GF Machining Solutions, Lincolnshire, Ill., today announced the expansion of its line of laser texturing solutions with the LASER P 400 3-axis machine and LASER P 400U 5-axis machines. The machines provide easy, repeatable laser engraving texturing and structuring for small parts, such as for watches, jewelry, cutting tools, small inserts and micromachined workpieces, according to the company.
As with all of GF Machining Solutions' LASER machines, the LASER 400 family is said to offer infinitely repeatable high performance, incredible accuracy and impeccable quality. The machines feature a fully digitized texturing process, which reportedly makes it easy to texture, mark, engrave and add functional texture to parts, molds and dies—even when dealing with complex 3D parts.
The modular concept of the LASER 400 family includes a patented, dual laser head that includes both a fiber nanosecond laser and femtosecond pulsed laser. This is said to allow texturing and engraving of a surface with a single setup, as well as extend the range of materials that can be used.
With a footprint of just 48.4" x 87.8", the LASER 400 machines are described as easy to incorporate into an existing production environment, and can accommodate workpieces up to 23.6" x 15.7" x 9.8" in size, while the LASER P 400U can accommodate workpieces with a maximum diameter and height of 4.7".
The LASER 400 family is automation ready and allows for unattended night and weekend operation. The machines easily partner with a System 3R pallet changer to further boost efficiency and flexibility.
The MILL P 800 U S features a torque-motor driven rotary/tilt trunnion-style table that contributes to the machine’s continuous full 5-axis simultaneous movement for smooth part surface contouring. The high-performance, high dynamic torque motor drives eliminate backlash (pitch and reverse errors…
For faster, easier cleaning, the casting of the CUT 400 S Dedicated is designed so that tank water constantly runs down the interior sides of the work envelope, keeping them wet and preventing EDM residue from drying and hardening. This sticky residue also plays havoc with an EDM’s filter and drive…
Now, My rConnect is completely cloud-based, so as long as a computer is connected to the same network as their current GFMS machine, that machine is connected to My rConnect. However, GFMS machines that don’t have network access and are connected to the Internet can also use My rConnect.
The CUT F 600’s intuitive Uniqua human/machine interface (HMI) delivers optimal functionality and ergonomics with a 19" vertical touchscreen, full keyboard and mouse. For the utmost compatibility, Uniqua supports legacy file types from various EDM manufacturers, and with offline and at-the-…
Featured on new GF Machining Solutions’ CUT P Pro Series wire EDMs, the iWire function works in tandem with the company’s Intelligent Spark Protection System (ISPS), both of which are part of the company’s Uniqua control.
All CUT P Pro Series machines optimize production for electronics, automotive, medical and mold and die manufacturers with more than 600 pre-programmed cutting processes. On the CUT P 550 Pro, these cover a wide range of parts from less than 0.04" to 15.75" (less than 1 mm to 400 mm) in…
As with all of GF Machining Solutions’ LASER machines, the LASER P 400 series offers repeatable high performance, consistent accuracy and unvarying quality. Fully digitized texturing makes it easy to texture, mark, engrave and add functional surfaces to parts, molds and dies, even when dealing with…
The machine’s repeatability and top quality result from a pure atmosphere during printing, a consistently low-oxygen environment with fewer than 25 parts per million. This solution ensures excellent microstructures, very high material density and stable mechanical properties.
The Mikron MILL P 800 U S allows shops to machine components fully on a single machine and eliminate transfer-related part errors, along with stacked tolerances, for enhanced quality of finished parts. This scalable solution is perfectly suited for automation, with a smaller footprint compared to…
GF Machining Solutions offers eight WPT 1+ models. Shops can start with a single magazine unit and then add one more as production needs change. The systems easily serve one or two machines within in a production cell thanks to the flexibility of the magazine capacities and its variants (Light,…
