 NOTE:

If there are other gas equipment in the workshop, air compressor needs to choose bigger one.

The above is only a reference matching scheme. According to different brands of laser cutting machines and air compressors, there maybe differences in the specific power selection.

Multiple laser cutting machines can use the same air compressor to supply air, but the air supply volume must be calculated.

So what are the characteristics of each of our three models, and what are the model parameters?

&#;7&#;Five-stage filtration,the maximum protection of your laser cutting machine.

The quality of compressed air has a very direct impact on the quality of laser cutting. The compressed air contains water mist and oil. If not cleaned with a high-pressure jet to the protective mirror of the laser cutting head, there will be serious consequences to the transmission of the laser beam, disperse the focus, and cause the product to be cut incompletely and produce waste products.

Therefore, the compressed air system must be equipped with a good dryer to remove the moisture in the compressed air as much as possible, and the high-precision filters must be installed after the dryer to fully filter oil and dust particles.

Once the compressed air is dried, the temperature returns to normal, which can effectively avoid condensation. Such high-quality compressed air can sustain the long-term stable operation of laser cutting machines.

With the development of professional laser cutting machines from small power to high power, the pressure requirement of the air compressor supporting the laser cutting has also increased from the initial 8 bar to 13 bar in the past two years, and now to 16 bar. Higher air pressure brings better cutting quality and higher cutting efficiency.
