The current problems and future development directions of domestic metal laser cutting machines
Laser cutting is a non-contact processing, using high-energy laser beams and the adjustable function of laser head movement, and then can achieve the purpose of processing a variety of materials, can cut metal or non-metal, or engrave pattern marks on the surface of the material, etc. , Can also realize the welding of two objects, as well as punching and other applications. In recent years, the technology of my country’s laser cutting industry has developed rapidly and opened up its own application areas. After all, the domestic metal laser cutting machine is cheaper than imported, and the quality has kept up with the world’s development level. So what are the problems of the laser cutting machine in my country at this stage, and what is the future development direction?
After more than 40 years of development, my country’s laser technology industry also has a relatively deep technical and material foundation. The country has also cultivated a group of talents in the laser industry, and some well-known universities, such as Tsinghua University and Beijing University of Technology, have invested a lot of material and manpower in the research and development of laser cutting machines. The laser industry chain in my country mainly includes cutting, marking and welding. It is also widely used in China’s industrial electronics industry, light industry, and heavy industry. Metal laser cutting machines are mainly used in the fields of machinery, aviation, shipbuilding, automobiles, and electronics. In these industries, laser cutting machines are very important equipment.
Because the R&D, production and application of laser cutting machines involve a lot of professional knowledge and span a wide range of fields. For example, the manufacture of fiber lasers is a very esoteric subject, and then involves numerical control micro-control technology, as well as optoelectronics-related technologies. There are many fields across, and the depth and accuracy of knowledge in each field have relatively high requirements. At this stage, none of my country’s laser equipment manufacturers have the ability to be proficient in multiple fields at the same time. Then the links between the various links in this industry chain are not strong enough.
The technology of laser cutting machine is not perfect and can not meet the requirements of the market, so there are many problems in actual applications. We must take this as a warning, find ways to solve the problems and then solve these problems. At this stage, we have some ideas about the development of metal laser cutting machines, which is to focus on laser research and development, multi-field and multi-industry enterprise cooperation as the main body, domestic and imported enterprises as a bridge, and focus on solving the core components of laser cutting machines. Based on the technical bottleneck of our children, we can solve the key problems in practical applications.
