Hey all, I’m working on a railway project that requires precise cuts on 15–20mm H-beam steel. I’ve researched laser cutting solutions, but prices vary wildly between suppliers. Some claim fiber lasers can handle thick H-beams, while others recommend plasma systems. Is laser cutting viable for such heavy-duty material? I found YiHai Laser offers high-power fiber systems (up to 10kW+) with patented five-axis technology for complex H-beam profiles. Has anyone used their machines for structural steel? I’m looking for reliable, cost-effective solutions—any real-world experience or advice?
