Step 2: Check the Factory of Fiber Laser Cutting Machine Manufacturer

The factory is the foundation of a fiber laser cutting machine manufacturer. As a buyer, you need to inspect the factory scale, the manufacturing standards and the quality of the machine parts to know the professionalism of the manufacturer. If the factory follows strict manufacturing and quality control standards to make machines, then its fiber laser cutting machines are worth buying.

Machine Manufacturing Standard

Generally speaking, a reliable laser machine manufacturer usually has more than 10 years‘ experience in the manufacturing of fiber laser cutting machines. The manufacturer has mature manufacturing technology and professional engineers. And it usually closely works with high-end parts suppliers in the world, such as Japan Yaskawa, Germany Schneider, Japan Shimpo, etc. With the high-end parts adopted, the machine has higher cutting precision, efficiency, and longer service life.

Professional laser machine manufacturers usually follow below strict standards when they produce fiber laser cutting machines:

Machine Bed

A fiber laser cutter needs to adopt a high-strength cast iron bed to ensure stable processing. The bed structure needs to be designed through simulation analysis of static and dynamic structural mechanical properties. And the main body of the machine bed needs to be welded with high-quality steel with a tensile strength of 500Mpa. What’s more, the fiber laser cutting machine manufacturers need to eliminate the welding stress through high-temperature annealing and the natural aging process. As a result, this strict process can make the machine bed more durable and not easy to deform.

Beam

Most fiber laser cutting machine manufacturers usually choose aviation aluminum to manufacture the beam part. They extrude the aviation aluminum in a press and make its hardness reach T6. And the processed beam has good toughness, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance. A high-quality beam can increase the processing speed and improve the machine’s stability and durability.

Laser Source & Laser Cutting Head

The laser source and laser cutting head are very important parts of a fiber laser cutting machine. Professional fiber laser cutting machine manufacturer has strict demands in the choosing of laser generator.

The laser generator needs to have a smooth and efficient airflow design, adopt a protection device and be able to prevent dust. Moreover, the lens and nozzle must adopt a cooling device. For the convenience of users, the laser cutting head needs to be able to automatically adjust the focus according to the thickness of the material. The autofocus function can shorten the punching time and improve the cutting quality. For DXTECH laser cutting machines, we usually adopt Raycus or Max laser source which are famous laser source brands in the current world.

Drive and Motor

Professional fiber laser cutting machine manufacturers usually cooperate with the leading international drive and motor manufacturers. The high-end drive and motor can effectively ensure the high precision, high speed, and high stability of the whole machine during the laser cutting. So when you buy a machine, check with the manufacturer what kind of drive and motor that the machine adopts. Different brands of router kits lead to different prices. So I suggest you make multiple comparisons and choose the most suitable drive and motor.

Transmission System

The quality of the transmission system affects the cutting accuracy of fiber laser cutting machines. When assembling the machine, the manufacturer needs to ensure the accuracy of the guide rail and rack, including the screw point of each rack, the splicing point of the two racks, the straightness and horizontal accuracy of the guide rail, and the accuracy of racks.

Control System

Professional fiber laser cutting machine manufacturers prefer visual control system which can support the import of multiple types of files. And the intelligent control system has an auto typesetting function and is very user-friendly. Therefore, when buying a fiber laser cutter, you need to check if the control system supports your file. And the salesperson will also introduce the supporting file types of different control systems so that you can choose the appropriate control system.

Quality Inspection and Delivery

After the manufacturer completes the assembly of the fiber laser cutter, it needs to conduct strict quality inspections and debugging on each part of the machine before the formal delivery. And the machine bed, beam, guide rail, motor, drive, and even screw will undergo multiple inspections. In addition, the engineers will debug the cutting effect and parameter settings and set the most suitable parameters for the user.

After the strict quality inspection stage, the factory will customize the packaging wooden box according to the size of the machine and then ship the machine to the buyer’s place. And the manufacturer will also remind the buyer to prepare the required customs documents and provide the buyer with detailed logistics information and packaging lists during the delivery.

Step 3: Check the Customer Service of Fiber Laser Cutting Machine Manufacturer

Customer service is an important factor to evaluate if a fiber laser cutting machine manufacturer is good or not. If the customer receives warm reception and considerate service in the process of purchasing the machine, the customer thinks that the manufacturer is reliable. Complete customer service of a professional laser machine manufacturer includes three parts: pre-sale service, in-sale service and after-sale service.

