What materials can you cut with a laser?
When choosing the right machine for production, nothing matters more than knowing which materials it can cut. I’ve seen clients invest in the wrong system simply because they didn’t understand this basic, critical fact. Laser cutting machines can handle a wide range of materials—metals, plastics, wood, leather—but only if you choose the right type of […]
Is laser cutting profitable?
Laser cutting machines look high-tech, but are they actually worth the money? Many businesses are asking if these machines can truly pay for themselves—and fast. At Kirin Laser, we’ve seen both the promise and the proof. Yes, laser cutting—especially with fiber laser machines—is highly profitable when used right. Lower scrap rates, faster cycle times, and […]
What is a sheet metal laser cutting service?
When you’re dealing with tight tolerances, high-volume orders, and rising labor costs, traditional cutting methods just don’t cut it anymore. A sheet metal laser cutting service uses fiber laser technology to make precise, fast, and clean cuts in metal materials—ideal for industrial clients who want high efficiency and minimal waste. Fiber laser cutting has become […]
What are the applications of fiber laser cutting machines?
Fiber laser cutting machines aren’t just about cutting metal—they’re about transforming how manufacturers work. From auto parts to HVAC panels, I’ve seen these machines slash production times and boost precision like no other solution on the floor. Fiber laser cutting machines are used in automotive, aerospace, HVAC, electronics, and custom fabrication to cut metals like […]
What is a laser cutting machine?
If your factory is still relying on outdated plasma or waterjet systems, you’re probably bleeding time and profit without even realizing it. A laser cutting machine uses focused laser beams to cut materials with unmatched precision, speed, and cleanliness—making it a game-changer for modern manufacturing. Some people still think fiber lasers are complicated or expensive. […]
Can a laser cut metal gates?
Cutting metal gates sounds tricky — precision matters, edges must be clean, and production must stay fast. But what if I told you that lasers can turn this challenge into a smooth process? Yes, a laser can cut metal gates. Fiber laser cutting machines easily slice through materials like stainless steel and carbon steel, producing […]
What gases are needed for metal laser cutting machines?
When I first started working with laser cutting machines, I didn’t realize how much the choice of assist gas could affect performance. But over time, I saw how the wrong gas could ruin a job, while the right one could save money and improve quality. Laser cutting metal requires the right gas to achieve clean […]
What happens if I don’t clean the lens in a laser machine?
Laser machines are all about precision—but a dirty lens will kill that precision fast. One small oversight, like skipping a simple cleaning, can lead to poor performance, damaged parts, or worse, costly downtime. I’ve seen it firsthand. If you don’t clean your laser lens, it absorbs too much energy, overheats, and may crack—hurting performance and […]
How does laser cutting machine work?
Laser cutting sounds high-tech, but for modern manufacturing, it’s a daily operation. Still, many professionals ask: how exactly does it work, and why is it so effective? A fiber laser cutting machine works by focusing high-powered light to cut through materials with extreme accuracy. It follows digital designs, uses precision optics, and relies on smart […]
Is it safe to laser cut galvanized steel?
If you’ve ever tried cutting galvanized steel with the wrong tool, you know how frustrating it can be. The sparks, rough edges, and toxic fumes are no joke. But is laser cutting a better, safer solution? Yes, it is safe to laser cut galvanized steel—as long as you follow proper ventilation and safety procedures to […]
How do we choose laser cutting machine?
I meet buyers every week who feel lost in technical jargon and price tags. They fear investing in the wrong laser and wasting money. Start with your core material and production goal. Pick fiber lasers for metals and CO₂ lasers for non-metals; match power and bed size to daily work. Many clients switch to us […]
Why is sheet metal laser cutting important?
Laser cutting is not hype. It fixes real production pain. Sheet metal laser cutting is important because it removes the limits of old cutting tools. It gives repeatable accuracy, short lead times, and low scrap, even on complex parts. Laser cutting has moved from “nice-to-have” to “must-have.” I watch clients at Kirin Laser clear bottlenecks, […]
