What are the characteristics of fiber laser cutting machine?
1. The electro-optic conversion efficiency of fiber laser metal cutting machine is high, and the conversion efficiency is more than 30%. Low power fiber lasers do not require cooling chiller. The air cooling system on the fiber laser cutting system can greatly save the power consumption during operation of the fiber laser metal cutting machine, and it will save the operation cost and achieve the highest production efficiency.
2. When the fiber laser works, it only needs the lowest maintenance cost, and no need the additional gas to the laser, so the fiber laser metal cutting machine will be with low cost for the operation and the maintenance.
3. The fiber laser metal cutting machine adopts semiconductor modular and redundant design. There is no optical lens in the resonant cavity, so the fiber laser metal cutting machine no need the no start-up time, no adjustment, maintenance and high stability. It reduces accessory costs and maintenance time.
4. The output wavelength of fiber laser metal cutting machine is 1.064 μ m, which is only 1 / 10 of CO2 wavelength. The output beam has and high power density and good laser beam quality. So it is very conducive to the absorption of metal materials.
5. The optical transmission of the whole fiber laser metal cutting machine adopts optical fiber, which does not need complex light guide systems such as mirrors. The optical path is simple, the structure is stable, and the external optical path is maintenance free.
6. The cutting head contains protective lenses, so that the consumption of expensive consumables such as focusing lenses is very small.
7. Light is output through optical fiber, which makes the design of mechanical system of the fiber laser metal cutting machine very simple and easy to integrate with robot or multi-dimensional working table.
8. After the laser is equipped with a shutter, multiple machines can work simultaneously through optical fiber shunting and multi-channel. The function expansion is convenient and the upgrade is convenient and simple.
9. The optical metal laser cutter has the advantages of small volume, light weight, movable working position and small floor area.

CO2 Laser Cutting Machine Function
Our industrial CO2 laser cutters are manufactured with two major units. One unit is for controlling which the energy source is located and the other is for laser-shooting. The Co2 laser medium is protected by sealed glass. The laser medium will produce a laser beam that will travel into the laser head with the assistance of reflective mirrors and a focusing lens.
The depth of the cutting produced by the machine will depend on the amplification lens and photon density. Our CO2 laser cutting machines are manufactured with higher and stabler frequency to assure high performance.
What are the Advantages of a CO2 Laser Machine?

5.Low cost: it has low maintenance costs and only needs inexpensive replacement parts. Especially for small batch processing services, laser processing is cheaper.
Fiber laser cutter VS CO2 laser cutting machine
CO2 laser cutting machine is also a commonly used laser cutting machine for industrial purposes. But in actual use, there are big differences between a CO2 laser cutting machine and sheet metal laser cutting equipment. The differences mainly include the following aspects.
1. Laser generator The CO2 laser generator is a kind of gas molecular laser. It uses CO2 gas as the medium and transmits the laser beam through reflective lenses. However, fiber laser cutting machines work with diodes and fiber optic cables for beam transmission. The reflective lenses in the CO2 laser technology have to act at a certain distance. While the CNC fiber laser is not subject to such limitations.
2. Electro-optical conversion rate Fiber laser cutting system is the latest laser technology. Its solid-state laser generator is more efficient than a CO2 laser. The electro-optical conversion rate of a CO2 laser cutter is only 8%-10%. However, that rate of a fiber laser cutter can be as high as 30%. In other words, the overall energy consumption of a metal laser cutting machine is 3-5 times lower than that of a CO2 laser cutter. So the fiber laser machine is more energy-efficient.
3. Cutting ability Fiber laser has the property of short wavelength, thus improving the absorption of the beam by the cutting material. The fiber laser beam is more suitable for transmission in the fine and soft fiber. So it is more flexible and easier to maintain than the CO2 laser transmission with mirror reflection. A 3KW fiber laser cutting machine is equivalent to a 4-5KW CO2 laser cutting machine in terms of cutting capacity and speed. So the metal laser cutter can greatly reduce operating costs.
4. Maintenance cost As a CO2 laser cutter has a complex laser structure, its subsequent maintenance cost is relatively high. The CO2 laser cutting system requires regular cleaning, and the reflective lenses also require frequent cleaning and calibration. Due to the CO2 gas purity, you need to maintain the resonant cavity regularly. However, a CNC metal laser cutter doesn’t require the above maintenance, saving a large amount of cost.
5. Application Fiber laser cutting machine is mainly for metal cutting, such as mild or carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum and its alloys, brass, copper, titanium, etc. While the Co2 CNC laser cutting machine is good at cutting non-metallic materials. It is now a solution to cut or engrave acrylic, wood, MDF, glass, etc.
