Introduction
Steel Cutting is the foundational and initial step in container house production. It involves precisely cutting large steel plates or sections into the required components according to design blueprints.
Equipment
- CNC Plasma Cutting Machine: An automated machine that uses a high-velocity plasma arc to melt and cut metal. It enables intricate shapes and high-precision cuts.
- CNC Laser Cutting Machine: Utilizes a high-energy laser beam for cutting, offering even higher precision and narrower kerf, suitable for components demanding extreme accuracy.
- Shearing Machine: Used to cut steel plates into straight strips or blocks.
- Band Saw Machine: Employed for cutting steel sections (like H-beams, C-channels) and square/round tubes.
Materials
- Various Specifications of Steel Plates: Commonly Q235 or Q345 structural steel, with thickness determined by structural strength requirements.
- Steel Sections: Including square tubes, rectangular tubes, C-channels, H-beams, etc., used for various parts of the frame.
Operation
Workers or automated equipment place raw steel onto the cutting machine’s work table according to CAD designs. After setting cutting parameters, the machine proceeds with precise automated or manual cutting. Upon completion, the cut edges are initially cleaned and deburred.
High Precision Guarantee:
CNC cutting equipment ensures accurate dimensions, laying a solid foundation for subsequent frame fabrication and minimizing errors.
Increased Production Efficiency:
Automated cutting allows for rapid batch production, significantly shortening the production cycle and reducing labor costs.
High Material Utilization:
Optimized nesting software maximizes material usage by minimizing scrap, thus reducing raw material costs.
