Aluminium Laser Cutting is a metal fabrication process that uses a high-powered laser beam to precisely cut and shape aluminium materials. Aluminium is a popular material because it is lightweight and versatile.
Lotus Steel’s Aluminium laser cutting services provide businesses and individuals with high-precision metal fabrication and cutting solutions in Sydney NSW. We have experienced professionals who use cutting-edge technology that caters to a wide range of applications.
Key Points of Aluminium Laser Cutting at Lotus Steel
Compatibility of Material – Laser cutting is well-suited for aluminium and its alloys, including 5000, 6000, and 7000 series. The specific alloy and thickness will influence the laser parameters and settings required.
Laser Types – Lotus Steel utilises fibre lasers for cutting aluminium. These types of laser machine is renowned for their efficiency, precision and suitability for reflective materials like aluminium.
Reflectivity – The high reflectivity of aluminium can affect the laser beam’s power density and focus. It potentially hinders the cut quality. That’s why Lotus Steel uses fibre laser for cutting aluminium. We also cut this type of material with extra care and specialised optics to achieve the best results.
Material Thickness – At Lotus Steel, we carefully manage the laser’s speed and power setting according to the thickness of the aluminium to ensure effective cutting. For thicker materials, more power and slower cutting speeds are required.
Ventilation and Extraction – Fumes and particles are produced when cutting aluminium. These can be harmful when inhaled. That’s why having adequate ventilation and fume extraction systems is necessary. At Lotus Steel, we ensure proper ventilation to provide a safe and clean environment for their workers.
Laser Safety – Laser safety is essential in every fabrication company. At Lotus Steel, operators and other personnel working near the laser cutting area are provided with appropriate laser-protective eyewear. 
Additionally, staff are well-trained in laser safety protocols.
CAD Design – Having a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) file of the design or pattern for the Aluminium laser cutting is essential. Lotus Steel provides CAD file guides for the laser cutting machine to ensure accuracy.
Prototype and Testing – When working with a specific aluminium alloy, Lotus Steel can create prototypes and conduct testing to optimise settings and ensure desired results.
