Snail Tools | MDH100 Series D1.8E Enhanced Double Layer Nozzle
The Snail Tools MDH100 Double Layer Laser Nozzle (D1.8E) is specifically engineered for North American fabricators utilizing high-power fiber laser systems (+) who specialize in bright surface cutting of carbon steel (up to ). The aperture with the ‘E’ specification signifies an enhanced internal conical geometry that dramatically improves the stability and velocity of the oxygen assist gas stream.
This Double Layer nozzle design is optimized for the oxidation cutting process, rapidly accelerating the gas through the inner core to effectively blow away molten material and slag. This results in faster cutting speeds and a superior edge finish on thick plate, while the outer layer provides critical cooling and protection for the laser head optics.
Key Features for North American Manufacturing Success:
-
Enhanced Gas Dynamics (E-Type): The specialized ‘E’ design is formulated to optimize the exothermic reaction and melt expulsion, enabling high-speed, bright-surface cutting of thick carbon steel.
-
Precision Aperture: Ideal for striking a balance between the high gas flow needed for thick metal removal and the focused stream required for edge precision.
-
High-Power Ready: Designed to withstand the intense thermal environment and high gas pressures associated with high-wattage fiber laser cutting systems.
-
Double Layer Protection: The dual-cone structure provides superior gas guidance and effectively shields internal optics from heat, plasma flash, and heavy spatter, maximizing component lifespan.
