Large-format laser machine incorporates 6,000-W resonator

April 12, 2010

Bystronic has incorporated the ByLaser 6,000-W resonator into the ByStar L 4025 series of machines. The machine can process large-format sheets measuring up to 8 ft. wide by up to 39 ft. long. It uses a short-beam delivery system and autofocus to help increase accuracy and beam stability across the cutting table, the company reports.

The resonator, equipped with solid-state power supplies and a magnetic bearing turbine, helps the laser machine cut materials up to 1 in. thick.

The cutting table is divided into work zones so users can load multiple sheets and process multiple programs onto a single table for extended processing. The machine also can process tube profiles with the rotary-axis tube option.
