The ensis was engineered specifically for manufacturers that require the high speed cutting capabilities of a fiber laser and the thick.
Amada fiber laser cutting conditions.
Co 2 lasers generally have a bpp of 8 to 9 mm mrad which allows the laser to cut steel stainless and aluminum with very good edge quality.
Plain steel 1mm 10mm ss316 1mm 6mm.
Adjustments occur automatically based on the cut condition selected on the machine s amnc 3i control.
Amada has engineered an advanced motion system.
Fiber laser cutting classification.
Using a laser beam with high energy density to heat the workpiece the temperature rises rapidly reaching the boiling point of the material in a very short period of time and the material begins to vaporize and form vapor.
The fol aj has revolutionized laser cutting.
Amada engineered the 3kw ensis 3015 ri to include an innovative rotary index with the power and speed to efficiently transition from flat sheet to tube or pipe cutting.
The following show 12 6 and 3 2 mm 1 2 1 4 and 10ga mild steel cut with oxygen on a 2kw fiber laser and examples of the same part cut with 1 variable changed to show how it affected the cut quality.
The following data in the laser cutting thickness speed chart is for reference only.
The two most common types of laser cutting machines are fiber laser and co 2.
This system has been specifically engineered to take full advantage of the unique cutting capabilities of fiber laser processing.
This fiber laser cutting machine delivers higher speed and faster acceleration processing by utilizing a carriage with a lower centre of gravity and the latest motion system incorporating high torque motors and helical rack drives.
Incorporating fiber laser cutting technology helps users process a variety of tubing and pipe with greater speeds compared to a co2 system.
I have no prior experience with laser cutting machines but i m a fast learner.
Developed by amada ensis technology infnitely changes the laser beam mode to effciently process thin to thick materials without additional machine setup.
Different fiber optics material quality gases optical lenses cutting patterns etc will affect the cutting speed and need to be adjusted according to site conditions.
The laser beam s quality is measured by the beam parameter product or bpp.
The examples of the adjustments made will be similar for any co2 or fiber laser cutting mild steel with o2.
2 weeks ago i finally finished the installation and the amada technician here in israel came and did all the necessary procedures to turn the machine on.
Fiber lasers generally have a bpp of 1 to 3 mm mrad which allows the laser to cut very fast in thinner materials yet the edge quality in the thicker materials.
