What gas to laser galvanised steel?
(OP)
Hi all,
I am just wandering what gas is best to cut galv steel sheet? Oxygen is cheaper to cut with due to the lower pressure requried, but the cut quality doesn't seem to be as good on galv. I have been getting a very clean cut on 3mm galv steel using Nitrogen. Should i be able to use oxygen on galv or is it best to just use nitrogen?
Any advice given is much appreciated.
Best regards, SJClaser!

Can i ask why not oxygen? Ive tried it and got it cutting pritty clean! Does the oxidisation affect how well the galvanise protects the metal from rust?
Thanks,
