Choosing a laser cutting machine for the first time

Hello everyone, my name is Carl. I plan to start a sheet metal processing business. Do you have any recommendations for laser cutting machines? The bodor brand from China seems to be good, with reliable quality and high sales. Has anyone used it?

    You might get some good recommendations on the www.practicalmachinist.com web site.  That's an active forum for professional machinists.

    thank you very much,and I also have visited this forum.It's very good,and I want to know what is the key to stable operation of the machine? Our company plans to use bodor mainly because of its 24/7 service and 5-year warranty.

    I pay more attention to whether the machine can run stably. Bodor promises 24/7 service and has a 5-year warranty. Is it easy to fulfill these promises? Our company is about to purchase it.

    I have no experience with Bodor or fiber lasers, but I would look for references from other Bodor users.  Have you searched and/or posted the web site I referred to above.  It looks like at least one or two Bodor owners have posted there and you should be able to contact them for their opinions on Bodor.

    Thank you very much for your patient reply. We have decided to purchase Bodor's machine and are currently in the process of purchasing. Because we want to observe the use of the machine, we first purchased the A series machine. If it runs smoothly, we will continue to purchase. Thank you very much for your reply.
