5 reasons to choose fiber laser machines for your business
Fiber laser machines for metal cutting deliver precision, speed and versatility. Here's why more and more companies in the metal sector choose them.
In Industry 4.0 there's a gap between those who keep up with new technologies and those who stick to traditional production systems. A fiber laser machine for metal cutting is easy to integrate into your processes and, over time, helps you amortize costs. Here are 5 reasons to choose one.
1. High performance of fiber laser machines
A fiber laser system for metal cutting delivers millimeter precision, hard to achieve with technologies like plasma. Control through CAD/CAM software lets you produce even the most complex geometries.
Unlike waterjet cutting, the fiber laser keeps its precision even on small, complex parts. The cut quality leaves smooth, clean edges, reducing later finishing. Add to that the cutting speed, which shortens production times. The power of Cutlite Penta systems reaches up to 30 kW.
2. Fewer consumables and simpler management
The fiber laser needs no water or abrasive materials, which the waterjet requires, and uses few consumables. This simplifies machine management and helps keep operating costs down.
3. Easy integration and small footprint
Before introducing a new technology, it matters to understand its impact on space, processes and the working environment. Fiber laser machines integrate well into the production cycle and are built for automation. They usually take up less space than a waterjet or plasma technology.
4. Versatility and competitiveness on the market
Cutting speed and precision let you produce more while keeping high quality. The versatility of fiber laser machines allows a high level of customization, suited to both large production runs and limited-edition batches.
The fiber laser works on many metals, including brass, aluminum, iron and stainless steel. So your company can adapt to new production needs without changing tools or technology.
5. Value and savings over the long term
On top of the benefits in efficiency, versatility and performance come lower consumption, which cuts operating costs. With no tool change, the laser also allows more effective use of labor. Cutting precision reduces scrap and material costs.
Cutlite Penta fiber laser machines: power and versatility
Cutlite Penta fiber laser systems combine high power and advanced cutting technology. The cutting head, designed and developed in-house, handles high power; systems reach up to 30 kW. With the bevel cutting head you can use high power in bevel cutting too, with great flexibility.
Versatility comes from technology developed in-house, including the numerical control and the Smart Manager Plus management software, plus the Evo 4 cutting head. All models feature linear motors, for greater compactness, efficiency and speed. Cutlite Penta systems also offer:
- High performance in quality, power and speed
- High cutting precision, with smooth, defined edges
- Custom configurations
- Metal cutting on large formats too
- 5-axis systems for 3D laser cutting
- Dedicated support on every machine
