What is Waterjet/laser cutting of liner profiles?
Waterjet/laser cutting of liner profiles capability for titanium components
Laser processing capability for cutting of liner profiles, with precision beam delivery, gas assist systems, and process monitoring for repeatable quality.
Engineering Parameters & Capabilities
Fiber laser cutting of titanium uses a focused 1 µm wavelength beam to melt and expel material through a coaxial assist gas jet. The narrow (0.1–0.3 mm) kerf and small heat-affected zone make it suitable for precision profiles in sheet and thin-plate titanium components.
| Parameter | Primary Method | Alternative Method |
|---|---|---|
| Cut Speed (3 mm Ti) | Up to 6 m/min | 0.5–1.5 m/min |
| Kerf Width | 0.1–0.3 mm | 0.7–1.2 mm |
| HAZ | 0.05–0.15 mm with N₂ assist | Zero HAZ (cold cut) |
| Max Thickness | 15 mm (fiber laser) | 100 mm+ |
Engineering Capabilities & Limits
Laser processing capability for cutting of liner profiles, with precision beam delivery, gas assist systems, and process monitoring for repeatable quality.
Hole Types Supported
Heat Control Measures
Coaxial N₂ (99.999%) assist gas at 12–20 bar prevents titanium oxidation by displacing oxygen. Laser power modulation controls heat input to minimize the HAZ to 0.05–0.15 mm.
Flatness & Stress Relief
Thin-gauge titanium (< 2 mm) may release residual stress during cutting, causing distortion. Vacuum annealing stress relief at 540–650°C and roller leveling are available.
Tolerance
±0.05 mm (thin sheet < 3 mm) / ±0.1 mm (plate 3–12 mm)
Secondary Operations & Downstream Processing
