Laser, a form of high-energy, high-power light, possesses the magical ability to incise objects—much like the magical act of burning paper with a magnifying glass in the sunlight.

The birth of lasers, however, involves a more intricate process. Once the laser machine springs to life, the material within the laser tube oscillates and engages in a chemical reaction, leading to a particle number reversal and finally laser generation.

This newborn laser journeys through a light refraction system before emanating from the laser head. It dances upon the material’s surface, and finally achieve the effect of laser cutting or carving.

At the outset, as the laser machine springs to life, the laser head gracefully glides along the automated guide rail.

Simultaneously, the laser, born within the laser tube, converges through the laser head, crafting a high-power density laser beam that bathes the material.

This infusion of laser energy triggers a rapid surge in material temperature. In the wake of this thermal embrace, the material succumbs, melting and transforming into vapor, creating a seam.

The molten seam finds liberation as auxiliary gas quickly blow it away. Meanwhile, the laser head maintains its graceful progress, etching the path of a precise cut.

On the other hand, CO2 laser machines are the hallmark of efficiency and quality in laser processing. Tailored for enterprises and discerning laser enthusiasts, they epitomize the high-end spectrum of laser technology. They belong to the enterprise type laser machine.
