Glossary Of Laser Engraving and Cut Terms
[1] |
Kilowatt Kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power measurement equal to one thousand watts. It is commonly used to quantify the rate at which energy is transferred, converted, or consumed in electrical, mechanical, thermal, and optical systems. Kilowatts are used to express the power output of devices such as electric motors, generators, heaters, air conditioners, lasers, and other electrical appliances. In the context of laser systems, kilowatts are often used to specify the power output of high-power lasers used in industrial cutting, welding, and materials processing applications.
Higher kilowatt ratings indicate greater power output and energy density, which can result in faster processing speeds, deeper penetration, and increased productivity in laser-based manufacturing and fabrication processes. Kilowatts are also used to calculate energy consumption, electricity costs, and power requirements for various equipment and systems in commercial, industrial, and residential settings. |
