The laser cutting head, using linear-induction motors, deliv- ers three axes of motion, enabling cutting of tightly nested, com- plex curvilinear shapes. The systems are available with single or multiple heads, which allows a shared balancing of the work- load to decrease processing time and improve productivity.
LaserCoil systems work with traditional feed and stacking equipment and can even be retrofitted to existing press-feed- ing lines.
