Laser

Description

The KOIKE Lasertex is designed with a unique laser-beam guiding system, the so-called Sigma box which is integrated directly with the CO² resonator and is mounted to the main beam cross carriage. When the cross carriage moves across the plate, so does the resonator. This eliminates the use of bellows that contain the moving optics required for maintaining the beam length in machines with stationary resonators. With the use of the Sigma box, the power source and mirrors move all at the same time so the beam length never changes. This on-board principle allows for capabilities up to  6 m cutting width and up to 60 m cutting length.

The Lasertex’s optics are sealed within the air-purged Sigma box, keeping the optics as clean as possible during machine operation, contributing to improved maintenance and reducing down time. During operation, the Sigma box keeps operators from having to change the focus lens when cutting different plate thicknesses. With one set of consumables and one focus lens, the Lasertex can cut a whole range of the same material from 3 up to 25 mm enabling unmanned, 24 hours operation. KOIKE Lasertex is supplied with a Fanuc resonator, CNC and drive system.
