The cutting quality of laser cutting machines can be evaluated based on the following four core criteria:
Cutting speed is a crucial indicator for judging the performance level of laser cutting. For metal processing, "speed equals cost-effectiveness." A higher cutting speed means:
- Higher output value per unit time;
- Lower labor costs and electricity consumption per unit time.
Cutting accuracy is the second key indicator for assessing laser cutting performance. The cutting accuracy of a laser cutting machine is determined by a combination of factors. A high-precision laser cutting machine typically meets the following requirements simultaneously:
- Stable machine bed;
- Responsive crossbeam;
- Accurate guide rail and transmission system;
- Precise control via the operating system.
Whether the equipment is simple to use and easy to master is also an important criterion for measuring the practicality of laser equipment. Intuitive operation reduces the learning curve for operators and improves work efficiency.
The stability of equipment performance is directly related to its long-term usage effect. Therefore, when selecting laser equipment, attention should be paid to evaluating two key aspects:
- Long-term performance stability;
- Service life of the equipment.
