The fourth generation of laser cutting

As a fast, compact laser cutting machine with semi-flying optics, the LC-ALPHA series not only compels with extremely short piercing times but also with its high travel and cutting speeds. The machine achieves travel speeds of up to 113 meters per minute; depending on the material, the cutting speed is up to 20 meters per minute, with any expansions of the laser beam reliably compensated for by the technology used. At any time, the adaptive optics precisely adjust the beam properties to the corresponding material. This means that optimum cutting conditions are always achieved. Even at high speeds or under plasma, the system always cuts reliably. The HS 2003 as well as the nozzle and lens quick-change system permit considerable setup time reductions since far fewer settings are required.

The LC-ALPHA is optionally available with a 2500 W or 4000 W resonator. The fourth generation is now also equipped with the AMNC multimedia network controller. The innovative controller is very user-friendly and primarily makes multiple concurrent machine operation of punching, laser or bending systems easier. The uniform user interface and menu navigation via touch screen allow machine operators to quickly get accustomed to the technology, drastically reducing operator errors and the amount of training needed.
