How Much Does a Laser Cutter Cost?

Laser cutting equipment can provide your business with a fast and efficient way to cut, etch, and engrave items. Cutting and engraving projects with a laser machine are more precise and cleaner than most other cutting technologies, and require less deburring or finishing after cutting. The price and cost of a laser cutter fluctuates greatly depending on the design, type, and capabilities of the laser. On the other hand, the more powerful and sophisticated the laser, the higher the cost. Balancing price and practicality is your choice.

Cutting thick or hard materials with an underpowered laser can damage the surface and require expensive material replacement. Most laser cutter suppliers sell versions in a variety of sizes. Cutting larger objects requires expensive, larger machines. Purchasing a high-wattage laser cutter is cost-effective for prolific cutters. If you don't know what you plan to cut, or are looking to cut a wide variety of materials, a top-of-the-line wattage laser is the best choice. This type of laser is powerful enough to cut and engrave almost anything, giving you the flexibility you need.

Price Difference Between CO2 and Fiber Lasers

You may be wondering about the cost difference between CO2 laser machines and fiber lasers. Laser cutting with fiber lasers is more energy-efficient and accurate, but more economical for the luxury industry. Fiber lasers can make more precise cuts and last longer than more traditional CO2 lasers. But on the other hand, fiber lasers tend to be more expensive than traditional lasers. The price of fiber lasers is usually between $20,000 and $45,000. However, which laser machine you choose should be based on your processing needs. SUNNA can provide you with a variety of co2 laser machines and fiber laser cutting machines. We adhere to the concept of professionalism, high quality and continuous innovation to provide customers with excellent machines.
