New SUPER TURBO-X Laser-Cutting Machine



Mazak Optonics Corporation has introduced a new SUPER TURBO-X laser-cutting system featuring Mazak's new Preview 3 control. It is designed for plate applications, especially where material automation is a consideration.

The SUPER TURBO-X's laser platform features a hybrid design and an easy access table. "It features a proprietary vibration dampening frame and integrated laser resonator that ensure stable, high accuracy cutting," said a company spokesperson. "The constant beam length construction provides uniform cutting performance across the machine table."

Mazak's new Preview 3 control is designed to improve the machine's operation efficiency by automatically determining the ideal processing conditions for each material type and thickness. According to the company, it offers smooth, high-speed responsiveness and optimum acceleration and deceleration to reduce cutting times. It also features a 15" touchscreen with a high-quality display to view 3D cutting path graphics.

The SUPER TURBO-X's new Opti-Pod offers automated set-up features that help minimize preparation time and improve extended unattended operation. These are intelligent functions designed to both automate and help maintain optimized machining conditions for increased productivity.

SUPER TURBO-X series machines are available in 2.5 kW and 4.0 kW CO2 configurations with table size options of 2412 (49.21" x 98.43"), 3015 (60.04" x 120.08") and 4020 (78.74" x 157.48").
