Przyczyny cięcia piłą tarczową
Z mojego doświadczenia wynika, że maszyny do cięcia laserowego, one common issue I’ve encountered is the formation of cutting sawtooth patterns on cut edges. These jagged edges can significantly impact the quality and aesthetics of the final product, leading to increased finishing costs and potential material waste. Understanding the causes of these sawtooth patterns is crucial for improving cutting precision and efficiency. Over the years, I have identified several key factors that contribute to this problem. In this article, I will explore the causes of sawtooth patterns in laser cutting machines and offer insights on how to mitigate this issue effectively.
Maszyny do cięcia laserowego have revolutionized the manufacturing and fabrication industries, offering precision and efficiency for a wide range of materials. However, one common issue that operators encounter is the appearance of sawtooth patterns on the edges of the cut material. These patterns can compromise the quality of the final product and lead to increased finishing costs. In this blog, I will explore the causes of sawtooth patterns in laser cutting and provide insights on how to mitigate this issue.
What Are Cutting Sawtooth Patterns?
Cutting sawtooth refers to the uneven, jagged edges that can appear along the perimeter of a laser-cut material. Instead of a smooth, clean cut, the material exhibits a series of small, tooth-like projections or indentations. This phenomenon not only compromises the aesthetic quality of the product but can also affect its structural integrity and functionality.
Sawtooth patterns refer to the jagged, tooth-like edges that can occur on the cut surfaces of materials when using a laser cutting machine. Instead of a smooth, clean edge, the cut appears uneven, resembling the teeth of a saw. This phenomenon can occur in various materials, including metals, plastics, and wood, and is often indicative of underlying problems in the cutting process.
Common Causes of Cutting Sawtooth Patterns
Vibration: If the machine vibrates, then the product it cuts will have jagged teeth.
It is divided into two reasons：
One is the external situation of the machine. If the machine is in the process of cutting, such as the water tank, the wind pumping opportunity will not be too close. If it is too close to the machine, then it will vibrate the machine when it is running. Then, when the machine cuts the material, it will generate vibration, which will affect the edge effect of the cutting.
Another reason is the cause of vibration in control. If the motor is not running smoothly, etc., it can also cause this problem. Another reason is that if the machine is not well-tuned, it will happen. If the machine’s running acceleration, or the take-off speed, etc., is not set, then it will happen.
2. The lens is not locked: sometimes, if the lens is not locked, the lens will vibrate when the machine is running, and the light will vibrate when the machine is cutting, and the product that is cut out is not good. There will be sawtooth.
3. The parallelism of the machine: If the parallelism of the machine is not installed, it will not be stable when the machine is running. Then, during the operation, it will also produce jitter, and the cut product will also occur in the sawtooth.
4. Gears, gears, etc.: If the gear carrier has its edge close to the seat, causing slippage, etc., it also causes this to happen.
5. The mechanical components of a laser cutting machine, including the gantry, rails, and mounting, must be precisely aligned and stable. Any mechanical instability or misalignment can cause the cutting head to deviate from its intended path, resulting in sawtooth patterns.
