Apparatus for cutting material and system for cutting material

1. An apparatus for cutting a material comprising:

a frame body installed on a conveying path of a material;

a cutting means mounted on the frame body and configured to cut an end portion of the material being conveyed;

a laser preheating means configured to preheat the material by irradiating a laser beam onto the material before the material is conveyed to the cutting means; and

a blocking and reflection means, spaced from the laser preheating means, installed in front of a front surface of the cutting means and configured to block the laser beam reflected to the cutting means and to re-reflect the laser beam to the material.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the blocking and reflection means re-reflects the laser beam reflected from the material to the material by a combination of at least two or more block reflecting plates having different angles of inclination with respect to a surface of the material.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the blocking and reflection means comprises a first block reflecting plate installed to have a first inclination angle with respect to the surface of the material and a second block reflecting plate connected to the first block reflecting plate and having a second inclination angle relatively smaller than the first inclination angle.

4. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the first block reflecting plate comprises a curved first reflecting surface having a first radius of curvature, and the second block reflecting plate is connected to the first block reflecting plate, and comprises a curved second reflecting surface having a second radius of curvature relatively larger than that of the first block reflecting plate.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the blocking and reflection means re-reflects the laser beam reflected from the material to the material by a combination of at least two or more block reflecting plate members having different radii of curvature.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a cooling means provided between the blocking and reflection means and the cutting means, provided to block heat transfer in a direction of the cutting means, including a cooling line through which a cooling medium flows.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the blocking and reflection means is configured to be rotated such that a reflection direction of the laser beam reflected from the material is adjusted.

8. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the cutting means comprises an upper cutting wheel installed on the frame body and cutting a material while being in contact with the upper surface of the material; and

a lower cutting wheel installed on the frame body and cutting a material together with the upper cutting wheel while being in contact with the lower surface of the material, and

the laser preheating means comprises an upper preheating means installed on the frame body and irradiating the laser beam onto the upper surface of the material to preheat the material before reaching the upper cutting wheel; and

a lower preheating means installed on the frame body and irradiating the laser beam onto the lower surface of the material to preheat the material before reaching the lower cutting wheel.

9. The apparatus claim 8 , wherein the laser preheating means comprises a preheating head mounted on the frame body and irradiating the laser beam onto the material; and

a laser oscillator supplying the laser beam to the preheating head, and

wherein a preheating position of the material is configured to be adjusted by rotating the preheating head while mounted on the frame body.

10. A system for cutting a material, wherein a pair of apparatuses for cutting a material according to claim 1 are disposed with a material therebetween, and are configured to simultaneously cut both edge portions of the material in the width direction of the material.
