Supply Scope
Apart from compressor main units, we provide air tanks, refrigerated dryers, precision filters and other post-treatment equipment. One-stop air source system services cover solution planning, pipeline design, installation, commissioning, training and after-sales support.
Laser-cutting Dedicated Integrated PM VSD Screw Air Compressor
Match the Laser Power First
When selecting an air compressor for laser cutting, match the laser power first. Calculate peak air consumption and reserve 20% to 30% extra capacity to offset pipeline pressure loss.
Select Pressure by Plate Thickness
13 bar is commonly used for thin sheet cutting. 16 bar is recommended for thick metal plates to maintain stable pressure and reduce edge oxidation and dross.
Strictly Control Air Quality
Oil and moisture will damage laser lenses and cutting heads, so refrigerated dryers and multi-stage precision filters are required. Water-lubricated oil-free models are available for high-purity demands.
PM VSD screw compressors are preferred; they adjust speed dynamically for fluctuating air demand and save energy during 24h continuous production.
Choose Integrated or Split Units
Choose 4-in-1 integrated or split units based on workshop space, and match existing air tanks and post-treatment equipment. We supply complete air source solutions including pipeline layout, installation, commissioning and after-sales support for stable long-run laser cutting.
FAQ
Q1: What pressure of air compressor is suitable for laser cutting?
13 bar is commonly used for thin plate cutting. 16 bar is recommended for thick metal plates to keep stable air pressure and reduce cutting dross.
Q2: Why choose a PM VSD screw compressor for laser cutting?
Laser cutting has fluctuating air demand. Permanent magnet VSD automatically adjusts speed, cuts no-load loss and saves much energy. It also ensures stable pressure.
Q3: Is clean compressed air important for laser cutting?
Yes. Oil and moisture may burn laser lenses and damage cutting heads. Dryers and precision filters are necessary.
Q4: What is the difference between integrated and split laser air compressors?
A 4-in-1 integrated unit includes compressor, tank, dryer and filter, making installation easy. Split type suits large workshops with separate layout.
Q5: How to calculate the required air flow for a laser cutter?
Calculate the peak air consumption of the laser machine, plus a 20% to 30% margin to compensate pipeline pressure loss.
Q6: Do I need an oil-free compressor for laser cutting?
A standard oil-lubricated model with high-grade filters works for most cases. A water-lubricated oil-free type is for ultra-high air purity requirements.
Q7: Can your laser cutting compressor run 24 hours continuously?
Yes. Our heavy-duty PM VSD compressors support round-the-clock continuous operation with low vibration and low noise.
