OPTIPLEX 3015 DDL



The OPTILPEX 3015 DDL is the first Mazak OPTIPLEX with a direct diode laser. "This is an exclusive platform that delivers higher performance and reliability than traditional fiber or other solid state laser generation systems," said a company spokesperson. "It offers faster cutting speeds than fiber lasers of like power and wall-plug efficiencies of 45% as compared to 35% for fiber. The has a shorter wavelength than a fiber laser for higher speed cutting in thin to medium worksheets including reflective materials such as aluminum, copper and brass," said the spokesperson. The utilizes a flying optics, 2 pallet changer design with a new PreviewG Control and higher performance digital drive package.

"The PreviewG Control provides higher productivity through high-speed and high-accuracy. The new advanced hardware offers state-of-the-art CPU for unsurpassed operations speed, high-response and high-speed machine motion. The PreviewG control provides optimum acceleration and deceleration for the reduction of cutting time plus tolerance control ensures high-speed corner cutting. The laser control is improved to generate optimum laser power in the minimum amount of time and improved performance for fly cutting and sharp edge cutting," said the spokesperson. The new large 19" LCD display with touchscreen operation acts similar to a smart phone or tablet for increased ease of operation.

The incorporates the Mazak intelligent set-up functions such as beam diameter control, focus detection, auto nozzle changing, auto focus positioning, auto profiler calibration and auto nozzle cleaning. The also has intelligent monitoring functions such as pierce detection, plasma detection and burn detection.
