Development trend of the laser machine market
Ever since the power of commercial laser had the breakthrough in 2016, it has been increasing every 4 years. In addition, the price of the laser with the same power has reduced a lot, leading to the reducing price of the laser machine. That causes the fierce competition in the laser industry. In this circumstance, many factories which have processing needs purchased lots of laser equipment, which helps promote the laser market need in the past few years.
Looking back the development of the laser market, there are several factors that promote the increasing need of the laser machine. First of all, laser technique continues to take up the market share which used to be taken up by CNC machine and punching machine. Secondly, some users originally used CO2 laser cutting machines and they have been using those machines for more than 10 years, which means those machines might be near its lifespan. And now they see some new laser machines with cheaper price, they would like to replace the old CO2 laser cutters. Thirdly, the pattern of metal processing field has changed. In the past, many enterprises would outsource the metal processing job to other service providers. But now, they prefer to purchase the laser processing machine to do the processing by themselves.
Many manufacturers promote their own 10kw+ fiber laser machinesIn this gold age of the laser market, more and more enterprises join the fierce competition. Every enterprise would do their best to take up bigger market share and invest more to promote new products. One of the new products is the high power fiber laser machine.
HANS Laser is the manufacturer which launches the 10kw+ fiber laser machines the earliest and now they have launched 15KW fiber laser. Later Penta Laser promoted 20KW fiber laser cutting machine, DNE launched D-SOAR PLUS ultrahigh power fiber laser cuter and many more.
The advantage of the increasing powerConsidering the fact that the fiber laser power increases by 10KW every year in the past 3 years, many people doubt that if the laser power continues to grow or not. Well, that is for sure, but in the end, we have to look at the need of the end users.
With the increasing power, the fiber laser machine has wider application and increasing processing efficiency. For example, using 12KW fiber laser machine to cut the same materials is twice faster than using 6KW one.
S&A Teyu launched 20KW laser cooling systemAs the needs of laser machine increases, its components like laser source, optics, laser cooling device and processing heads are also having more demands. However, as the the power of the laser source increased, some of the components are still hard to match those high power laser sources.
For such high power laser, the heat it generates would be huge, posting higher cooling requirement for the laser cooling solution provider. That is because laser cooling device is closely relate to the normal working of the laser machine. Last year, S&A Teyu launched a high power industrial process chiller CWFL-20000 which can cool down fiber laser machine up to 20KW, which is sector leading in domestic laser market. This process cooling chiller has two water circuits which are capable of cooling the fiber laser source and the laser head at the same time.
