LS3015HL from Muratec offers hybrid of fiber laser, forming, and tapping

Murata Machinery USA Inc. has introduced the LS3015HL hybrid fiber laser, which combines fiber laser cutting with the forming and tapping performance of the manufacturer’s punch press technology.

Its integrated flying-optics system for fiber laser cutting and upper and lower servo drives for forming help turn raw material into completed products in fewer steps. With repeat accuracy of ±0.001 in. and a 6,692.9-IPM traverse speed, the machine is suitable for prototypes, large-volume runs, short-run stamping, sample parts production, and varied geometries.

The all-in-one design helps maximize floor space, minimize WIP materials, eliminate the need for secondary processes, and increase throughput, the manufacturer reports.
