Fiber Laser Makes its Debut
Mazak Optonics Booth 1148
Mazak Optonics, Elgin, IL, will showcase a wide
range of applications and demonstrate sever-
al new machines, including
the debut of its fiber
laser. Built on the com-
pany’s Optiplex platform,
the laser achieves
extremely high speeds
via an IPG fiber resonator, which
reportedly yields faster cuts through thin
gauge material and significantly reduces operating costs. The company’s new OPTI- PLEX 2D laser-cutting system with flexible two-pallet changer provides high through- put, AO/5 automated setup technologies and rugged construction. During booth demon- strations, show attendees will experience the machine’s new user-friendly PreView II touchscreen control and new 4000-W type 10 resonator. Also on display: the Super- Turbo-X Mark III, with power output boosted to 6000 W; and a new modular materi- al-automation system expandable to serve one to four laser-cutting machines.
