How much does the CHMER PL6880 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the CHMER PL6880 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The CHMER PL6880 is a precision laser cutting machine with a processing size of 680 x 800 mm (26.8 x 31.5 in) and a cutting thickness range of 0.05-2.0 mm (0.002-0.079 in). CHMER says the machine is designed specifically for high reflection, sensitive materials and complicated workpieces that have narrow or acute angles.
That statement explains the format. Reflective metals such as copper and aluminium, thin silicon steel and stencil-grade stainless are difficult for general-purpose lasers at foil thicknesses, and parts with sharp inside corners punish any lag in the motion system. The PL series answers the second problem with linear motor drives, as its catalogue title says, and the PL6880 runs its X and Y axes at up to 20 m/min (787 ipm).
The table is taller than it is wide: Y travel is 800 mm (31.5 in) against 680 mm (26.8 in) in X. Z travel is 120 mm (4.7 in), and the workpiece, including any fixture frame, may weigh up to 120 kg (265 lb).
Power consumption is given as 2-24 kVA, a wide band that presumably reflects the laser source fitted; CHMER's page names neither the source type nor its power, so that has to be settled when quoting. The machine weighs 2,300 kg (5,071 lb) and occupies 2,050 x 2,190 x 2,100 mm (80.7 x 86.2 x 82.7 in).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Designed for high reflection and sensitive materials, per CHMER
- Cutting thickness from 0.05 mm to 2.0 mm
- Linear motor drive with axis speed up to 20 m/min (787 ipm)
- 680 x 800 mm (26.8 x 31.5 in) processing size
- 2,300 kg (5,071 lb) machine on a 2,050 x 2,190 mm (80.7 x 86.2 in) footprint
Limitations
- Maximum cutting thickness is 2.0 mm, so it does not replace a plate laser
- Laser source and power are not stated on the model page
- Workpiece weight limited to 120 kg (265 lb)
- Power consumption can reach 24 kVA
