cnc fiber laser systems reimagined

Pulsed Power
Perfection

FabLight systems are engineered for efficiency, that's why we use IPG pulse energy fiber laser sources. Our systems come in three configurations - 1500W, 3000W, 4500W. Each level provides you with right power to get your project done. It's accurate too - up to ±0.002" per foot (0.15mm/m) with a 0.005" kerf (0.127mm)

tube cutting?
absolutely

Traditionally laser tube cutting systems have cost just as much as their sheet cutting counterparts. You also had to have space for both systems. Not anymore. Cut up to 3"Ø (2"Ø square/rectangular) tubes until the cows come home - or the end of the work day

Big Parts
Small Footprint

Fit up to a 25" x 50" sheet (a convenient quarter of a standard sheet) or 55" round, square, and rectangle tubes in less than 21 square feet. Our easy-load integrated sheet metal drawer makes loading material a breeze

From idea to parts
in minutes

Designed with users in mind, the 7" touch display makes operation as simple as 1-2-3: Load your material, load your FabCreator file, press start. From high school students to specialized engineers - if you can send a text you can cut metal

See how easily FabCreator is to use and implement into your workflow

Affordable
where it counts

With systems starting at $65,000, it's the most affordable machine on the market - without compromising on quality. The pulsed power laser source also keeps operating costs under $1 per hour for electricity and air

Work With
Peace of Mind

FabLights are enclosed in a Class 1 enclosure with an integrated laser safety window. Laser cutting is also quiet compared to other solutions. No special safety glasses. No ear plugs. No special procedures. You can walk around freely - no extra protection required

Set it &
forget it

FabLights are shipped in a crate with a built-in ramp. All you need to do is open it and roll it out to it's new home. No foundation adjustments. No rigging. No cranes. No special tools. No installation teams. No on-site calibration. Want a new layout on your floor? Move it. Need to change your production line? Done

clean Machine

Unlike waterjet cutting, there are no abrasives to dispose of. Easy-access panels make preventative maintenance, calibration, and service easy. No external venting required, just connect your dust collector to the exhaust and go.
