The sales volume of laser cutting machine is gradually increasing every year, gradually replacing the traditional processing equipment and becoming the new “right-hand man” in the sheet metal processing industry. Many people believe that the main reason for the increase in sales is the superior cutting performance. Indeed, the sheet metal laser cutting machine is at the top level in terms of both cutting efficiency and cutting quality, which is also the focus of attracting customers, but it cannot directly determine the sales volume of the sheet metal laser cutting machine.
The reason for the increase of laser cutting machine sales is most closely related to the laser price. From the sales in 2018 and 2019, the domestic market size of laser cutting equipment has reached 24.3 billion yuan in 18 years, up nearly 26.6 percent compared with previous years. In 19 years, the growth rate of laser cutting equipment market size slowed down due to the friction between China and the United States and the cyclical decline in the demand of the electronic industry. Compared with that in 18 years, it rose by nearly 9.5 percent, showing a steady upward trend.
Combined with the development of the laser industry, it can be found that in the past two years, the price of the laser, the core component of the laser cutting machine, has been “cut” for many times, which is also directly related to the domestic laser manufacturers, thus directly accelerating the growth rate of the laser cutting machine market.
Previously, we had not been able to develop high-quality lasers in China, and we relied on foreign imports. The price of imported products is on the high side, and the laser can directly determine the sheet metal processing capacity of the laser cutting machine, so the price of laser cutting equipment at that time will also have an impact, and the price is generally on the high side.
Now, the appearance of domestic laser manufacturers has broken the deadlock, directly reducing the price of lasers again and again, and the sales of laser cutting machines also ushered in a “climax”. At the same time, the competition in the laser cutting industry has also shown a white hot trend.
The increasing competition in the laser cutting industry has also led to more and more manufacturers of laser cutting machines. There are countless brands of large and small companies, and the situation of “fish’s eyes mingle with pearls” is very obvious. Therefore, users are easy to “step on the pit” when choosing laser cutting machines. In this regard, the user is advised not to blindly pursue the brand or price, but to carefully consider and conduct field investigation
