Diseño y construcción de una cortadora láser para trabajo en 2D

Abstract

In this project, the development of a prototype of a cutter for 2D work using a laser was proposed. In the development of this project, the design, variables, calculations, materials, alternatives and the operation of the prototype are explained, taking into account the objective of the machine which is laser cutting. The way to implement each electronic and mechanical component is very important for its correct operation. It should be noted that the prototype design was made for laser cutting in 2D jobs using a beam of light with a power of 40Watts. For the validation and verification of the laser cutter prototype, different types of tests were carried out according to the factors to be evaluated, such as travel speeds, precision, laser cutting and the correct operation of the G code to achieve the best results of the machine. Finally, the conclusions and suggestions generated in the development of the project are presented.
