The annual Trumpf UK open house proved itself to be a real success in more ways than one. For instance, not only did the three-day event attract more than 200 people through its doors, but orders in excess of £2m were secured. Arguably the star of the show at this year’s event was the TruMatic 1000 Fibre, an entry-level combination machine. Featuring a compact footprint, this combination laser machine can be equipped with functionality that punches holes, bends flanges and forms threads.

Elsewhere at the open house, the high end of Trumpf’s laser-cutting capability was on show. For instance, the company’s flagship TruLaser 5030 Fibre with 8 kW resonator was being put through its full range of capabilities, including cutting stainless steel up to 40 mm thick. Open house visitors were also introduced to the new Trumpf touchdown nozzles on the TruLaser 5030, which can reduce gas consumption by up to 70%, while doubling processing speeds, says the company.
