New to lasers so I have a question regarding how large of a unit I would need to cut .075 stainless steel (matt finish). Tolerances are +/-.03, also a question of what cutting speed I could expect from a given size. I realize there are alot of variables but any help would be appreaciated.
Thanks Kent.
I use a 4000 watt Trumpf laser for cutting various thicknesses of steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. I have cut .074 (14ga)stainless steel at 245 inches/ minute with nitrogen as the assist gas. If you use Air instead of Nitrogen you can get up to 360 inches/ minute. My machine can accomodate up to 7' by 20' sheets.
