TRUMPF’s EdgeLine Bevel automatically prepares edges for welding during laser cutting

TRUMPF has introduced the EdgeLine Bevel, which automatically prepares parts for welding during the cutting process. Compatible with the manufacturer’s standard laser cutting machines, this technology allows users to create beveled edges while cutting out the contours of each part. Liquid metal flows into these bevels during welding to help ensure a high-quality weld seam.

The technology also can be used to create bevels on a part’s inner contours, and it can automatically make the countersinks required to screw parts together, eliminating downstream processes.
