Cutting Lubricant In laser cutting and machining, a cutting lubricant is a substance used to reduce friction, dissipate heat, and improve cutting efficiency and tool life during the cutting process. While traditional machining methods often use liquid or oil-based lubricants to lubricate cutting tools and reduce tool wear, laser cutting primarily relies on gas-assisted methods to evacuate material debris and prevent overheating.
However, certain laser cutting applications, particularly those involving high-power lasers or exotic materials, may benefit from the use of cutting lubricants to enhance cutting quality, minimize thermal distortion, and extend cutting tool lifespan. Cutting lubricants may include water-based solutions, synthetic oils, or specialized fluids formulated for specific cutting applications and material types. |
