Fusion Cutting In the laser fusion cutting, the work piece is partially melted and the molten material is ejected by airflow. Because the transfer of the material occurs only in its liquid state, the process is called laser fusion cutting. The laser beam is accompanied by a high purity inert cutting gas that causes the melted material to leave the slot, and the gas itself does not participate in the cutting. Laser fusion cutting can achieve higher cutting speed than gasification. The energy required for gasification is usually higher than the energy required to melt the material. The maximum cutting speed increases with the increase of laser power, and decreases with the increase of plate thickness and the material melting temperature. In the case of laser power under a certain level, the limiting factor is the air pressure at the slot and the thermal conductivity of the material. The laser fusion cutting can get no oxidation incision for iron s...
