New Fiber Laser Can Process Up to 1.5-Inch Stainless
April 1, 2016
All Metals Fabricating, Inc. recently expanded its fleet of fabricating equipment with a TruLaser 5030 fiber with an 8 kW TruDisk laser with two TruStore 3030 storage towers. The TruLaser 5030 fiber is a 2-D laser cutting machine available with an 8kW solid-state laser. "First available with the 8 kW laser in November 2014, this highly productive machine has the ability to significantly boost productivity when processing medium and thick sheet metal. The system at All Metals Fabricating is the first of its kind in Texas," said a TRUMPF spokesperson.
"As a productive laser for cutting sheet metal, the 8 kW TruLaser 5030 fiber is able to process thin materials with high speed as well as thick material with high quality," said the spokesperson. With BrightLine fiber, the 8 kW TruLaser 5030 fiber can process up to 1-inch steel and 1.5-inch stainless and aluminum. The laser source, machine, optics, optional cutting technologies, automation, storage systems and software were all developed by TRUMPF to work in tandem.
As a job shop processing a wide variety of materials and thicknesses, All Metals Fabricating sought to invest in fiber laser machine technology. All Metals Fabricating CFO Lance Thrailkill explains, "We believe in giving our employees the best technology available and providing the best tools so they can be innovative in their work."
The company also invested in TruStore 3030 storage towers to increase efficiency as well as the laser's beam-on time. "We strive to be a world-class manufacturing facility that supplies the best quality at the best price. The power and performance of our new TruLaser 5030 fiber enables us to deliver parts faster and more economically for our customers," said Thrailkill. "In addition, BrightLine fiber will enable us to cut thicker material much more efficiently, which will increase our capabilities and competitiveness in that niche of the industry."
