How much does the Yawei HLF-2560 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Yawei HLF-2560 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 Yawei HLF-2560 is a six-metre fiber laser cutting machine with a 6,000 x 2,500 mm (236.2 x 98.4 in) cutting range and power options of 6, 12, 20 or 30 kW. It is the only HLF model for which Yawei prints a machine weight: 16,000 kg (35,273 lb).
From this size up the HLF changes character. The 3 kW option is gone, 30 kW appears, and the Z stroke grows to 340 mm (13.4 in) from the 300 mm (11.8 in) of the HLF-2040. The worktable load is printed as two figures, 5,800 / 7,000 kg (12,787 / 15,432 lb). The page does not say what distinguishes them, so that needs confirming.
Motion figures do not change with size. The maximum X-Y trajectory speed is 200 m/min, positioning accuracy ±0.03 mm (±0.0012 in) and repositioning accuracy ±0.02 mm (±0.0008 in). Strokes are 6,040 mm (237.8 in) in X and 2,520 mm (99.2 in) in Y.
A layout of 15,500 x 5,700 x 2,200 mm (610.2 x 224.4 x 86.6 in) has to be found for it. Yawei's claims for the series fit a machine of this power: precision processing of medium-thick sheet with no discernible piercing, and a parameter library to set it up. For thicker plate at 30 kW the limiting figure is likely to be the table load, so settle which of the two values applies to the machine being quoted.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Laser generator power is 6, 12, 20 or 30 kW. The smaller HLF-2040 is offered with 3, 6, 12 or 20 kW, and the HLF-2580 with 12, 20, 30, 40, 60 or 80 kW.
02
Yawei lists a machine weight of 16,000 kg (35,273 lb). The layout dimension is 15,500 x 5,700 x 2,200 mm (610.2 x 224.4 x 86.6 in). It is the only size in the HLF table with a weight filled in.
03
The table prints 5,800 / 7,000 kg (12,787 / 15,432 lb) as the maximum load of the worktable. Two values are given without explanation, so ask Yawei which one applies to the configuration you are buying.
04
X axis stroke is 6,040 mm (237.8 in), Y axis stroke is 2,520 mm (99.2 in) and Z axis stroke is 340 mm (13.4 in). The cutting range inside those strokes is 6,000 x 2,500 mm (236.2 x 98.4 in).
