Hybrid laser with constant beam length

YAMAZAKI Mazak has recently unveiled an extensive range of new technology adding to its range of machine tools and lasers, with the addition of the Super Turbo-X Champion hybrid laser cutting system.

Building on the capabilities of the Super Turbo-X family, the new hybrid laser cutting system has a constant beam length allowing it to uniformly and accurately cut sheets up to 11.75mm for mild steel; 4mm stainless steel and aluminium as well as 2mm in brass without changing optics, resulting in the reduction of set-up and downtime.

Featuring a Takumi closed-box frame to provide vibration dampening to better ensure high accuracy, high-speed cutting and increased edge quality, also included are high-precision ball screws in all axis of motion create smooth acceleration to assure smooth cutting and high quality finished parts.

A 1200mm x 2400mm work table moves smoothly along the X axis while the patented constant beam length system moves the torch in the Y axis for the optimum cutting with no beam divergence.

The company’s PREview 640 CNC, featured on the HyperGear 510 laser, drives the laser system through a powerful 64-bit processor featuring “look-ahead” capability to predict and prevent cutting problems.
