What is the laser cutting speed of the machine and how does it affect production time?

This is a common question that many customers ask when they are looking for a laser cutting and engraving machine. In this blog post, we will explain what cutting speed is, how it is measured, and how it impacts the efficiency and quality of your laser projects. We will also introduce you to Redsail, a professional manufacturer and supplier of laser cutting and engraving machine with over 20 years of experience in the industry.

Cutting speed is the rate at which the laser beam moves across the material surface. It is usually expressed in millimeters per second (mm/s) or inches per minute (ipm). Cutting speed depends on several factors, such as the type and thickness of the material, the power and wavelength of the laser, the focal length and diameter of the lens, the air pressure and gas flow, and the cutting mode (continuous or pulsed).

Cutting speed affects both the production time and the quality of your laser projects. Generally speaking, a higher cutting speed means a shorter production time, but it may also result in lower quality or incomplete cuts. A lower cutting speed means a longer production time, but it may also result in higher quality or more precise cuts. Therefore, finding the optimal cutting speed for your specific material and application is crucial to achieve the best results.
