Laser Cutting Machines

A new line of fiber fused silica lenses for high-power lasers that are easier to install than returning the laser head to the manufacturer is being introduced by Laser Research Optics.

Technology capable of thermally coating cylinder bores is a highly sought-after solution. High-performance roughening is required to produce a reliable bond between the layer and substrate, ensuring all aspects of functionality. A positive interlocking connection is achieved by undercutting and the complete filling of the profile's roughness; microscopically and evenly sprayed materials are crucial requirements for layer adhesion.

A line of ZnSe focusing lenses offered in various focal lengths for heavy steel cutting lasers which can be shipped overnight for field replacement are available from Laser Research Optics.

A full line of OEM-compatible direct field-replacement CO2 laser optics that are shipped overnight for users in trophy and plaque engraving shops is being offered by Laser Research Optics.

OSH Cut manufactures laser-cut sheet metal parts. The company's online quoting and ordering software improves industry-standard quoting and production practices that have, so far, failed to evolve with modern tools.

Pinpoint Laser Systems announces the release of its latest laser alignment accessory, the 2-Inch Transparent Receiver, for receiving laser signals to achieve machinery and equipment alignment.

SCANLAB GmbH announces series production of its high-end excelliSCAN scan system. This scan head proved its suitability for reliable industrial deployment in series micromachining, and has now itself gone into series production. Last but not least, the scan head's built-in intelligence predestines it for integration in automated fabrication environments that leverage Industry 4.0 and IoT (internet of things).

The new Coherent HighLight DL4000HPR is a compact, high power, fiber delivered industrial diode laser system that offers convenience and economy for metal processing applications such as cladding, heat treating and brazing.

A line of CO2 lenses and mirrors for precision engraving and marking lasers that are in stock for OEMs and as field replacements for end-users is available from Laser Research Optics.

BLM GROUP USA has introduced the LT7, a new generation of Lasertube capable of 3D cutting, to the North American market. Built using over 25 years of laser tube cutting development experience, the LT7 is designed to improve productivity and accuracy through innovations in tube management and handling.

Cincinnati Inc. (CI) continues its manufacturing solutions with the new MARCH (Multi Axis Rapid Cincinnati Handling) system for automated handling of metal fabrication materials. The MARCH system is for use with CI lasers to reduce operating cost and increase productivity and safety.

BEA Lasers has announced the availability of its full line of industrial laser modules, some of which are now offered in new sizes. The BEA industrial lasers are ruggedized for use in factories, machine shops and other harsh environments.
