Within the framework of regional competence days and the ‘Euroblech Digital Innovation Summit’ online event, Bystronic presented its latest products and solutions for the fields of laser cutting, bending, automation and software.

Among other things, the sheet-metal processing specialist demonstrated how manufacturing environments can be intelligently networked to achieve even higher efficiency.
Numerous highlights were outlined. For instance, in order to offer sheet-metal processing companies even better support in an increasingly competitive environment, Bystronic is now advancing into a new dimension of fibre-laser cutting: the 15 kW ByStar Fiber. According to the company, this high-end fibre laser offers high-precision Bystronic technology and a reliable cutting process (even with the high laser output) to meet a wide range of applications.

The technological leap from conventional 3-12 kW systems to the new 15 kW level is significant: on average, thanks to the 15 kW laser, the cutting speed of the ByStar Fiber increases by up to 50% compared with a 10 kW laser source. As a result, sheet-metal processing companies can benefit from higher productivity at lower unit cost. In short, its 15 kW output means the latest ByStar Fiber cuts steel, aluminium and stainless steel precisely and reliably in thicknesses between 1 and 30 mm, and brass and copper in thicknesses up to 20 mm.
Bystronic’s 15 kW laser output enables extended applications in steel and aluminium of up to 50 mm, and thus offers flexibility both for large series and urgent customer orders. Regardless of whether cutting aluminium, other non-ferrous metals or steel, the Bystronic cutting head is said to excel with maximum precision in both thin and thick sheet. The new power level is available for the ByStar Fiber 3015 and ByStar Fiber 4020.
