|---|---|
Available in a comprehensive orifice size range from 1.7mm to 7mm, they are specifically designed for Precitec ProCutter and AutoCutter laser heads, ensuring seamless integration with popular models like the Precitec EcoCut series. The unique internal geometry minimizes turbulence, delivering a focused gas jet that enhances cut quality while reducing dross formation in metal processing applications .
Superior Wear Resistance: The 70 HRC chromium plating provides exceptional resistance to molten metal splatter and abrasive gas flow, extending service life by up to 40% compared to standard brass nozzles .
Precision Orifice Engineering: Each nozzle’s orifice is machined to tight tolerances of ±0.01mm, ensuring consistent gas pressure distribution across the cutting zone for uniform edge quality.
Broad Size Compatibility: With orifice options from 1.7mm (fine precision) to 7mm (high-volume gas flow), the series accommodates diverse materials from thin foils to 15mm thick stainless steel .
Standardized Mounting: Features M16×1.5 threading with a precision locating shoulder, enabling tool-free replacement in under 2 minutes to minimize downtime.
These nozzles excel in precision-critical industries requiring consistent gas delivery:
Automotive Body Manufacturing: Ideal for cutting 3–8mm mild steel with oxygen assist gas, producing clean edges for welding preparation.
Medical Device Fabrication: The 1.7mm orifice variant ensures precise cutting of thin stainless steel sheets used in surgical instrument components.
Aerospace Alloy Processing: Compatible with nitrogen gas to prevent oxidation when cutting aluminum alloys up to 12mm thick.
Heavy Equipment Production: The 7mm orifice model supports high-speed cutting of 10–15mm carbon steel with minimal dross formation.
Q: What orifice size is recommended for aluminum cutting?
A: For aluminum up to 6mm, use a 3mm orifice with nitrogen gas; for thicker materials (6–12mm), select a 5mm orifice to enhance molten material removal.
Q: How often should these nozzles be replaced?
A: Under normal conditions (8-hour shifts), replace every 50–100 hours depending on material. Cutting abrasive materials like cast iron may require replacement every 30–40 hours .
Q: Are they compatible with non-Precitec laser heads?
A: While optimized for Precitec systems, they fit most standard laser heads with M16×1.5 threading, including select models from Raytools and WSX.
Q: Can they be used with oxygen-rich assist gases?
A: Yes, the chromium plating is resistant to oxidation, making them suitable for oxygen, nitrogen, and compressed air applications. Avoid corrosive gases like chlorine.
