Laser-Cutting Center Makes Fast Work of Thick and Thin Materials

Wednesday, October 01, 2008

The CL-850 laser-cutting center from Cincinnati Inc., Cincinnati, OH, processes thick and thin material with a powerful 5000-W GE Fanuc laser resonator, advanced cutting head, innovative optics and third-generation linear-motor-drive system. The CL-850 delivers 1000 in./min. cutting on 18-gauge steel, and up to 11⁄8-in. processing range on mild steel. It features dual quick-change pallets that move simultaneously, so changes take just seconds and cutting is virtually continuous.

A next-generation cutting head gives superior edge quality and comes standard with the latest Autofocus head, providing 5-, 7.5- and 10-in. focal-length lenses. The lenses allow the focus points to be instantly adjusted—especially between piercing and cutting—for optimal processing of various materials.
