How much does the Yawei HLA-2580 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Yawei HLA-2580 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
High power on an open single table begins with the Yawei HLA-2580. It cuts 8,100 x 2,545 mm (318.9 x 100.2 in) and is listed with 12, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 or 80 kW.
The jump from the HLA-2560 is abrupt: that model tops out at 6 kW, this one starts at 12 kW. The table rating jumps with it, to 6,250 / 9,400 kg (13,779 / 20,723 lb), printed as two figures without explanation. Z stroke stays at 170 mm (6.7 in) and trajectory speed at 140 m/min.
For plate work, a single open table is less of a compromise than it is for sheet. Thick plate is loaded by crane one piece at a time, cutting takes long enough that table exchange saves little, and parts are heavy enough to need lifting gear whatever the table type. The layout shows the benefit: 11,400 x 5,500 x 2,000 mm (448.8 x 216.5 x 78.7 in), against 20,500 x 5,800 x 2,300 mm (807.1 x 228.3 x 90.6 in) for the HLE-2580.
The limit to respect is Z. At 170 mm it is well under the 430 mm (16.9 in) of the HLE-2580. Strokes in X and Y are 8,120 mm (319.7 in) and 2,565 mm (101.0 in). Dust is extracted beneath the cutting area, and at these powers the extraction capacity, like the laser safety of an open machine, needs to be specified with care.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Power options from 12 kW to 80 kW on a single-table machine
- 8,100 x 2,545 mm (318.9 x 100.2 in) cutting range
- Layout of 11,400 x 5,500 x 2,000 mm, far shorter than the HLE-2580
- Worktable load of 6,250 / 9,400 kg (13,779 / 20,723 lb)
- Open table for crane loading of plate
Limitations
- Z stroke of 170 mm (6.7 in) against 430 mm (16.9 in) on the HLE-2580
- Open cutting area at high laser power puts demands on site safety and extraction
- The HLA-2560 stops at 6 kW and this model starts at 12 kW, with nothing between
- Two table-load figures with no explanation

Frequently Asked Questions
01
02
Both cut 8,100 x 2,545 mm (318.9 x 100.2 in) and list a table load of 6,250 / 9,400 kg (13,779 / 20,723 lb). The HLE-2580 lists 170 m/min and a 430 mm (16.9 in) Z stroke in a 20,500 mm long layout. The HLA-2580 lists 140 m/min and 170 mm (6.7 in) in 11,400 x 5,500 x 2,000 mm.
03
X axis stroke is 8,120 mm (319.7 in), Y axis stroke 2,565 mm (101.0 in) and Z axis stroke 170 mm (6.7 in). Positioning accuracy is ±0.03 mm (±0.0012 in).
04
No. Yawei describes the HLA as having an open cutting area for sheet material and an open gantry dual-drive, single worktable structure. The dust extraction port is beneath the cutting area.
