HIGH SPEED PROCESSING OF THIN TO MEDIUM THICK MATERIALS A CARRIAGE WITH A LOW CENTRE OF GRAVITY AND THE LATEST DRIVE MECHANISM Lightweight Y-axis carriage Carriage with a low centre of gravity Higher speed is achieved by a 30% reduction in mass of the Y-axis carriage compared with a conventional laser machine. The Y-axis carriage has a low centre of gravity due to a Z-axis height of 100 mm, allowing high speed processing of thin materials. Conventional motor High torque motors and helical rack drive The latest motion system incorporating high torque motors and a helical rack drive is...

HIGH QUALITY AND STABLE PROCESSING NEW AF3500i-C OSCILLATOR BEFORE Conventional oscillator Clean cut stainless steel 5 mm High beam density Improved surface roughness The new, Amada tuned, 3.5 kW oscillator utilized in the LCG-3015 has been designed with a higher beam density for the processing of thin to mid-thickness materials. This 30% improvement in beam density (compared to a conventional machine) also improves the surface roughness of cut parts. ENERGY SAVING, STABLE PROCESSING ECO CUT Conventional 4kW machine PROCESSING TIME REDUCED BY 38.4% Mild steel 3.2 mm 400 x 70 mm PROCESSING...

FUNCTIONS AND OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT Gas Start command Pressure command Warning and alarm signals Motorised Auto Focus Control System High Pressure NC Gas Control System ‘One Touch’ Lens and Nozzle Exchange The optimum focal point is automatically set from the cutting database to suit each material. A constant focus is maintained, ensuring optimum laser beam quality and reduced assist gas costs. The assist gas pressure is automatically controlled for the entire range of materials and thicknesses being processed. To allow faster machine setup, the cutting head on the LCG-3015 is equipped with...
