Description
The FC-44 is an enclosed industrial fiber laser cutter for sheet metal with a roughly 4 x 4 ft work area. It is the smaller-footprint model in OMTech's FC line, suited to cutting steel, stainless steel, aluminum and brass. At about 1.9 t it still needs a chiller, extraction, assist gas and a transformer, so confirm electrical and gas requirements with OMTech before planning an install.
