The laser beam is directed to the material via mirrors and lenses. The power of the laser beam can be adjusted as per the cutting requirement. Once this adjustable beam reaches a material, it deflects off its surface and then it passes through an airstream, which blows away the cut part from the rest of the block.
The overall working laser cutting for metal or any other material is easy. First, the laser beam melts the material through a process called sublimation. As soon as this happens, air blows away the material to form a molten ribbon-shaped flow used for ejecting off the cut part from its block.
When it comes to CO2 laser metal cutting, it is performed at atmospheric pressure, which means the metal to be cut, along with other material in its vicinity, gets vacuumed. These materials are easy to re-use for laser cutting after cooling down. In addition, the laser beam is created in a tube filled with CO2 gas.
