some of the lasers are cutting with nitrogen most of the time but for those laser cut parts with an oxide layer on the edges the machine is more than able to keep up with the parts flow.
The 22 rb series for deburring edge rounding finishing and laser oxide removal.
Oxide edge is a term used to describe the forming of carbon oxide along the edges of parts usually as a result of laser cutting as gas is introduced during the thermal metal cutting process.
Dealing with these problems usually comes at a significant cost but laser cleaning is changing this.
Oxide removal may involve hazardous chemicals specific to each material that needs to be removed.
Punched and laser cut parts often require high demands on the surface.
The ideal machine for companies with more.
This oxidation or scale left over from thermal cutting can cause problems for metal finishers and end customers alike.
It takes about 20 or 30 seconds for a part to process through the machine.
Nitrogen prevents oxidation and leaves a clean edge that s ready for welding or painting.
Fiber laser cleaning systems can remove.
The process creates a carbon oxide scale which appears as a shiny blue silver finish on and around the cut areas.
