FABERTEC FL2
1325 / 1530 / 2030 / 2040
AFFORDABLE FIBER LASER CNC CUTTING MACHINE WITHIN REACH OF EVERY WORKSHOP SMALL OR LARGE
The FABERTEC FL2 is an entry-level fiber laser cutter designed specifically for smaller metalwork workshops aiming to enhance their operations and reduce subcontracting costs. With a laser power starting from 1kW up to 6kW, this machine is capable of cutting mild steel with thicknesses ranging from 0.1mm to 25mm. One of the key advantages of the FABERTEC FL2 cnc fibre laser is its affordability, making it an ideal choice for workshops and fabricators with budget constraints. By investing in this model, smaller businesses can improve their cutting capabilities while saving costs associated with outsourcing to subcontractors.
The machine is available in four standard table sizes: 1300 x 2500mm, 1500 x 3000mm, 2000 x 3000mm, and 2000 x 4000mm. Those table sizes provide flexibility to accommodate various project requirements. Additionally, bespoke table sizes can be customized to meet specific needs upon request, ensuring a perfect fit for any workspace. All FABERTEC fiber laser cutters are equipped with high-speed and powerful servo motors. These motors enable the machine to achieve impressive cutting speeds of up to 60 meters per minute. This feature significantly contributes to efficient cutting operations, allowing for faster production and improved productivity shifts.
FL2 - RAPID LEARNING AND USEABLE BY EVERYONE
Our main focus was on allowing almost anyone to start to use machine safely in matter of minutes. The CAD/CAM software installed with every FL2 is capable of drawing your own shapes and cutting from the same level. The program can be easily learned and operated, enabling operators to quickly cut metal sheets just after 30-60min of training.
At FABERTEC, we prioritize user-friendliness in our machine design, ensuring that even apprentices in the workshop can operate our machines with minimal training. This capability not only saves on employee costs but also enables workshops to start CNC cutting immediately upon receiving the machine without hiring an experienced and in most cases costly new operator.
NOTE
- 1) Please be aware that it is a Class 4 Laser product, so you need to position open bed fiber laser machine in an enclosed area where no one except the operator can be exposed to the laser light. Operators need to wear protective glasses at all times (supplied).
- 2) Single phase (230v) up to 2kw laser source.
LASER SOURCE - THE HEART OF FIBER LASER CUTTING MACHINES
In all fiber laser cutting machines the one of the most important part which allows for smooth and accurate cuts is laser source. At FABERTEC we offer German/US made IPG source or more affordable MAX/RAYCUS source.
Before 2024, we thought that IPG is the best laser source but after we received training in laser source repairs and we opened first in UK repair centre FIBER DOCTOR we look at MAX / RAYCUS brands with much more respect.
MAX/RAYCUS source cost roughly 30-40% of the IPG brand and they cutting with the same quality/speed and accuracy like more expensive brands.
What's most important in our opinion is the fact that those affordable brands can be repaired with ease, spare parts are available and they designed to be more open for service centres.
All of course is dependable on your budget and preference. At FABERTEC we will install in our UK branch whatever source you may prefer.
When cutting reflective materials like brass/copper you have to make sure you will be piercing material without bounce back light going back to laser source. Any damage from laser coming back to source may not be honoured by the manufacturer.
FL2 - TRANSPARENCY, AFFORDABILITY, AND QUALITY
For over 20-30 years since mass produced fiber lasers appeared in metal fabricators workshops the entry price for those machines was insanely high as it happens with all new technologies. Just 10 years ago the 1kW entry model from TRUMPF, AMADA or BYSTRONIC would set you back £200-300k. As the technology moved forward and lots of firms started to invest in fiber source manufacturing facilities the cost of parts starts to drop quite significantly even to a point where metal fabricator can start with rapid metal cutting FABERTEC FL2 1kW for only £32k+VAT.
As we are also fabricators we don't have time for long quotations, endless emails and small prints in pricing. We always will advertise clearly all of our prices without any hidden costs. What you see is what you pay - no extras for software, consumables, delivery, commissioning, training and ongoing support.
CLARITY IN PROCUREMENT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO US

LASER HEAD - THE "FOCUS" OF THE MACHINE
Features of Laser Head BM06k 1kW to 6kW Power
- The cooling structure, for both the collimation module and focus module, and cooling to the nozzle effectively protects the nozzle & ceramic part and extends the lifespan.
- 4 cover glass designed to effectively decrease contamination risk during the replacement of fiber & cover glass and extend the lifespan of collimation and focus lenses.
- Autofocus by moving the collimation lens to achieve higher speed and a bigger auto-focus range.
- Monitoring the temperature of the bottom cover glass could be accessed by a mobile APP or computer desktop in real-time. Alarm output for overheating to protect the optical path system effectively.
- Improved autofocus motor for rapid focus length change.
- The body of the laser head is designed in such a way to maximize the coolant liquid flow to prevent damage to collimating and focusing modules and ceramic nozzle.
- By adding 4 protective lenses the Raytools BM06K laser head minimizes the risk of contaminating crucial and expensive to replace components.
- Integrated temperature sensors close to the lower protective lenses monitor the optimal condition for efficient cutting.
- Improved design of the fiber interface ( QBH, QD, G5) provides a tight, sealed connection preventing dust ingress.
- Integrated design to ensure sealing.Improved fiber interface (QBH, QD, G5) to benefit their compatibility with lasers and prevent them from being stuck for leaks and rusts.
