Fiber versus CO2 Lasers: The Basic Differences – Axis Fabrication

09 Sep.,2023

 

Advantages

The advantages to fiber lasers are plentiful. There are no moving parts or mirrors in a fiber laser which means nothing must be aligned. This results in a lower overall maintenance cost. The insensitivity of the machine leads to lower operating and maintenance cost. Fiber lasers have excellent electrical efficiency when compared to CO2 lasers. This makes them more efficient than CO2 with the added benefits of lower running costs along with being environmentally friendly. Fiber lasers also have an advantage with regard to cutting thin materials. They are close to three times faster at cutting on stainless steel with a 1 mm thickness than CO2 lasers. Finally, fiber lasers have the ability to cut reflective materials such as copper, brass, and aluminum.
