FROM OUR CAMERA
An actual result from our visit.
This is the 3BA logo cut during our MetalFab visit. It gives the demonstration a concrete result to inspect. Discuss the material, edge finish and full machine configuration you need rather than comparing laser wattage alone.

BUYER QUESTIONS
Choose around your application.
Are the 800 W and 1200 W setups interchangeable?
They are distinct configurations with different input requirements, dimensions, cable lengths and feeder arrangements. Confirm the exact machine and accessories in your quotation.
How much space should I plan for?
The CNC body is listed at 1175 × 1157 × 749 mm. Plan separately for the laser unit, feeder, cables, access and the installation requirements. The stated riser configuration changes the overall height.
Do the maximum thickness figures describe the cleanest edge?
No. The manufacturer distinguishes dross-free and maximum cutting thickness. Maximum figures may involve dross and depend on the specified material and operating conditions.
What should I include in a machine enquiry?
Tell us the material, thickness, part size, cutting or welding tasks, installation location and electrical supply you want to discuss. The team will confirm the suitable configuration and current commercial details.
