Process improvement of three-dimensional five-axis laser in hot stamping forming application

2024-08-30

Three-dimensional five-axis laser cutting technology has been used in the field of automotive hot stamping for many years.

 In 2006, the three-dimensional five-axis laser cutting technology used in the field of automotive hot stamping was introduced to the Chinese market and has been developing continuously.

In the past 17 years, as the technology has become more and more mature, the cost of hot-formed stamping parts has been greatly reduced,

 and the proportion of hot stamping parts used in automobiles has also gradually increased.

Three-dimensional laser cutting has become an important part of the hot stamping process. 

Manufacturers of hot stamping parts have increasingly higher requirements for three-dimensional five-axis laser cutting equipment.

 The purchase cost and processing efficiency of the equipment are the two factors that customers are most concerned about.

Here we introduce the main components of three-dimensional laser cutting processing equipment, mainly: bed, laser fiber cable, laser light source, and cutting head.

(1) Bed: The main structure of the machining center and the support of the motion mechanism.

(2) Fiber cable: The transmission mechanism of the laser, used to transmit the laser generated by the light source to the laser cutting head

(3) Laser light source: The laser-generating device, usually a solid-state light source

The two-in-one fiber laser beam cutting technology has great potential for increasing production capacity and saving costs for hot stamping parts manufacturers using three-dimensional five-axis laser cutting, as follows:

(1) The two-in-one fiber laser cutting technology can increase the cutting speed by 30% when processing 2mm sheet materials. When processing 1mm sheet materials, the cutting speed can be increased by 50%.

(2) When processing sheets less than 2mm thick, the cutting speed of a 3kw two-in-one fiber laser is faster than that of a 4kw ordinary laser.

(3) When processing sheets with a thickness of 1.5mm, the cutting efficiency of a 3kw two-in-one fiber laser can be increased by 8%.

(4) The cutting process of a 3kw two-in-one fiber laser can save 50% of gas consumption compared to ordinary lasers.


As competition in the Chinese market intensifies, hot stamping customers are increasingly in need of reducing production costs. 

In the near future, the development of three-dimensional five-axis laser technology will focus on improving the cost and performance of equipment. 

At the same time, the use rate of hot stamping parts in automobiles will further increase.
