We always consider the input-output ratio when making any investment. When we are preparing to buy a laser cutting machine, we will think about the question of "how long can the laser cutting machine recover costs", which is also the core issue of purchasing a laser cutting machine. Below, the laser cutting machine manufacturer XT will briefly introduce the issue of how long can the laser cutting machine recover costs.

Under normal circumstances, the cost of laser cutting machine processing is approximately 300000 yuan. The hourly processing cost of 850W solid laser cutting machine cutting 1mm stainless steel (using air) is 28 yuan, and the processing cost of 500W fiber laser cutting machine cutting 1mm stainless steel (using oxygen) is 18 yuan.

If the business volume is large, we calculate it based on 24 hours a day without downtime. The daily cost of solid laser cutting machines is 672 yuan, and the daily cost of fiber laser cutting machines is 432 yuan. The daily output value of solid laser cutting machines can reach 1900 yuan, while that of fiber laser cutting machines can reach 3120 yuan. Labor costs 200 yuan/day.

The efficiency and profit of fiber laser cutting machines are significantly higher than those of YAG laser cutting machines. The daily profit of YAG laser cutting is 1900-672-200=1028 yuan; The daily profit of fiber laser cutting machine: 3120-432-200=2488 yuan; The recovery time for the YAG laser cutting machine with a cost of 300000 yuan: 300000/1028 ≈ 292 days; The cost recovery time for the 700000 yuan fiber laser cutting machine: 700000/2488 ≈ 281 days; The above is an ideal processing estimate, but based on the actual customer's reaction and the high volume of business processing, the cost recovery time for the 850W solid laser cutting machine is about 1.5 years to 2 years. The cost recovery time for a 500W fiber laser cutting machine is around 2 to 2 and a half years. Therefore, Shenzhen Dineng Laser suggests that customers can choose a suitable laser cutting machine based on their own processing business volume and budget, and recover equipment costs as soon as possible.

At present, there are two common types of equipment on the market: YAG laser cutting machines and fiber laser cutting machines. When customers choose, they mainly need to look at the products they need to process for positioning. This is the best one that suits them. The cost of a typical laser cutting machine ranges from 200000 to 300000 yuan. If the business volume is large and we operate at full capacity every day, the daily cost should be around 500 yuan. However, it is generally processed with incoming materials, and the time is not fixed, which is relatively flexible. The daily output value can reach 2000 to 3000 yuan. The calculation of machine wear and consumption costs and personnel salaries is no exception for laser cutting machines. The equipment has a service life of 6 to 8 years, and after deducting wages, machine consumables, and wear and tear every day, the rest is profit. Due to the large business volume, cost recovery will naturally be faster. Therefore, it is recommended that customers choose the appropriate laser cutting equipment based on their processing business volume and budget to recover costs as soon as possible.
