Metal laser cutting machine is moving towards high power era

In 2015, 6000W fiber laser cutting machine was introduced. At that time, the application in the market was mainly based on medium power below 3000W. In just a few years, the power of fiber laser cutting machine jumped from 6000W and 8000W to 10kW and 12kW. And the era of 10,000-watt cutting has arrived.

With the advent of 10,000-watt laser cutting machines, the thickness of material cutting has been continuously broken, and the metal processing market with a thickness of 30 mm or more has been opened. It is foreseeable that with the introduction of 12kW and 15kW fiber laser cutting machines, the thickness limit of material cutting will continue to be broken.

The increase in power has brought revolutionary opportunities to the sheet metal processing industry. In addition to processing thicker materials, the processing efficiency of laser cutting machines has also made a qualitative leap. The data shows that when machining 8mm stainless steel, the 6000W laser cutting machine is up to 400% faster than the 3000W laser cutting machine, while the 12kW is 10% faster than the 10kW when processing 20mm stainless steel.

With its flexible processing range, powerful cutting capability and high processing efficiency, the 10,000-watt laser cutting machine has become the representative of the latest productivity in the field of laser cutting.
