Introduction
Since 1979, PRIMA INDUSTRIE has been at the forefront of innovation in laser machinery, consistently enhancing its products with a focus on excellence. The latest advancement in their lineup is the OPTIMO EVOLUZIONE, which represents a significant leap forward in speed, accuracy, and flexibility.
Specifications and Performance
The OPTIMO EVOLUZIONE features a direct-drive head with dynamic operation capabilities, achieving 1.5 revolutions per second and an acceleration of 60 rad/s². It includes a new C axis with a stroke of ±10 mm and an acceleration of 4 g. The machine's structural rigidity is enhanced by using carbon fiber, and it incorporates active control of the optical chain to optimize laser tool management. These innovations result in increased production efficiency through faster approach and piercing times.
Flexibility and Accessibility
The machine boasts a large work volume, allowing for the processing of large parts while maintaining flexibility in part handling systems. It is accessible from three sides, with programmable automatic doors to optimize part change times. Various loading and unloading solutions are available, and the tool replacement system facilitates easy transitions between cutting and welding.
Safety Features
The Safe Impact Protection System (SIPS) ensures the machine's head detaches in the event of an accidental impact, preventing damage and allowing for immediate production restart.
Control and Usability
Equipped with the PRIMACH-20L control system, the machine offers high performance with advanced control algorithms and a user-friendly interface featuring a 15” touch-screen and trackball. The new handbox includes a graphical interface and joystick, making programming intuitive and straightforward.
Key Performance Metrics
Productivity is increased by 20%, with the direct-drive head offering market-leading precision and dynamics. Mechanical rigidity is doubled, and structural frequency is increased by 40%. The machine provides maximum accessibility and freedom of configuration, with the ability to cut 1000 holes per minute using the SYNCRONO feature.
Technical Specifications
The machine's linear axes (X, Y, Z) have a maximum speed of 50 m/min and a combined speed of 85 m/min. The rotary axes (A, B) offer continuous 360° rotation and ±135° movement. The machine's positioning accuracy is 0.06 mm, with repeatability of 0.03 mm. The overall dimensions are 8200 mm in length, 5250 mm in width, and 4100 mm in height, with a weight of approximately 21000 kg.
