Wixom, Michigan – The LT-FREE five-axis, fiber laser machine is designed for cutting three dimensional formed or shaped parts such as bent tubes, hydroformed tubes, welded assemblies, and stamped or flat sheets.
The part does not move during the cutting operation as the laser head’s freedom of movement guarantees flexibility and accuracy. The LT-FREE can make cuts very close to each other for the ability to nestle parts on a single bent tube and then use the laser to separate. Traditional cutting, drilling, punching, and milling operations, which are normally carried out in sequence, can now be performed on a single machine.
The LT-FREE series includes the HIGH FLEX universal version for bent and hydroformed tubes, flat, and deep-drawn sheets or welded assemblies; The PIECE VALUE version with rotary turntable and automatic load/unload for high productivity machining; and the ENTRY LEVEL version with dual fixed table for a wide variety of part configurations.
Included software can be used to create part programming of virtually any complexity in a simple, user friendly, 3-D graphical environment.
LT-FREE, with powers up to 5kW, table dimensions of 59” x 39” and axis stroke to x- 116”, y- 37” and z- 29”, is suitable for machining mild steel, copper, aluminum, brass, stainless steel, and galvanized steel.
