CHARACTERISTICS OF MATERIAL IN ZONE OF CUT BY LASER CUTTING.

The laser cutting is a cost effective technology. This process is based on melting and evaporating material in very small, a well-defined area and a blownout of the cut by the assist gas. Laser cutting processes make heat action fully effective, affecting a work piece material due to the laser beam. Laser cutting is a high-temperature process, which characterizes the small heat affected zone. The paper gives a part of experimental investigations of laser cutting process, which analyses the cut quality by laser cutting. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
