At last week’s Blechexpo international trade for sheet metalworking in Stuttgart, LVD unveiled its new large-format Phoenix FL-6525 laser cutting machine and CADMAN-Flow software solutions for optimal process flow.

The Phoenix FL is LVD’s flexible, all-around laser cutting system. The company says the machine offers top-of-the-line versatility and capacity with a large cutting range up to 6510 x 2600 mm, and a bevel-cutting option. Its large-format configuration makes cutting oversized sheets easy and efficient, while high dynamics ensure consistently high-quality cutting results in thin-to-thick materials. The bevel-cutting head provides precise control of the angle and depth of the bevel to cut intricate contours or weld preparations.

LVD’s Phoenix FL-6525 is available with 6, 10, 12 or 20 kW laser power, while the bevel-cutting option is available for 10 and 12 kW systems.

The company says that its new CADMAN-Flow empowers the smart factory. CADMAN-Flow is a single point of entry to LVD’s complete software suite: software for smart drawing importing, laser cutting, punching, bending, robotic bending and MES. Via one entry, users can import and verify parts and assemblies, create smarter CAM programs, import production orders, reduce tooling set-ups, and retrieve production information from the touch controls. The result? Improved speed and flexibility of the process flow from 3D file to machine code to final product.

At the core of CADMAN-Flow is the new CADMAN-B v9, the next generation of LVD’s flagship CAM software. According to LVD, CADMAN-B v9 calculates bending solutions faster and more efficiently than ever before, even optimising and reducing tool changes to maximise throughput.
