Preface
The current socio-economic level is constantly improving, and the mechanical processing industry is developing rapidly. Laser cutting technology, as an important technology in mechanical processing, has achieved good application results, especially for the processing of hard metal materials. The use of laser cutting technology can significantly enhance the efficiency and quality of mechanical processing, and can also process complex material shapes. Laser cutting equipment also have a set of solutions for dealing with the headache of traditional cutting methods.

The reason why there is no slag hanging on the top and bottom of laser cutting
Laser cutting is the process of irradiating a material with a laser beam, heating the material locally and achieving the goal of melting or vaporization, forming a cutting seam. The reason why there is no slag hanging on the top and bottom of laser cutting is because the laser beam is carried out from top to bottom during the cutting process, so the cut slag and other residues will be sprayed below the cutting equipment instead of accumulating on the cutting part.

The reason for left and right slag hanging in laser cutting
The reason for the hanging slag in laser cutting is that the laser beam is carried out from left to right during the cutting process, so the cut slag and other residues will accumulate on the right side of the cutting piece, forming hanging slag. If these residues and residues are not cleaned up in a timely manner, they will have an impact on cutting quality and cutting speed.

How to solve the problem of left and right slag hanging in laser cutting

• 1. Optimize gas injection parameters. In the process of laser cutting, gas injection is a very important part. By optimizing parameters such as gas flow rate, injection angle, and injection distance, slag and residue can be removed in a timely manner to avoid the generation of slag.
• 2. Improve the placement of cutting parts. Reasonable placement of components can naturally eliminate slag and other residues, reducing the generation of slag.
• 3. Clean up slag and residues in a timely manner. During laser cutting, it is necessary to clean slag and other residues at all times to avoid their impact on cutting quality and speed.
• In short, the problem of left and right slag hanging in laser cutting can be solved by optimizing gas injection parameters, improving the placement of cutting parts, and timely cleaning of slag and residue. Meanwhile, a reasonable selection of laser cutting equipment and materials can also reduce the generation of slag, improve cutting quality and efficiency.

Epilogue
Laser cutting equipments can achieve non-contact cutting with the surface of workpieces, with small cutting gaps, high accuracy, and small heat affected zones. So when facing the risk of slag sticking, laser has an absolute advantage, which can achieve a smooth cutting section without burrs and water outlets.
