How does a laser work?
LASER stands for ‘Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation’. In the resonator of a laser source – in material processing, these are often CO2 lasers – a special kind of light beam is generated by the action of electric energy. With closed CO2 gas mix laser beam sources, the laser is maintenance-free and uses no laser gas - similar to a fluorescent tube.
The focussing optic mostly consists of an optical convex lens and a cutting nozzle. The parallel laser beam is thus only a few millimetres underneath the cutting nozzle, focussed on the top of the material being processed. This extremely sharply-focussed, CNC-controlled energy beam with a very high level of energy density now has to travel over the cutting or engraving contours at a constant distance and uniform speed. The laser light operation is completely contact-less,can set your hands free and very safe.
