Wire Cutting : Limited to conductive materials, requires cutting fluid, and cannot process materials such as paper or leather that are not conductive or sensitive to fluids.

2. Comparison of cutting thicknesses
Laser Cutting : Typically used for cutting carbon steel up to 20mm and stainless steel up to 16mm in industry, with a cutting capacity up to 40mm for carbon steel.

Water cutting : Can cut materials with thickness ranging from 0.8mm to 100mm or more.

Plasma cutting : Suitable for thicknesses up to 120 mm, with optimum quality around 20 mm.

Wire cutting : It generally handles thicknesses of 40 to 60 mm, with a maximum of 600 mm.

3. Comparison of cutting speeds
Laser cutting : A 1200W laser can cut 2mm thick low carbon steel at 600cm/min and 5mm thick polypropylene resin at 1200cm/min. The efficiency of wire EDM is generally between 20-60mm²/min, with a maximum of 300mm²/min. Laser cutting is faster, ideal for mass production.

Water cutting : Relatively slow, not suitable for large scale production.

Plasma cutting : Slow with lower accuracy, best for thick plates but with sloping edges.

Wire cutting : High precision for metals but slow speed, forex dataset often requiring pre-drilling or threading for cutting, with size limitations.

4. Comparison of cutting accuracy

Plasma cutting : Can achieve an accuracy of 1 mm.

Water cutting : No thermal deformation, accuracy of ±0.1mm, up to ±0.02mm with dynamic water cutting to eliminate bias.

Wire cutting : Accuracy is typically ±0.01 to ±0.02 mm, with a maximum accuracy of ±0.004 mm.

5. Comparison of cutting widths
Laser cutting : More precise than plasma cutting, with a cutting width of approximately 0.5 mm.

Plasma cutting : The cutting width is larger, around 1 to 2 mm.

Water cutting : The cutting width is about 10% larger than the nozzle diameter, generally 0.8 to 1.2 mm. The cutting width increases with the nozzle diameter.

Wire Cut : The narrowest cutting width, typically in the range of 0.1 to 0.2 mm.

6. Comparison of cutting surface quality
Laser cutting : The surface roughness is not as good as that of water cutting, and the roughness increases with the thickness of the material.

Water Cutting : Maintains the original properties of the material around the cut (unlike laser cutting, w
