Fiber lasers are much more powerful than traditional CO\u2082\u00a0lasers and can provide a superior quality edge on many different types of materials including aluminum, brass, copper, and stainless steel. The use of fiber optics also allows for a much smaller and focused laser head, making it ideal for precision cutting applications.<\/p>\n<h2>\n\t\t Laser Cutting Advantages\n\t<\/h2>\n\t<p>Laser cutting machines are known for cutting material with precision and lower lead times than other metal fabrication processes for flat parts. There are two main types of laser cutting methods for cutting metals, such as gas lasers (CO\u2082), and solid-state lasers using light energy (fiber lasers).
