Frequently Asked Questions

The significant advantages discussed before make fiber lasers the fastest growing industrial laser over the past decade, now comprising over 25% of the global industrial laser market. We typically use IPG and SPI fiber lasers with output powers from 10 W to 200 W.

Advantages of fiber lasers over the other types include the following: light is already coupled into a flexible fiber, high output power, high optical quality, compact size, reliability, and cost.

A fiber laser system is a type of laser that uses an optical fiber doped with rare earth elements as the active gain medium.

These lasers are almost cost competitive with CO₂ lasers to buy ($/W) and also to operate at lower power levels (<200 W); at higher power levels, the cost curves cross.

Fiber lasers are available from a few watts to multiple kilowatt output, but micromachining applications will typically use lasers with output of less than 200 W.