Pre-sale Service

Professional fiber laser cutting machine manufacturers provide customers with pre-sale consultation and guidance. When a customer wants to inquire about a fiber laser cutter, the pre-sale staff will introduce the machine details including configuration, price, parameter selection, machine shipping process, etc. If the customer does not know which laser cutter to choose, the pre-sale staff will recommend a suitable machine. In addition, customers can mail their samples to the manufacturer for testing. The manufacturer tests the cutting effect and provides feedback to the customer. Through sample testing, customers can clearly know whether this machine can meet their processing needs.

In-sale Service

After the customer pays the deposit and chooses the machine configuration, the manufacturer starts to produce the machine according to the customer’s requirements.  The production environment must be clean and orderly. Some customers want to check the manufacturing process of the machine. And the manufacturer can invite customers to the factory to visit the progress. After the machine is produced, the manufacturer can perform processing tests. The manufacturer also has the responsibility to provide on-site training or online free training according to the customer’s needs.

After-sale Service

The after-sale service includes technical guidance and quality assurance after the delivery of the machine. After you get the machine, the manufacturer engineers can provide you with timely technical support and teach you how to use the machine. In addition, when buying a fiber laser cutter, be sure to buy a machine that has a warranty period. The warranty period of the fiber laser cutter needs to be at least one year so that the buyer can know if the machine is good or not. And within the warranty period, if the buyer meets any technical issues, the fiber laser cutting machine manufacturers can provide quick responses and solutions. Therefore, a reliable fiber laser cutting machine manufacturer is not only a supplier of the machine but also long-term support for the buyer.

Customized Service

In addition to the pre-sale service, in-sale service and after-sale service, customized service is also an important factor to reflect the professionalism of the manufacturer. Different customers have different processing needs and different budget plans. Professional fiber laser cutting machine manufacturers can provide customized services to customers. Customers can choose the most suitable machine according to their processing needs and budget plans. For example, if the customer needs to process 2m x 1m metal plates with 5mm thickness, the manufacture can customize the machine per the processing materials. In this way, customers have more choices and fewer worries when buying a fiber laser cutter. They can get a cost-effective fiber laser cutter without wasting any money.

Step 4: Check the Certificates of Fiber Laser Cutting Machine Manufacturer

In the international trading market, a qualified fiber laser cutting machine manufacturer needs to have some of the following certificates. These certificates are commonly recognized in the international market and indicate that the manufacturer’s machine products are safe and qualified. If you want to import fiber laser cutting machines from foreign manufacturers, you need to check if the manufacturer has these certificates.

CE Certificate

The “CE” stands for “Conformite Europeenne”. For laser cutting machines and other CNC machines, the safety of the machine is the primary standard. The CE certificate is a recognized safety certification mark and it is mandatory in the EU market. It is regarded as a passport for manufacturers to enter the EU market. If you come from Europe, you need to buy a fiber laser cutter that has a CE certificate.

BV Certificate

BV certificate comes from BVQI (French International Inspection Agency), which is recognized as the world’s most international certification organization. This certificate is used to test whether the machine meets industry regulations or export certification standards. The BV certificate has been widely recognized internationally. No matter what country you are from, if you want to import machines from abroad, I suggest you choose a fiber laser cutting machine manufacturer that has a BV certificate.

TUV Certificate

TUV certificate is a safety certification mark and it is widely accepted in Germany and other European countries. This certificate is a certification customized for component products by TÜV Rheinland (the most popular product safety and quality certification agency in Germany). TUV certificate has the same authority as CE and BV certificate.

SGS Certificate

SGS certificate is a certificate of conformity issued by a third-party inspection and testing organization for product testing. This certificate has been widely recognized worldwide. Many international buyers require the fiber laser cutter suppliers to pass SGS verification.

Step 5: Check the Public Evaluation of Fiber Laser Cutting Machine Manufacturer

If you want to know if the manufacturer is reliable or not, one of the good ways is to check its public evaluation. You can search on Google and social media and ask others how do they think about this company. If this manufacturer has many loyal customers, its machines are definitely worth considering.
