THE GOVERNMENT HAVING SET A GROWTH target for manufacturing to reach 25% of GDP by 2025 and looking for precision manufacturing, advanced forming, automation, nanomaterial and surface engineering among others to provide the thrust, businesses in laser applications are looking forward to opening of new opportunities.
PRECISION MANUFACTURING
When it comes to quality clean edges and superior products, laser cutting has a clear advantage in the precision manufacturing industry. Accuracy is the key aspect of laser cutting that stands way ahead in comparison to the conventional methods.
Amenable for use on a variety of metals and granting advantage of flexibility, precision, repeatability, speed, cost-effectiveness and high-quality contactless cutting, laser cutting is the preferred process in the industry, more so because of its automation possibilities. In particular, laser puts processes such as plasma or flame cutting way behind in terms of speed.
“Laser cutting of mid-thick material up to 25mm, has many advantages when compared with conventional cutting methods. Apart from higher productivity, we can achieve less taper across thickness which eliminates secondary machining process,” says Niraj Seth, President, Amanda India, a company with 70 years in the development of metalworking machinery behind it.
