Description

Large Format 6000×2000mm Fiber Laser Cutting Machine

For many heavy fabrication companies, standard-size laser cutters are limited by sheet dimensions.

Large steel plates often require:

  • Multiple positioning operations
  • Additional material handling
  • More production preparation
  • Increased risk of dimensional errors

The YIHAI 6020 solves these limitations with a large 6000×2000mm working area.

This allows manufacturers to process larger metal sheets in fewer setups, improving production efficiency and reducing unnecessary handling.

The large format design is especially suitable for:

  • Structural steel components
  • Heavy machinery parts
  • Construction equipment parts
  • Large frames
  • Industrial panels
  • Oversized fabricated components.

4. Efficient Large Part Production

For manufacturers producing large components, reducing setups can improve workflow efficiency.

A larger cutting area allows more parts to be arranged on a single sheet, helping optimize:

  • Material usage
  • Production planning
  • Cutting workflow

Recommended Laser Power Configuration

The required laser power depends on your actual production requirements.

Medium Power Configuration

Suitable for:

  • General sheet metal fabrication
  • Medium thickness steel

How to Select the Right Power?

Consider:

  1. Your most common material thickness
  2. Maximum thickness requirements
  3. Daily production volume
  4. Required cutting speed
  5. Future production expansion

Selecting the correct configuration is more important than simply choosing the highest available power.
