Fiber laser’s advantage aspects comparing with CO2 laser

There are many aspects of operating a CO2 laser that do not exist with operating a Fiber laser.

  • A high power fiber laser is capable of cutting up to 5 times faster than a conventional CO2 laser and utilizes half the operating costs.
  • For example, the Fiber laser does not need any warm-up time — typically about 10 minutes per start-up for a CO2 laser.
  • The Fiber laser has no beam path maintenance such as mirror or lens cleaning, bellows checks and beam alignments. This can consume another 4 or 5 hours per week for a CO2 laser.
  • Fiber lasers have a fully sealed fiber optic beam path both at the power source and at the Fiber delivery to the cutting head. The beam is not subjected to beam path contaminates as is the case with CO2 lasers.

Because the integrity of the Fiber beam remains consistent from day to day, so do the cutting parameters, requiring far less adjustments than a CO2 laser.
