Benefits of Fiber Laser Engraving

You can expect the following benefits from fiber laser engraving:

• It creates high contrast and permanent marks.

• Unlike mechanical engraving, the laser beam replaces the router bit as the tool; it’s a non-contact process; therefore, laser engraving doesn’t destroy the material structure or affect its integrity.

• Wide range of applications: it engraves both meal and non-metal materials.

• High speed: fiber laser can mark at a rate of up to 7,000mm/sec.

• The equipment is maintenance-free, the laser has a long life, and the machine usage cost is extremely low.

• Broad compatibility: the machine can run on almost any computer based on the Windows system.

• Novices/newbies can easily operate the laser machine through simple self-study.

FAQs about the Fiber Laser Engraving Machine for Metal

Q: What Materials Can a Fiber Laser Engrave?

A: Fiber laser can engrave almost all metal and non-metal materials, including but not limited to stainless steel, aluminum, platinum, coated metal, tungsten, silver, gold, copper, titanium, carbide, nickel, acrylic, polymer, leather, silicon, stone, rubber, wood, glass, plastic, fiberglass, paper, ceramic, PVC, ABS, PS, PBT, carbon fiber, etc.

Q: Can A Fiber Laser Engrave Glass?

A: Yes, it can engrave glass. However, a UV laser engraver is the best tool for this application. When engraving glass products using a fiber laser, there is a risk of cracks. 

Q: Can A Fiber Laser Engrave Wood?

A: Yes, it can engrave wood.

Q: What Can a Fiber Laser Engrave?

A: It can engrave letters, numbers, text, bar codes, QR codes, graphic patterns, and more.

Q: How Much Does a Fiber Laser Cost?

A: If you are in the market for a fibre laser engraver, the first thing you must figure out is its pricing. There is no doubt that the laser source/generator is the primary factor causing the price difference of this type of equipment. The pricing range could be from USD 2,800 to USD 22,000 in different configurations. Let’s take a few standard models as examples to take a closer look at their price levels. A 20W fiber laser marking machine is typically under 3K; the average pricing for a 50W fiber laser would cost approx. USD 3,600. A high-power laser like 100W probably ranges from USD 19,500 to USD 22,500. Coming to MOPA laser engravers, their price range would be from USD 5,000 to USD 6,600. The cost for a 3D laser engraving system ranges from USD 8,000 to USD 22,000. There are so many that we can’t list them all here. If you are interested in a specific model or configuration, please get in touch with us for a free proposal.

Q: Do You Know How Small Of Letters You Are Able To Engrave With This Laser Machine?

A: The minimum line width that this machine can engrave is 0.01mm; when it comes to letters, it can easily handle tiny letters, such as the ones with heights of 1mm and 0.5mm. Here is a live demo for your review.

Q: Which Is Better CO2 Laser Or Fiber Laser Engraving?

A: Well, it depends. Fiber laser should be the best and perfect tool for engraving on metals, features with high precision, high speed, high contrast, permanent marks, small heat-affected zone, maintenance-free, low operating cost, easy operation, and more. In addition, it can do marking on non-metal materials. However, fiber lasers don't perform as well as CO2 lasers for non-metal marking, not to mention their smaller engraving range, likely 300x300mm at most. The CO2 laser can achieve some larger format engravings. In conclusion, the fiber laser is better suited for marking metallic materials but can also handle small non-metal marking tasks. CO2 lasers are better suited for non-metal marking and cannot mark metals.

Q: How Long Do Fiber Laser Engravers Last?

A: This mainly depends on the heart of the machine - the laser source. EagleTec CNC adopts the best fiber laser in China whose lifespan is more than 100,000 hours.

Q: Can A Fiber Laser Engrave in Color?

A: You can do color engraving with MOPA laser sources.
