Laser cutting and waterjet cutting are two commonly used material cutting technologies, which have different applicability in different occasions. This article will describe the basic principles, advantages and disadvantages of laser cutting and waterjet cutting, and where they are applicable. Laser cutting is a process in which a high-energy-density laser beam is used to locally heat the surface of a workpiece to melt or vaporize it, and then the melted or vaporized material is blown away by a gas or liquid jet to achieve material processing.
Waterjet cutting is a method of cutting workpieces with high-pressure water jets. The basic principle is to pressurize the water to a high water pressure, and then spray the water through the nozzle to form a high-speed jet to cut the workpiece.
Laser cutting and waterjet cutting are commonly used materials cutting techniques, and both have advantages and disadvantages. When choosing a cutting technology, it is necessary to comprehensively consider many factors such as material type, cutting requirements, production efficiency and environmental protection factors, in order to choose the most suitable technology.
Laser cutting is suitable for high-speed, high-precision cutting of thin metals and organic materials, while waterjet cutting is suitable for very fine cutting of heavy metals and stone. Choosing the right cutting technique can increase productivity and quality while also helping to protect the environment.
