Our original, tried and trusted Trumatic L3030 flatbed laser cutting centre continues to amaze with its speed and efficiency. This machine operates according to the 'flying optics' principle, whereby the sheet remains stationary and the laser beam is moved across the working area.
This workhorse features some state-of-the-art innovation in laser cutting technology. High speed cutting of small components in thin sheets is possible by using a 3.75" lens and nitrogen. Trumpf's Process Control System (PCS) regulates and monitors the piercing process, thereby yielding enormous time saving as well as improved part quality. Compressed air cutting is an option where part cost is critical. This is achieved by substituting compressed air for oxygen as the cutting gas, with a small reduction in cut quality. Advanced Process Control (APC) is yet another feature that Trumpf has pioneered: The height of the cutting nozzle is regulated capacitively, thereby guaranteeing process reliability during cutting and piercing – even on uneven material.
