AMADA America Inc.’s Regius Series laser cutting system features a linear drive system that generates 5Gs of acceleration and reaches traverse speeds of 13,300 ipm. The system reduces the time required to process complex nests by 15 percent compared to previous models. The 6-, 9- and 12-kW laser cutters reflect this by utilizing the Laser Integration System (LIS), which incorporates features that reduce setup time and maximize quality. By autonomously monitoring for nozzle condition, pierce penetration, tip-ups and debris on the protection glass, the system can seamlessly navigate around production issues and avoid disruptions in laser processing.
