Questions & Answers (FAQ) about Fiber Laser

A fiber laser specializes in engraving and marking metal and other hard materials, while CO2-lasers work better on organic materials such as wood, glass and paper. Trotec's Flexx machines can be combined with CO2– and fiber laser for maximum flexibility.

Here is a little deeper comparison:

Technology and wavelength

  • CO2 laser: Uses a gas mixture (carbon dioxide, nitrogen, helium) as the laser medium and generates a beam at 10,6 µm. Perfect for materials such as wood, plastic, glass and paper.
  • Fiber laser: Uses a doped optical fiber as a medium and generates a beam at 1,06 µm, providing high intensity and optimal absorption in metals.

Efficiency and performance

  • CO2 laser:
    • Often have higher power requirements due to their less energy-efficient design. This means greater energy loss in the form of heat.
    • The wider beam profile makes it better suited for larger work surfaces and thicker materials.
  • Fiber laser:
    • Extremely energy efficient and with a longer lifespan because it has no moving parts and gas mixtures that require maintenance.
    • Creates a finer and more focused beam, which provides high precision and faster processing times, especially when working with metal.

Ranging from a few milliseconds to minutes, the time varies depending on the material and the complexity of the design, but fiber lasers work very quickly and are ideal for high-volume production.

No, Trotec fiber lasers are very user-friendly and come with simple software. We also offer training and support if you need help getting started.

Fiber lasers work on most metals such as stainless steel, aluminum, precious metals and gold, as well as on various plastics.

Yes, the marking made with a fiber laser is permanent and resistant to wear, heat and chemicals.

Trotec fiber lasers are equipped with several safety features – protective covers, temperature sensors, safety switches such as a main switch, key switch and emergency stop button. These minimize risks for the operator.

Trotec machines have the CE marking, which meets EU requirements for safety, health and environmental protection. This gives you as the user a guarantee that the machine is safe to use and complies with applicable legislation.

It is not an easy question to answer. Each machine is configured based on the customer's wishes and therefore a fixed price cannot be set. Factors that affect pricing include, for example:

  • Laser power – How many units will you produce and what is the thickness of the material?
  • Workspace – How big are your workpieces?
  • Accessories and equipment – ​​Extraction systems, rotary engraving accessories, lenses, etc.

But you can expect a Trotec fiber laser to cost from around 280 thousand SEK.

All Trotec machines are developed and built in Austria and maintain a high quality.

Are you looking for a reliable and powerful solution for detailed marking and engraving on metal or plastic? Trotec fiber lasers offer innovative technology that gives you the best in laser marking. Trotec fiber lasers give you speed, precision and durability – and make it easy to take your production to the next level.

How a fiber laser from Trotec works

A fiber laser is a laser engraving machine that uses an optical fiber cable to generate a highly focused and high-intensity laser beam. This laser beam is extremely effective for engraving and marking both metals and other materials, as it absorbs energy directly into the surface of the material, creating a permanent, durable mark. Due to their high precision, fiber lasers are particularly useful for detailed engraving and marking, where millimeter or micrometer precision is required.

Trotec's fiber laser is based on this advanced laser technology and offers both high speed and precise precision. The laser beam is generated in an optical fiber, guided through an optical resonator to be focused, and then directed onto the surface of the material where the energy is concentrated into a small spot. This results in a permanent marking. Trotec's fiber laser is therefore a powerful tool for engraving and marking, especially on materials such as metal and plastic.

Trotec's various products within fiber lasers

Trotec offers several different products in the fiber laser sector, adapted to different needs and industries. Among our most popular fiber lasers you will find:

SpeedMarker series:

Perfect for industrial applications such as machine parts, electronics and signs where high speed and precision are essential, these fiber lasers can also be easily integrated into production lines for automated marking using robots, for example.

Speedy Flexx:

A combination of fiber and CO2-laser that provides maximum flexibility for marking on both metal and organic materials. Perfect for companies that need to work with different materials without changing machines.

Dynamic shifter:

Dynamic Shifter is a 3D technology that provides a unique opportunity to mark inclined surfaces, spherical objects and cylindrical objects.

MOPA laser:

With MOPA lasers, you can mark plastics with higher contrast and more detailed results. You can achieve black marking on anodized aluminum or recreate colors on stainless steel. In addition, the MOPA laser is often faster than conventional fiber lasers.

Simple and efficient marking with Trotec fiber lasers

Using the Trotec fiber laser is both simple and efficient. With Trotec's Ruby and SpeedMark software, you can easily design your own patterns or import existing files. You set the laser parameters depending on the material you are working with, and the machine does the rest. The high speed and precision of the fiber laser allows you to create detailed engravings, from small plastic parts to large metal components. Trotec fiber lasers are ideal for both single jobs and continuous production.

Versatile use of Trotec fiber lasers in several industries

Fiber lasers from Trotec can be used in many different industries, including:

  • The manufacturing industry: Marking of metal components, tools and machine parts with high precision.
