What is the laser cutting technique

Laser is an acronym for Light Amplification By Stimulated Emission of Radiation. It is a light source, but with properties that differentiate it from other sources and make it more useful and manageable.

In this technique, the cutting of sheet metal parts is characterized by the use of powerful energy such as laser light concentrated on the work area. It is essential to use pressurized gas, oxygen, nitrogen or CO2 while the cutting process is being carried out in order to evacuate the material.

Nowadays, the use of lasers has become a common resource in manufacturing processes. Laser cutting is a thermal cutting process that employs highly localized melting or vaporization to cut metal using the heat emitted by the beam of light.

Laser cutting allows a precision that is not possible with other techniques and can be easily adjusted without the use of dies. It is a silent process that does not require mechanical contact with the part and ensures minimal material loss. We can say that this is the most advanced technique that can be found in the precision cutting industry.

Laser cutting allows the manufacture of different types of products in different materials. In fact we can say that practically all metals can be cut by laser, only that some absorb radiation better than others. There are materials such as aluminum or brass that do not have this quality and to which a series of treatments are applied to facilitate this.

Stainless steel sheets are one of the materials in which this technique is most commonly used. Most of the products we manufacture at Mecanizados Delinte are made of stainless steel and galvanized sheet metal. These two materials stand out for their strength and resistance to corrosion.

Advantages of the laser cutting technique

Among the main advantages of using the laser technique we can highlight the high cutting speed, the flexibility it allows, the results of clean edges that are perfectly sealed and without protruding. In addition, handling is very simple and cost-effective, even in small batches. We can also say that it is a clean technology, free of pollutants with the consequent importance that this means for the environment.

On today’s laser cutting machines most of the functions are automated. This allows operators to perform simple operations. In addition, the high power ratings make it possible to cut sheets of increasingly thicker thicknesses. The use of inert gases has also increased the cutting speed.

By the 1990s, ultra-fast laser cutting machines began to be introduced and, in combination with integrated punching, they are gaining ground all the time. At Mecanizados Delinte we use laser cutting techniques to manufacture a wide variety of customized products such as electrical mechanical cabinets or control room consoles.

We are aware that in industrial processes there are no manufacturing technologies that are ideal in absolute terms. Each company adjusts the suitability of its production method according to the components to be manufactured. Recent trends tend to focus on shortening product manufacturing and delivery times. And in making high-value products that have a long shelf life.

Global competitiveness

The processes of digitalization and hyperconnectivity, towards which we are tending more and more, contribute to transform the structure of the different organizations but also to increase competitiveness at a global level. Keeping abreast of new technologies seems an absolute necessity for companies like ours. They are a fundamental part of the scientific-technical revolution that we are experiencing in the productive sphere.

Technological innovations in fields such as microelectronics lead to the creation of technological systems that favor production automation processes. The increasingly clear union of science and technology is leading to the emergence of advances in electronics, biotechnology, energy sources, space technologies and new materials.

The emergence of new materials

The emergence of new technologies has its origin in the search for solutions to various objectives, which focus on minimizing the sizes of some parts, finding cheaper forms of energy and more resistant and durable materials, etc. In practice, new technologies can be applied to the production of any type of good. No industry seems to be able to remain on the sidelines of this process.

The trend is towards advances in the production of products that save materials and energy through intensive information processing.

New materials are the post-World War II response to the need to produce materials with specialized properties. Science and engineering came together to modify the properties of matter. This led to the appearance of polymers, ceramics and, what affects us most directly: steels.

The trend to replace traditional materials with more resistant and durable ones has been growing since the last third of the last century. Research is focused on achieving specific properties in these materials. This is the case of resistance to high temperatures, mechanics, corrosion and increased energy efficiency, as well as reductions in density and weight, or increased conductive capabilities, textures, transparency, etc.

We have been able to obtain new metal alloys thanks to the combination of different minerals and the implementation of new processes. By controlling the cooling rate and solidification of the materials, it was possible to modify the microstructure of the materials and the properties associated with them, achieving, for example, high-strength steels.

In addition, weight is reduced, which has been especially important for the construction and automotive industries, as well as our own. We focus the production of our products, such as electrical enclosures, on materials such as stainless steel, aluminum and carbon steel.

SWAS is an acronym that refers to a steam and water analysis system. Certain industries such as thermal power plants operate with steam. One of their main concerns is that this water should be pure, as the presence of impurities can cause corrosion on the metal surfaces of the turbines or the boiler.

For industries that work with steam, it is very important to carry out periodic analyses to certify the purity of the steam and also to monitor the critical parameters in the steam. Including different parameters such as pH, conductivity, silica, sodium, dissolved oxygen, phosphate and chlorides. It is very important that the SWAS is well designed to ensure that the sample is representative.

The motor center cabinets allow grouping the different units and achieve through the internal wiring that some processes can be carried out in automatic mode. They all have integrated protection and cut-off systems to protect the motors, which may be circuit breakers or fuses.

How the motor center cabinets work

Within the motor center cabinets , each cubicle is directly connected to a motor, thus facilitating independent operation. The different cubicles have control panels on which the start and stop buttons are placed so that they can be started or stopped as required.

All cubicles are equipped with power cut-off systems that automatically shut down the motors in case of emergency. By operating independently from the different cubicles, only the machines that are needed can be operated.

The advantages of motor center cabinets

Therefore, motor center cabinets make it possible to automate the operation of motors that can be operated independently. This means that security measures are implemented in an effective way and have a minimum supervision cost.
