LASER CUTTING METHOD

In a method for laser fusion cutting in particular a plate-shaped workpiece, preferably with a thickness D of at least 1 mm, a laser beam and a cutting gas, in particular nitrogen, at a cutting gas pressure are directed at the workpiece surface by a convergent cutting nozzle. The laser power is at l...

Zusammenfassung:	In a method for laser fusion cutting in particular a plate-shaped workpiece, preferably with a thickness D of at least 1 mm, a laser beam and a cutting gas, in particular nitrogen, at a cutting gas pressure are directed at the workpiece surface by a convergent cutting nozzle. The laser power is at least 6 kW and the cutting nozzle has a nozzle end face on the workpiece side. A distance A between the nozzle end face and the workpiece surface during the cutting operation is 2 to 8 mm. The cutting nozzle has a nozzle channel with a diameter dD at the nozzle end face on the workpiece side of 1.5 to 4 mm. The cutting gas pressure before emergence from the cutting nozzle is 15 to 30 bar. This makes it possible to achieve high productivity along with a reduced risk of collision, i.e. higher process reliability.
