High-Power Laser Cutting Machines Propel China's Shipbuilding Industry Forward

In the first half of 2024, China's shipbuilding industry has demonstrated notable growth, achieving a completion volume of 25.02 million deadweight tons, marking a year-on-year increase of 18.4%. New orders surged by 43.9%, totaling 54.22 million deadweight tons. By June's end, the order backlog stood at 171.55 million deadweight tons, up 38.6% from the previous year.

Penta Laser specializes in laser cutting and welding equipment, focusing on technological innovation. Since 2018, we have made significant investments in three-dimensional laser cutting, welding, and large-format cutting technologies. Our efforts have led to the successful deployment of ultra-high-power laser cutting machines and large-scale laser tube cutting equipment in the shipbuilding sector.

In 2024 alone, nearly 10 major shipbuilding companies in East China have integrated our advanced cutting equipment, featuring bevel capabilities and power ratings of 20 kW and above. This focus on precision is crucial in shipbuilding, where every detail counts. Our high-precision cutting minimizes errors in assembly, enhancing overall manufacturing quality.

Why Choose Laser Cutting?

The advantages of laser cutting over traditional steel plate processing methods include:

• Efficiency: Our 20 kW fiber laser cutting machine can boost cutting efficiency by 20% to 90%, significantly reducing production cycles.
• Cost-Effectiveness: By streamlining operations and incorporating features like coding and powder spraying directly onto the laser cutting machines, we simplify processes and reduce labor costs.
• Versatility: Our machines can handle various thicknesses and materials, excelling in cutting medium and thick plates as well as large metals.

Moreover, our ultra-large-format machines facilitate complex processes such as bevel cutting, catering to the diverse demands of shipbuilding. This adaptability supports the industry's move toward "precision shipbuilding" and "fast shipbuilding."

As the shipbuilding sector evolves, the integration of high-power laser cutting technology represents a significant advancement, promising improved efficiency, lower costs, and enhanced quality. We at Penta Laser are dedicated to supporting the shipbuilding industry's modernization and high-quality development.

With ongoing advancements in laser technology, the future of China's shipbuilding industry looks promising, and we are committed to providing the necessary tools and innovations for the next generation of shipbuilders.
