What is a CNC fibre laser machine?
Dedicated metal cutting, powered by fibre
Fibre laser machines, also known simply as fibre lasers, are dedicated metal cutting machines typically used to cut mild and stainless steel as well as other non-ferrous metals. They are powered by fibre-optic laser sources of 500W and above, and can be configured to cut very thick metals.
Because the beam is generated and delivered through solid-state fibre, these machines cut faster, run more efficiently and need far less maintenance than the CO2 systems they have replaced across most of the industry. That combination of accuracy, speed and low running cost is why fibre has become the standard choice for modern fabrication.

Capacity & speed
What can a fibre laser cut, and how fast?
Capability rises with laser power. The figures below are indicative starting points to size your machine, and are always confirmed against the chosen machine and a sample cut in your own material.
| Material | 2kW | 6kW | 12kW+ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mild steel | up to ~12 mm | up to ~20 mm | up to ~30–40 mm |
| Stainless steel | up to ~6 mm | up to ~12 mm | up to ~30 mm |
| Aluminium | up to ~4 mm | up to ~10 mm | up to ~25 mm |
| Brass / copper | thin sheet | medium sheet | thicker reflective plate |
| Thickness | Indicative speed | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| 1 mm | very high throughput | Thin sheet production |
| 3 mm | fast | General fabrication |
| 6 mm | moderate | Brackets, plate work |
| 10 mm | steady | Structural, heavier plate |
| 20 mm+ | oxygen assist | Thick plate |
Indicative only. On the ACCURL MasterLine, high-power sources and a highly dynamic servo drive support cutting speeds up to 180 m/min on thin material. We confirm real capability with a sample cut in your own material.

How it works
How fibre laser cutting works
A fibre laser focuses a high-powered beam through a fibre-optic cable to a compact cutting head, which melts and vaporises metal along a precise path. An assist gas clears the molten material from the cut, leaving a clean edge.
With no mirrors to align and no laser gas to replace, fibre systems cut faster, draw far less power and need far less maintenance than CO2 machines. The right assist gas is chosen to balance speed, edge quality and running cost.

FAQs
What is a fibre laser machine?
What materials can a fibre laser cut?
Fibre lasers handle a wide range of metals, including stainless steel, mild steel, aluminium, brass, copper and specialist alloys. They are ideal for workshops that need versatility without compromising cut quality.
How powerful should my fibre laser be?
Power depends on your workload. Lower power systems suit light fabrication, while higher power machines cut thicker materials faster and support higher production volumes. Choosing the right power level ensures maximum return on investment.
What gases do fibre lasers use?
Most applications use nitrogen, oxygen or compressed air. Each gas affects speed, edge quality and running cost, so selecting the right setup helps you optimise performance and efficiency.
How much maintenance is required?
Fibre lasers are designed for minimal upkeep. Routine cleaning and consumable checks keep the machine running smoothly, and the laser source itself typically lasts many years with no major servicing.
Which industries use fibre laser machines?
They are widely used in metal fabrication, engineering, automotive, aerospace, signage and precision manufacturing. Any business needing fast, accurate metal cutting can benefit.
Do Axe & Status provide laser cutter installation and support?
Yes. Axe & Status offer full installation, operator training and ongoing technical support to ensure your machine delivers maximum performance from day one.
