Laser product pricing depends on many variables, and the simple answer is that it all depends on your business. The average you can make with these machines is between $1 to $2 per minute depending on the volume. Costs of laser processing include setup, materials, and upkeep. Other factors to consider are the application, market, and desirability of the product or material. Competition plays a large role, and if there are 20 different companies in the same location selling the same product, it may be necessary to stay competitive, reducing profits. If the product is unique and in demand, however, it will depend on what the customers are willing to pay.
