low price gimmick,Core component laser power virtual standard+Substituting one thing for another

Mainstream lasers

There are many mainstream laser manufacturers on the market,includeIPG、TRUMPF、Raycus、Chuangxin、Jept、Feibo Optoelectronics、grace、SPI、CETC、Changfei Guangfang、Caplin、Haifu Photonics、Guanghui Laser、Lianpin Laser, etc.(In no particular order),Each company has its own areas of advantage and core features.。

on the current market,Some manufacturers promote themselves as“Self-developed laser”,But in fact, most of them rely on Raycus、OEM production by professional laser manufacturers such as Chuangxin,This also makes it difficult for many customers to judge the durability and cost-effectiveness of the laser they purchase.。Next,We provide you with a detailed analysis of the core advantages and areas of expertise of each manufacturer.,Convenient and accurate selection:

IPG:Inventor of fiber laser,cutting/welding/3DPrinting preferred,But the price is high、Long lead time;
TRUMPF:Cutting accuracy/speed/Section quality industry ceiling,Extremely high price,More inclined to complete line solutions;
Raycus:Full range coverage(cutting/welding/Marking/Clean);
Chuangxin:Full range coverage(cutting/welding/Marking/Clean);
Jept:MOPAGlobal leader in pulse lasers,Precision marking/welding/Expert in cleaning field;
Feibo Optoelectronics:Main pulse/Quasi-continuous laser,Marking、Precision welding、Distinctive in the medical field;
grace:High power fiber laser has good stability,Technology accumulation in the field of semiconductor pump sources;
SPI:European established manufacturer,pulse/Continuous lasers have a good reputation in the field of precision processing;
CETC:Special fiber、ultrafast laser,Military industry/Scientific research scenarios have technical advantages;
Changfei Guangfang:From special optical fiber(PCVD/MCVDpreform)→Core device(pump、combiner、grating)→Laser machine,Achieve vertical integration of the entire industry chain(With Raycus、Chuangxin’s core differences);
Caplin:Focus on laser welding、Cladding、3DPrint;
Haifu Photonics:Mainly marking、Precision welding、Clean;
Guanghui Laser:Good at cutting medium and thick plates、Pipe processing;
Lianpin Laser:Focus on marking、Low power cutting。

Core Trap One:Model confusion virtual standard power

After understanding the advantages of each manufacturer,There is another one when purchasingKey takeaways:In addition to confirming the laser brand,Be sure to check the specific model carefully!model,It is the most common in the industry“Downgrade Trap”,Many unscrupulous merchants will confuse models,Use low-power products to take advantage of sufficient power,Deceiving uninformed customers

Typical cases(Raycus Laser)
Standard full model:
1500W → RFL‑C1500S / RFL‑C1500SM
2000W → RFL‑C2000S / RFL‑C2000SM
3000W → RFL‑C3000S / RFL‑C3000SM

Merchants’ false mark routines:
RFL‑C015(actual1200W)Impersonate1500W
RFL‑C020(actual1500W)Impersonate2000W
RFL‑C030(actual2500W)Impersonate3000W

Core Trap 2:Replace original lasers with second-hand refurbished parts for profit

The price and value of second-hand equipment is much lower than that of brand-new equipment,We are not exclusive of trading in second-hand equipment,RatherFirmly opposed to charging the price of brand new products,Selling second hand/Refurbished laserfraud。

Typical cases(Raycus Laser)
Yi Ruike1500WLaser as an example:
• Brand new original laser:about1400 USD
• second hand/Refurbished laser:only about600 USD
The huge price difference has become the core hidden profit source for unscrupulous merchants。Share it here for novice buyers3A simple and effective identification method:
1. Appearance inspection:Check whether there is dust accumulation on the laser housing、scratches、Oil pollution、rust spots,or obvious signs of disassembly and assembly;
2. Nameplate verification:Check whether the nameplate on the fuselage is illegible、The serial number is polished,or there are alterations、Repost、signs of replacement;
3. core verification(most effective):The whole machine is running without load10minutes later,Via device software/computer connection laser,Use official software to view:
▶ Internal operation logs and actual working hours
▶ Is the real power curve stable?
▶ Is the historical fault record abnormal?
If you find that the power continues to drop,There is a high probability that the pump source is aging.、Due to laser refurbishment。

Pothole avoidance plan

1. Sign a formal contract,Clearly label the laser brand、model,Reject vague expressions;
2. Check the laser serial number through the official software during machine inspection、Power curve,Confirm full power;
3. Request the manufacturer to provide the laser’s original warranty certificate,avoid renovation/High imitation parts。
