ACE Laser PRO 4020 12R

• ACE Laser Pro laser cutter systems have been designed for the use of high-power laser sources and for working with high workpiece weights
• Work area dimensions can be selected from 3000 mm x 1500 mm to 6000 mm x 2000 mm
• The machine frame is made of an thermally treated weldment for a tension-free construction - this ensures long-term repeatability for all cut parts
• The precision linear guides require minimal maintenance and are designed for long-lasting precision and high cutting speeds
• High-precision rack-and-pinion gears on the X and Y axis ensure superior and reliable positioning accuracy
• Powerful servo motors on all axes ensure high dynamics, i. e. fast response to control signals
• This allows precise adaptation of the feed for the respective cutting conditions
• To ensure operator and environment safety the cutting system is totally enclosed, and a custom safety glass window provides a clear view to observe the cutting process inside the machine
• An automatic changer table system minimizes down-times by allowing simultaneous loading and unloading of the table during the cutting process
• Perpendicularity and squareness tolerance for laser cutting acc. to DIN EN ISO 9013-1

Control

• The FSCUT8000 CNC control is based on a modern EtherCAT bus system that was developed for high-power lasers above 8 kW
• It is very user-friendly and provides extensive functions
• FSCUT is one of the leading EtherCAT controls for laser cutting systems in the market
• HypCut is a customized software for high-power laser cutters and allows smart production
• It supports planning and scheduling to simplify the system’s production management

Cutting head

• Smart cutter heads of the BLT 6 series also were custom designed for high-power laser cutting systems with max. 40 kW power
• A completely new beam path design with optimized lenses and dual dust collector ensures reliable cutting performance as well as easy setup and maintenance
• The Smart-Piercing and Auto-Recut functions fulfill the strict requirements for air-assisted and N2-assisted high-power cutting and significantly improve efficiency and yield
• Auto-Recut: A real-time cut sensor ensures constant cutting performance by detecting uncut path sections and automatically recutting them
• Smart piercing: Real-time monitoring of the piercing process allows immediate start of the cutting process when pierced - eliminates waiting periods for significantly increased efficiency
• Slag-free laser cutting: Laser beam monitoring allows prompt shut off when reaching the contour end, resulting in a virtually slag-free cut.
• Easy maintenance: The modern drawer-type design allows quick replacement of lens guards and lenses
• Lens guard monitoring: An optimized algorithm in the sensor prevents tearing of the lens guard due to contamination

Height control

• The FSCUT laser cutting system also includes a capacitive height control. Functions like height sensing, segmented and stepped plunge-cutting, detecting and finding workpiece edges, vibration suppression, etc. can be implemented via Ethernet communication
• The latest anti-collision function can effectively prevent tilt collisions in production

Laser source

• HP series CW multi-module fiber lasers from Raycus come with 4000 W to 40 kW power and feature high electro-optical conversion efficiency, high beam quality, high energy density, wide modulation frequency bandwidth, and superior reliability
• The maintenance-free laser source reduces maintenance and operating cost
