Introduction
We recently completed the full installation and commissioning of a Vector FL90 3kW fibre laser cutter for a manufacturing customer in Coventry, West Midlands. Designed for growing workshops that require dependable cutting performance without stepping into large-format industrial systems, the FL90 delivers the ideal balance of speed, precision and operating efficiency. This installation marks another step in supporting UK fabrication and engineering businesses with reliable, production-ready fibre laser systems.
Coventry's FL90 setup shows what mid-range kW and V-CUT control look like once production shifts begin. Compare bed sizes on the fibre laser hub, read the power guide for thickness decisions, and case studies from UK education and fabrication customers running similar platforms.
Project Overview: Fibre Laser Installation in Coventry
Our customer operates within a fast-paced fabrication environment, producing precision components for industrial applications. With increasing demand and tighter lead times, they required a compact but capable fibre laser system to strengthen in-house cutting capacity.
After consultation, they selected the Vector FL90 3kW model due to its:
- Compact footprint suitable for workshop environments
- Strong cutting performance across mild steel, stainless steel and aluminium
- Efficient running costs
- UK-designed V-CUT control platform
- Expandable production capability

Why the Vector FL90 Was the Right Choice
The FL90 is engineered for workshops that want to introduce or upgrade fibre laser cutting without moving into large-bed industrial systems.
With 3kW laser power, the machine provides:
- Clean edge quality across common sheet thicknesses
- High acceleration for production throughput
- Reliable piercing performance
- Consistent repeat accuracy
Its enclosed design ensures safe operation while maintaining excellent accessibility for loading and maintenance.
As part of our wider range of fibre laser cutters, the FL90 is positioned as a balanced solution for both established and expanding fabrication businesses.
Installation & Commissioning Process
Our engineering team handled the complete installation process, including:
Delivery & Positioning
Careful machine placement within the customer’s workshop layout to optimise workflow and material handling.
System Calibration
Precision calibration of the cutting head, motion system and assist gas setup to ensure optimal performance from day one.
V-CUT Control Configuration
The FL90 features our UK-designed V-CUT fibre laser control system, offering:
Real-time cutting parameter visibility Confident job setup Stable production workflows Intuitive operator interface
Operator Training
On-site training was delivered to ensure the customer’s team could operate the system efficiently and confidently immediately after handover.
