How To Achieve A Perfect Cut Condition On Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, and Aluminum | Fiber Laser

In this video, we summarize every tip and trick you need to achieve a perfect cut condition on a CBX fiber laser. You'll see us start off by cutting three different thicknesses of carbon steel with oxygen and then switching to nitrogen to cut through both stainless steel and aluminum. Along the way, we highlight the best practices when working with this laser and including the process of making adjustments and testing when creating a cut condition from scratch.
