Laser-Cutting Machine for Large Sheet

May 1, 2008

LVD Strippit, Akron, NY, has added the model 4020 to its Orion series of laser-cutting systems. The hybrid-style CO2 laser-cutting system is engineered for processing of sheets as large as 157 by 78 in.

Orion systems feature a rigid, precision rack-and-pinion drive system that provides precise motion and position control. The rigid design permits the machine to maintain high processing speeds without loss of cut quality.

Automatic cutting-gas selection and cutting-gas pressure control—with servo valves—are standard features that simplify machine setup and operation. The 4020 is equipped with a high-pressure cutting head that produces clean cuts; a crash-protection system protects the head from collision damage.

The machine is available in a Plus version. The Orion 4020plus provides automatic focal positioning and greater process-control functionality, in addition to all features found on the Orion standard series.
