Saws Out, Lasers In: Korean Firm Boosts Metal Output 300% with Golden Laser 8 Sets of Laser Cutting Machines

The Future is Laser-Cut: Boost Your Metal Fabrication Power

In South Korea’s competitive metal fabrication sector, one manufacturer has made a decisive leap. Facing bottlenecks from aging saw machines, this industrial client replaced its legacy systems with six Golden Laser fiber laser tube cutters and two 3D 6-axis robotic cutting cells. The result? A 300% productivity surge, seamless MES integration, and a blueprint for modern metal processing.

Why Metal Processors Are Ditching Saws for Lasers

1. Speed Revolution:

Traditional saw cut: 10 seconds

Golden Laser fiber tube cutter: 2.5–3.3 seconds (3–4x faster)

Impact: Higher throughput for pipe, tube & structural profile jobs.

2. Cost/Material Savings:

Near-zero kerf waste vs. saw blades

No blade wear/maintenance costs

24/7 automation readiness

3. Core Advantages for Metal Fabricators:

Stability & Precision

Burr-free cuts on stainless, carbon steel, and aluminum

±0.1mm repeatability for tight-tolerance parts

4. True Industry 4.0 Integration:

MES connectivity: Real-time job tracking, material usage analytics

Automated nesting + remote monitoring

3D Robotic Cutting Flexibility

Complex contours, bevels, and hole patterns

One-cell handling of mixed batches

The Saw Machine Obsolescence

“Automatic saws had their era. For precision, speed, and smart manufacturing, laser owns metal processing now.”

Key Limitations of the Saw Machine:

• Slow throughput

• High consumable costs (blades, coolants)

• Vibration-induced inaccuracy

• No digital traceability

Full Transition Underway

Convinced by ROI, the Korean plant will:

• Replace all remaining saw machines with Golden Laser fiber cutters

• Expand 3D robotic capacity for complex contracts

Conclusion: The New Standard in Metal Fabrication

For Korean industrial clients, Golden Laser’s solution isn’t just an upgrade—it’s operational transformation. By merging fiber laser speed, robotic flexibility, and MES-ready automation, they’ve positioned themselves as leaders in Asia’s metal processing landscape.
