High-power laser cutting machine helps China's shipbuilding industry develop rapidly

In the first half of 2024, China's shipbuilding industry continued to maintain rapid development, with a completion volume of 25.02 million deadweight tons from January to June, an increase of 18.4% year-on-year; new orders of 54.22 million deadweight tons, a year-on-year increase of 43.9%; as of the end of June, the number of orders on hand was 171.55 million deadweight tons, a year-on-year increase of 38.6%. The three major indicators of my country's shipbuilding accounted for 55.0%, 74.7% and 58.9% of the global total in terms of deadweight tons.

As a group company specializing in the research, development, manufacturing and sales of laser cutting and welding equipment, Penta Laser insists on technological innovation and continuously breaks through technical barriers. Since 2018, it has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in three-dimensional laser cutting, welding, laser tube cutting machines, and large-format cutting machines, and has achieved remarkable results, and has achieved batch installation in the market. Especially in China's shipbuilding industry, Penta Laser has successfully provided ultra-high power laser cutting equipment, large-scale laser tube cutting equipment, laser arc hybrid welding equipment, laser cutting automatic production line and other products. In 2024, nearly 10 large shipbuilding companies in East China were provided with ultra-large-format, 20kw and above power laser cutting equipment with bevel function, which helped the rapid development of China's shipbuilding industry.

The Penta laser cutting machine can achieve high-precision cutting with a small error range, which is crucial for the strict assembly accuracy required in shipbuilding. High-precision cutting reduces the errors in subsequent processing and assembly, and improves the overall manufacturing quality.

Compared with traditional steel plate processing methods, laser cutting machines greatly shorten the production cycle and save costs, and can install coding, powder spraying and other devices on laser cutting equipment to further simplify the operation process, improve production efficiency and reduce labor costs. For example, the 20kW fiber laser cutting machine of Penta Laser can increase its cutting efficiency by 20%~90%, significantly improving production efficiency. It can handle steel plates of various thicknesses and materials, including medium and thick plates and large-sized metals.

Penta Laser's ultra-large-format laser cutting machine can be used to cut large-sized metals, realize various complex processes such as bevel cutting, and meet the diverse needs in shipbuilding. With the extensive application of high-power laser cutting machines in the shipbuilding industry, the shipbuilding industry is moving towards "precision shipbuilding" and "fast shipbuilding". Penta Laser will continue to forge ahead and provide stronger support for the transformation, upgrading and high-quality development of the shipbuilding industry.
