Many users want to know how to set the cutting speed parameters when using a laser cutting machine to cut different metal materials and want a laser cutting speed chart to help determine the most appropriate cutting speed.
For the convenience of users with the above needs, we have compiled the following cutting speed tables for 750W-6000W Raycus laser sources, hoping to help you.
Remarks:
1. Blue color means simple sharp or low requirement can be cut in a short scale, it’s a little bit difficult
2. Red color means the sample cutting is ok, but can not be used for batch cutting

This your explanation is fhe first good explanation which I find on internet. I just think that the air must be clean from dust oil and water before cutting.
