Laser Finishes Jobs. Plasma Creates More Work

Описание: Laser cutting vs plasma cutting — this sheet laser cutting video shows why fiber laser cutting steel replaces plasma cutting in modern fabrication. If you’re still using plasma cutting for steel plate, brackets, or production work, this video explains why laser cutting delivers higher accuracy, lower labor, and better margins.

The truth is simpler than that:

Anything you cut with plasma, a laser cuts better.

Steel plate.
Structural parts.
Brackets.
Profiles.
Production work.
One-offs.

The difference isn’t just speed.
It’s what happens after the cut.

With plasma, the work starts when the machine stops:
Grinding.
Dross removal.
Edge cleanup.
Smoke management.
Labor stacked on top of labor.
Tolerance drift that shows up later, when it’s expensive.

Laser doesn’t work that way.

Laser gives you accuracy you can count on.
Kerf so small it barely exists.
Edges that come off the table ready to weld, assemble, or ship.
Flat parts.
Predictable fit.
No secondary operations hiding in the background.

That changes everything when jobs are quoted.

Laser shops quote with confidence because the process is finished at the table. Total time is known. Labor is controlled. Margin is protected.

Plasma shops quote nervously because labor is a variable they can’t fully see yet. They pad numbers and lose bids — or win jobs and give the profit back fixing parts that never should’ve needed fixing.

This isn’t about AR400.
It’s about every job you currently cut with plasma.

Labor isn’t getting cheaper.
Cleanup isn’t getting paid for.
Customers aren’t tolerating excuses.

Laser removes entire steps from the process.
Plasma adds them.

Laser shops scale while plasma shops stay busy.

The market isn’t waiting for anyone to catch up.
