How much does the Bystronic ByStar Fiber 3015 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc laser cutting machine in this class — not a quote from Bystronic. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Bystronic ByStar Fiber 3015 is a fiber laser cutting machine with a 3,100 x 1,580 mm (122 x 62 in) working area, linear drives on the X/Y axes and laser power options from 3 kW to 20 kW. This model does not appear in Bystronic's current lineup, so treat the listed figures as a reference when looking at a machine already built.
Eight power levels are listed: 3 kW, 4 kW, 6 kW, 8 kW, 10 kW, 12 kW, 15 kW and 20 kW. Thickness limits are given for 10 kW only: 25 mm (1.0 in) in mild steel, 30 mm (1.18 in) in stainless steel and in aluminium, 15 mm (0.59 in) in brass and 12 mm (0.47 in) in copper. The brass and copper rows are useful, since reflective metals are often left out of such tables. Z-axis travel is 100 mm (3.93 in).
Positioning speed in X/Y is 120 m/min (4,724 ipm), and simultaneous positioning speed is 170 m/min (6,693 ipm). Bilateral repeatability is 0.025 mm (0.001 in) and bilateral position deviation 0.05 mm (0.002 in). Table changeover takes 25 seconds and the automatic nozzle changer has a 15-second changeover, so neither interrupts a short-run nest for long. The table carries up to 1,100 kg (2,425 lb).
For installation, the machine weighs 11,000 kg (24,250 lb) without exhaust, chiller or conveyor and measures 11,900 x 5,700 x 3,200 mm (469 x 224 x 126 in). Total electrical consumption is listed as 22 kW for the 6 kW laser variant only; machines with larger sources will draw more. The control is ByVision Cutting on a 21.5-inch touchscreen.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Thickness limits at 10 kW cover five materials, including 15 mm (0.59 in) brass and 12 mm (0.47 in) copper
- Linear drives on the X/Y axes with 170 m/min (6,693 ipm) simultaneous positioning speed
- Table changeover in 25 seconds and an automatic nozzle changer with a 15-second changeover
- Bilateral repeatability of 0.025 mm (0.001 in)
- Eight power levels listed, from 3 kW to 20 kW
Limitations
- Thickness limits are listed for 10 kW only, so the 12 kW, 15 kW and 20 kW options cannot be judged from the table
- Maximum workpiece weight is 1,100 kg (2,425 lb), which caps full-size sheets of thick plate
- Measures 11,900 x 5,700 x 3,200 mm (469 x 224 x 126 in), and the 11,000 kg (24,250 lb) weight excludes exhaust, chiller and conveyor
- Electrical consumption of 22 kW is listed for the 6 kW laser variant only

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Eight options: 3 kW, 4 kW, 6 kW, 8 kW, 10 kW, 12 kW, 15 kW and 20 kW. The source is a fiber laser with a 1.07 micron wavelength. Check the nameplate of any individual machine, because cutting capacity differs greatly across that range.
02
The 10 kW rows give 25 mm (1.0 in) in mild steel, 30 mm (1.18 in) in stainless steel, 30 mm (1.18 in) in aluminium, 15 mm (0.59 in) in brass and 12 mm (0.47 in) in copper. No limits are listed for the other power levels.
03
Machine dimensions are 11,900 x 5,700 x 3,200 mm (469 x 224 x 126 in) and the weight is 11,000 kg (24,250 lb) without exhaust, chiller or conveyor. Total electrical consumption is listed as 22 kW for the 6 kW laser variant; no figure is given for the larger sources.
04
Bilateral repeatability is 0.025 mm (0.001 in) and bilateral position deviation is 0.05 mm (0.002 in). Positioning speed is 120 m/min (4,724 ipm) in X/Y and 170 m/min (6,693 ipm) simultaneous, on linear drives.
