Abstract

The parameters of laser cutting mainly depend on material and from thickness. In case of a given material and thickness many settings can be chosen. In this article we examine the laser cutting of 0,4 mm thickness stainless steel sheets with pulsed Nd:YAG laser. We examine the effect of cutting speed on cut quality in case of three different combinations of pulse energy and pulse frequency. Good cut quality and relatively high cutting speed can be achieved with 800 Hz and 20.7 mJ setting, we can cut higher speed, but poor cut quality with 400 Hz and 49 mJ setting.
