Examples of Laser Utilization in the Metal Processing Industry

If you don't know how to remove burrs and polish metal, this is a must-see! We are currently offering a free guidebook that explains the methods for removing burrs and polishing after laser processing, along with processed samples (before and after polishing) of barrel polishing done after laser cutting metal. ▼ Are you facing any of these issues? ■ Struggling with burrs after laser cutting metal ■ Want to know how to reduce or remove burrs ▼ What you can learn from this guidebook ■ Main methods for removing burrs with a barrel polishing machine ■ Process flow of barrel polishing ■ Differences in finish before and after using a barrel polishing machine ▼ Materials tested ■ SUS (stainless steel) ■ Aluminum ■ Brass ■ Iron ▼ Laser processing machine tested Fiber laser GCC series FMC280 We tested it with the compact model of Comnet's fiber laser GCC series "FMC280," which can easily cut metal sheets.

Comnet Co., Ltd. introduces an interview article on its blog featuring Izumi Ju Co., Ltd. (Kita Ward, Tokyo), which manufactures and sells original goods made of metal cut letters inspired by characters at "Jifuda Honpo." They utilize laser processing for the work of cutting metal letters based on motifs such as kanji, hiragana, katakana, English, and numbers from metal plates. They were looking for a metal laser processing machine that could be installed in a limited space within their store, and the "FMC280," a compact fiber laser that does not take up much space, was found to be the perfect machine for Izumi Ju's needs due to its high processing quality and cost-effective introduction. Compared to shearing machines like shears and presses, laser processing with the "FMC280" results in fewer burrs on the cut surface, which has been appreciated for reducing the time needed for the chamfering process. Additionally, they shared insights on the effects after introducing the laser, the reasons for adopting the laser processing machine, and its applications.
