Fiber laser features air-cooled cutting head

Salvagnini has introduced the L3-30 fiber laser, now available with a 6-kW resonator to complement its 2-, 3-, and 4-kW product lines. It also comes with a new, air-cooled cutting head with adjustable optics for cutting both thin and thick materials. Air cooling is made possible by the addition of a Pelletier plate to the assembly, making nitrogen gas cooling unnecessary. A new collimator enables fast adjustment for cutting materials of different thicknesses.

TraJust software automatically manages cutting parameters, drawing upon a database for each material and thickness. Sheets of different materials and thicknesses can be processed in sequence without stopping production and with setups occurring in masked time.

The system can be accessorized with a range of material handling systems, including compact LTW and LTWC storage towers that require no additional floor space. The fiber laser system features automatic loading and automatic skeleton removal. The addition of an MCL provides a pick-and-place capability so that no shake-and-break activity is necessary.
