How much does the Machitech Fiber Prime 5x10 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Machitech Fiber Prime 5x10 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 Machitech Fiber Prime 5x10 is a compact fiber laser with automatic shuttle tables, built for sheet up to 122 in (3,100 mm) long and 63 in (1,600 mm) wide. It is offered with a 6 or 12 kW source and sits at the entry of Machitech's laser range, below the high-power Fiber Prime S.
Power decides what it cuts. With 6 kW the maker's table gives mild steel to 1 in (25 mm) and stainless steel to 0.75 in (20 mm). With 12 kW mild steel, stainless and aluminum all reach 1.5 in (40 mm). Copper and brass stay thin at either power, 0.25 in (6 mm) and 0.3 in (8 mm) at 6 kW. Those are maximum figures, and production thickness is normally well inside them.
Acceleration is 1.5 G and rapid speed 5,500 ipm (140 m/min). The cutting head is a Precitec ProCutter with motorized focus adjustment. Two motor driven shuttle tables exchange automatically, and a one-click startup runs material exchange, edge detection and cutting as one sequence. A side access door and built-in drawers give access to parts.
The table is rated for a workpiece weight of 3,480 lbs (1,580 kg), which Machitech gives for a 1 in steel plate. The machine is 360 in (9,180 mm) long including the shuttle, 89 in (2,270 mm) high, and weighs 15,430 lbs (7,000 kg) without laser source, chiller and dust collector. Nesting is done in Lantek Expert Cut, and the touchscreen controller supports remote management.
