FiberBlade®

Compact Laser Cutting

With the most modern fibre laser, the unit is right up to date: the Laser is characterised by a robust and long life design. No adjustment is necessary right up to the cross carriage and the emitter diodes in the laser have an average lifetime of over 50,000 hours. The laser beam is carried in an optical fibre cable through the drag chain to the cutting head, so no beam path purging gas is required.
Because of the high efficiency of the laser and the low gas consumption in total, the cutting costs on the machine are kept very low.

The machine concept of the FiberBlade is based on the tried and tested construction of a flat bed cutting machine with integrated shuttle table and a 2 axis cutting gantry. The fibre cable from the Laser resonator simply joins the other cables in the energy drag chain. To change the plates, the cutting table is moved into the changeover area with no additional drive using the cutting gantry motor. A changeover table is also possible.

The cutting area is 4m x 2m. Operating safety during laser cutting is ensured by a complete metal housing. Two cameras enable monitoring of the cutting process.

Thanks to its special design, the FiberBlade consumes comparatively low energy. Its cutting power of 2.400 Watt is comparable to the cutting capacity of a 3.000 Watt CO2 Laser. Additionally the efficiency of the FiberBlade lasers is, at 30 % about 3 times higher than a conventional CO2 Laser.
Fibre lasers work with continuous glass fibres with no deflecting mirrors and no gas purging. Expensive adjustement work is also no longer necessary.

More than that, there are no moving parts in the laser resonator itself and the operating life of the emitter diodes is over 50.000 hours.

All this results in extremely low maintenance and service costs. Guided by the Global Control, the FiberBlade is thus extremely user friendly and economical. FiberBlade is a highly efficient and energy saving fibre laser cutting machine.

The machine thus meets all expectations for simple operation, low costs and high reliability.
