Amada showcases latest laser innovations

A the recent 27th edition of the EuroBlech exhibition in Germany, Amada presented its wide portfolio of solutions, includingnew lasers and features for increased profitability.

For instance, the ultra-high-acceleration three-axis linear drive Regius-3015AJe, utilising Amada’sVariable Beam Control (VBC) technology for stepless laser beam shape alteration, has a 26kW twin-module Amada fibre laser engine to show new processing possibilities in the mid-to-thick material range. Changing the beam shape almost instantaneously between piercing and cutting allows operators to use the correct beam properties during all stages of laser processing.

Also on show was the new 9kW Ventis-3015Aje, which has similar performance to 10-12kW solid-state lasers thanks to Amada’sLocus Beam Control (LBC) technology and 9kW single-diode module engine. Easy processing of various thick mild steels, high-speed aluminium processing and the LBC Flash Cut system for ultra-high-speed small hole processing will benefit customers. The manufacturing cell at EuroBlech featured a compact double tower storage system with 34 shelves, increasing lights-out possibilities.

Another machine on show was Amada’s new ENSIS-3015AJe with VBC technology. The 15kW single-diode module engine gives the highest laser beam quality in the sector, says the company. According to Amada, its Fiber Silky Cut system provides stainless steel cutting possibilities comparable with CO2 lasers – useful for those in the medical and food sectors. At EuroBlech, the machine was combined with a single automation storage tower, a new TKII part removal system with increased picking capabilities and a label printer, allowing the automatic application of part identification before component removal.
