Fiber laser cuts up to 80% faster than plasma and 600% faster than waterjet. That speed translates directly to capacity. Jobs that occupied your table for a full shift finish in hours. The freed capacity lets you take on work you previously turned away or outsourced. Many shops report winning bids they could not have quoted before. The revenue upside is not just doing the same work faster — it is accessing new work entirely.

Most Canadian fabrication shops see payback within 18-36 months depending on the system and workflow.

Fiber laser uses up to 40% less energy than CO2 systems. Consumable costs drop dramatically. The biggest savings for many shops is bringing outsourced work in-house. Most shops pay 15-25% markups on outsourced tube cutting. That margin stays in your pocket. Reduced scrap from tighter nesting and narrower kerf also compounds over production volume.

  1. Sheet cutting (12kW-20kW, $450K-$600K CAD): 24-36 month payback
  2. Tube cutting: 18-24 month payback from eliminating outsourcing
  3. Handheld welding ($32K-$52K CAD): 4-6 month payback at 4x TIG speed

A $500K capital expenditure does not have to drain your operating account. Vantix offers lease and finance-to-own options with $0 down available for qualified buyers. Terms range from 24 to 84 months. When you compare the monthly payment to the monthly cost of inefficiency, the financing payment is often less than what the old process costs.
