Compared with fiber laser cutting machine, it has the following disadvantages:

1. Mixed co2 laser can only cut thin metals, normally less than 2mm.

2. Fiber laser source has lifetime 100000 hours while co2 laser tube has lifetime 10000 hours.

3. The cutting speed of fiber laser cutter is 5-6 times of co2 laser cutter.

4. The cutting edge of fiber laser cutter is more clean.

Generally speaking, if you cut thin metals only, also need to cut nonmetal and only have space and target for one machine, please choose mixed co2 laser cutting machine. If you cut thicker metals,want to get faster cutting speed or higher precision, you can choose fiber laser cutting machine. You can buy 2nd machine for only cutting nonmetal. The price of nonmetal co2 laser cutter is less than mixed co2 laser.
