Frequently Asked Questions
Fiber laser cutting is a metal fabrication process that uses a high-powered fiber laser beam to cut through materials with extreme precision. It is commonly used for cutting metals like stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and copper.
A fiber laser generates a concentrated beam of light that is delivered through optical fibers and focused onto a material. The heat from the laser melts or vaporizes the material, while assist gases (such as nitrogen or oxygen) help remove molten metal from the cut.
Fiber lasers are ideal for cutting stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, brass, copper, titanium, and galvanized steel.
Fiber laser cutting offers precision up to ±0.001 inches (0.025 mm), making it one of the most accurate cutting technologies available.
Up to 1" (25mm) mild steel, 3/4" (19mm) stainless steel
