The LX3015FC-1500W is a fiber laser cutter with a working area approximately 3000 x 1500 mm and a 1500 W fiber laser source. It includes a CNC motion system, laser head with autofocus, operator control pendant/software, cooling unit requirement, and typical safety features such as protective enclosures and interlocks. Exact specs (bed size, overall footprint, electrical requirements) can vary by configuration.
It can cut a wide range of metals including mild/carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass and copper. Non-metallic materials are generally not suitable for fiber lasers. Cutting performance varies by material, thickness and assist gas.
Typical (approximate) practical ranges: mild/carbon steel 0.5–20 mm (with oxygen assist up to ~25 mm in some cases); stainless steel 0.5–12 mm; aluminum 0.5–8 mm; copper/brass 0.5–6 mm. Actual maximum thickness and edge quality depend on material grade, gas type/pressure, nozzle, and cutting parameters.
Cutting speed depends strongly on material and thickness. For thin sheet (≤1–3 mm) speeds can be very high (tens of meters per minute); for mid thicknesses (3–10 mm) speeds drop significantly. Typical top travel speeds for thin materials may be in the 20–30 m/min range, but expect much lower effective cutting speeds for thicker plates.
Fiber lasers provide high precision. Typical positioning accuracy for machines of this class is around ±0.03 mm with repeatability around ±0.02 mm, though real-world precision depends on machine calibration, temperature stabilization, and tooling.
The machine uses a 1500 W fiber laser source (supplier/brand varies by configuration). Modern fiber laser modules typically offer tens of thousands of hours of service (often 50,000–100,000 hours) before significant power decline, depending on operating conditions and supplier warranties.
Required auxiliaries include a chiller/water-cooling unit for the laser source, compressed assist gases (commonly oxygen, nitrogen, or air depending on material), and a fume/dust extraction system to remove smoke and particulates during cutting. Proper ventilation and filtration are essential for safety and part quality.
The LX3015FC-1500W is compatible with common laser/CNC control software (examples include CypCut, proprietary systems or similar CAD/CAM interfaces) and accepts standard vector file formats such as DXF, DWG, and sometimes DST or PLT. Post-processing/nesting software may be used for production efficiency.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning/changing protective lenses and windows, replacing nozzles and nozzle tips, checking and replacing filters in extraction systems, inspecting and lubricating rails and bearings, and monitoring laser source cooling and water quality. Consumables: nozzles, protective lenses/windows, filters, and occasional gas usage.
Yes — standard safety measures include full or partial protective enclosures, interlock switches on doors, emergency stop buttons, laser-safe windows, key switches, and proper grounding. Operators should also use appropriate PPE and ensure exhaust and fire suppression protocols are in place.
Total power consumption depends on configuration and peripherals (chiller, exhaust, controller). Typical installed power for a 1500 W fiber laser system is in the range of about 8–12 kW during operation, but exact requirements should be confirmed from the supplier and electrical load calculations provided before installation.
Allow space for the machine footprint (approximate working area plus service access — often ~3.5 x 2.5 m or larger), room for the chiller and extraction unit, clearance for loading/unloading materials, and safe operator walkways. Site prep includes stable level flooring, adequate power supply, compressed air, ventilation/extraction points, and proper grounding. Supplier/site survey will provide exact requirements.
Warranty terms vary by supplier. Typical packages include a 12-month machine warranty and specific coverage for the laser source depending on the source manufacturer (sometimes longer). Suppliers commonly offer installation, operator training, spare parts kits, and paid maintenance/service contracts or remote technical support. Confirm details with the seller.
Yes — common options include automatic pallet changers, exchangeable tables, automated nozzle changers, high-pressure nitrogen systems for improved stainless/aluminum cutting, fume extraction units, material loading/unloading automation, CCTV/monitoring, and specialized laser heads for thicker materials. Ask the supplier about available upgrades.
Fiber lasers are generally more energy-efficient and have lower maintenance (no gas-filled mirrors) compared with CO2 lasers, often resulting in lower running costs. Major running costs include electricity, assist gases, consumables (nozzles, lenses), and periodic parts/service. Exact hourly costs depend on usage profile and local utility/gas prices.
