The Relationship Between Power and Metal Cutting Thickness in Laser Cutting


The Relationship Between Power and Metal Cutting Thickness in Laser Cutting

Laser cutting machines can handle a variety of metal materials, including stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, brass, etc. The thickness of batch cutting depends on the type of metal being cut and the cutting quality requirements.Power and metal cutting thickness in laser cutting is different.Generally speaking, the greater the power, the greater the thickness of metal that can be cut.


6000w power and metal cutting thickness in laser cutting:

- Stainless steel: The thickness that can be cut is about 0.4mm to 25mm.

- Carbon steel (ordinary steel): The thickness that can be cut is about 0.4mm to 25mm or even about 30mm.

- Aluminum and its alloys: The cutting thickness is about 0.4mm to 20mm.

- Brass: The cutting thickness is about 0.4mm to 10mm.


12000W power and metal cutting thickness in laser cutting:

Stainless steel: The thickness can be cut up to about 30mm.

Carbon steel: The thickness can be cut up to 35mm or thicker.

Aluminum and its alloys: The thickness can be cut up to about 30mm.

Brass: The thickness can be cut up to about 15mm.



20000W (20kW) power and metal cutting thickness in laser cutting:

Stainless steel: The thickness can be cut up to about 40-50mm.

Carbon steel: The thickness can be cut up to about 45-60mm.

Aluminum and its alloys: the cutting thickness can reach about 40-50mm.

Brass: The thickness can be cut up to about 20mm.



30000W (30kW) power and metal cutting thickness in laser cutting:

Stainless steel: The cutting thickness can reach more than 60mm.

Carbon steel: The cutting thickness can reach more than 70mm.

Aluminum and its alloys: The thickness can be cut up to about 60mm.

Brass: The thickness can be cut up to 25mm or more.



40000W (40 kw) power and metal cutting thickness in laser cutting:

Stainless steel: can be cut in batches over 50mm.

Carbon steel: can be cut in batches over 70mm.

Aluminum alloy: can be cut in batches over 50mm.


50000W (50 kw) power and metal cutting thickness in laser cutting:

Stainless steel: can be cut in batches above 60mm.

Carbon steel: can be cut in batches above 80mm.

Aluminum alloy: can be cut in batches above 60mm.


60000W (60 kw) power and metal cutting thickness in laser cutting:

Stainless steel: can be cut in batches over 70mm.

Carbon steel: can be cut in batches over 90mm.

Aluminum alloy: can be cut in batches above 70mm.


80000W (80 kw) power and metal cutting thickness in laser cutting:

Stainless steel: can be cut in batches over 90mm.

Carbon steel: can be cut in batches over 100mm.

Aluminum alloy: can be cut in batches up to 110mm.



Please note that these values are for reference only. The actual cuttable thickness will also be affected by factors such as cutting machine brand, material characteristics, cutting parameters (such as cutting speed, focal length, gas type and pressure), required cutting quality, and processing environment. Influence. In industrial applications, in order to maintain high efficiency and high quality cutting results, the actual material thickness used may be lower than the maximum cutting capacity. Always determine specific operating parameters based on the manufacturer's technical documentation and actual test results. If you need to know exactly the cutting capabilities of a specific device, you can consult the laser cutting machine manufacturer or dealer directly.
