Power Meets Precision: 80kW Laser Cutting Redefines Thick Plate Processing

As industries evolve toward larger structures and heavier materials, the demand for ultra-high-power fiber lasers continues to surge. For manufacturers working with mid-to-thick plates, PENTA LASER’s 80kW cutting system offers a game-changing combination of cutting speed, edge quality, and cost efficiency.

Why High Power Matters for Thick Plate Cutting

Cutting mid-to-thick steel plates—especially in the 30mm to 70mm range—requires not just brute force, but intelligent control. With 80kW of laser power, this system ensures deep penetration and consistent energy delivery, enabling smooth, bright, and slag-free edges even on extremely thick mild steel.

Compared with conventional low-power systems, high-power laser cutting:

Delivers much faster cutting speeds

Reduces taper and thermal deformation

Minimizes secondary processing like grinding or polishing

This translates directly into higher throughput and lower production cost.

Smarter Gas, Cleaner Cuts

A standout feature of PENTA’s high-power cutter is its proprietary mixed gas cutting technology. By blending nitrogen and air with real-time ratio control, it significantly reduces the reliance on pure nitrogen, making thick stainless steel cutting more economical.

The result? Clean edge quality on stainless steel, excellent kerf control on mild steel, and substantial cost savings for high-volume operations.

The New Standard for Industrial Fabrication

From shipbuilding to construction equipment, pressure vessels to heavy machinery, this 80kW powerhouse brings speed and accuracy to every plate. Combined with PENTA’s advanced motion systems and software, the machine is built for stable, long-term performance in the most demanding environments.
