High-Precision Laser Metal Cutting Machine for Industrial Use

The price of a laser metal cutting machine varies widely based on laser type, power, working area, and brand. Fiber laser machines, though more expensive than CO2 models, offer higher efficiency and lower maintenance. A 1kW fiber laser machine for thin metals (0.1mm–5mm) starts at $30,000, while a 6kW model for thick metals (5mm–50mm) can cost $150,000 or more. Working area size significantly impacts cost: a standard 1530 model (1.5m x 3m) is more affordable than a 3060 model (3m x 6m). Automation features like auto-loading, robotic arms, and vision systems add 20%–50% to the base price. Premium brands command 30%–50% higher prices than Chinese manufacturers due to brand reputation and global service networks. Additional costs include shipping, installation, and operator training. Buyers should consider their material needs, production volume, and long-term cost of ownership to select the right machine within their budget.
