Laser Cutting An Innovation For Highly Accurate And Precision Cutting

Laser cutting is a methodology that uses a laser beam on the surface of the material which has to be cut. This methodology is mostly used in the industrial sector where large blocks of materials like iron and steel have to be cut to the required sizes. The process technically is similar to laser, marking and laser engraving. Even in this case, high power laser beam is directed onto the metal surface through optical devices like convergent lenses. Computer numerical controls are used to direct the laser beams onto the material surface, which either melts or vaporises the material surface at the point of requirement, thereby living a very high quality finish at that point of cutting. Before the laser cutter or the laser cutting machine, became to be used extensively. These kinds of laser machines are mostly used to drill holes on the material surface. Advanced technology later on was used to cut material surfaces for aerospace applications, which needed a very fine finish. The disadva...
