A fibre laser cutting investment is not just watts. Real productivity depends on sheet size, nesting, assist gas, cutting head spares, extraction, operator workflow and local service response.
Typical applications
Machine selection
Start from material mix and monthly hours, then choose power and table. A lower-power machine with correct gas and service can outperform a poorly specified high-power machine.
Sheet size
1530, 2040 and 2560 tables cover different stock and loading patterns.
Assist gas
Nitrogen, oxygen and compressed air change speed, edge quality and cost per metre.
Cutting head uptime
Keep lenses, nozzles and ceramics in stock; small parts stop expensive machines.
