Fiber lasers use much less energy than CO2 lasers. They operate at shorter wavelengths (780 nm to 2200 nm) and have a much higher absorption.
FM-Desktop can engrave on acrylic, plastics, brick, PVC, granite, marble, tile, aluminum, silver, steel, brass, and titanium.
Laser cutting machines are expensive at first. They can cost 2x more than a plasma cutter initially. A plasma machine cost starts somewhere around 40,000+ and a laser machine is about 80,000+. Off course this depends on where you buy your metal cutting machine and how powerful it would be. There are some plasma machines that are as low as 15,000 and laser machine as low as 50,000. But like I said, it all depends.
The unique flexibility of these 5- and 6-axis systems, combined with expanded teaching functions and Mitsubishi’s superior resonator technology, makes them extremely powerful tools. They significantly decrease the time and manpower required to produce complex parts and provide the greatest degree of accuracy and cost efficiency.
For advanced designing, you can use other CAD programs (like Photoshop, AutoCAD, CorelDRAW) and import files into EZCAD2.0 in JPG, DXF, PNG, PLT, PCX, DXF, and BMP file formats.
It comes with a motorized gate. It works when FSL Muse Pandora is installed on a desktop.
With plasma, you usually have to finish the cut with scraping or shaving because there’s leftover residue like dross.
A low cost fiber laser sheet metal cutter is priced from $16,000, while some high power sheet metal cutters cost up to $300,000+. A fiber laser tube cutter has a price range from $45,500 to $117,500 for all types of pipe cuts. An all-in-one fiber laser sheet metal and tube cutting machines is priced from $42,500 to $236,800. An automtic industrial 3D fiber laser cutting robot will cost from $49,000 to $83,500 for multi-dimensional & multi-angle metal cuts.
For more advanced design, you can use Photoshop, CorelDRAW or AutoCAD. You can also import files in DXF, DXF, PLT and BMP file formats.
Fiber lasers are solid-state lasers used widely in laser marking and engraving machines. The major difference between a fiber laser and a CO2 laser lies in their ability to laser cut sheet metal.
The closer the M2 value is to 1, the tighter the focus spot gets, the more laser energy is delivered at the laser spot. It helps process thicker materials with thin deep wells.

Laser machines using a fiber source laser use high precision field lens to increase the energy density of the laser beam and collimate it at one point.
A fiber laser shines when it comes to engraving. This laser can mark, etch, or engrave on metals with amazing speed.
What Materials Can Be Cut With A Fiber Laser? A fiber laser cutting machine can cut sheet metal such as carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, brass, aluminum, and titanium. Fiber lasers outperform CO2 lasers in cutting reflective materials.
Thin carbon fiber mat can be cut with some fraying - but not when coated. The laser can cut or etch. The laser can cut materials such as wood, paper, cork, and some plastics.
Marking and engraving are improved by high peak power and nanosecond pulses. The increased power and improved beam quality result in cleaner cut edges and faster cutting speeds. Fiber lasers are also used in material processing, telecommunications, spectroscopy, medicine, and directed energy weapons.
