Revolutionary Prima Syncrono 2D Laser Cutting System Now Available with New, Powerful Laser Resonator
CHICOPEE, MA USA (July 1, 2008) - PRIMA North America, Inc. has announced that SYNCRONO, their breakthrough 2D Laser Cutting System, is now available with their new CV5000 Laser Resonator. The CV5000 is uniquely designed, allowing exceptionally high cutting speeds for increased productivity, the ability to process thicker materials and to produce superior cut quality with a reduced heat-effected zone.
SYNCRONO features a unique, patented laser head, designed with two additional small, linear-driven parallel kinematic axes on the moving gantry, effectively creating a "machine within a machine". This allows the cutting head to cut at exceptionally high acceleration of up to 6 G. This enables SYNCRONO to cut more than 1,000 holes per minute, making it almost twice as productive as the most advanced machines in the market.
"Now with the availability of the CV5000 Laser Resonator, the fastest machine on the market is even further enhanced by the most advanced laser resonator in its class," said Mr. Thomas Burdel, VP of Sales & Marketing for PRIMA Laser. "And, the CV5000 consumes less power, so users obtain the dual benefit of significantly enhanced performance with lower operating costs. "
SYNCRONO is available with a fully automated material handling system consisting of either a ten (10) or fifteen (15)-shelf storage pallet loading / unloading unit, automatic arm with pick-up device and suction-cup loading, a double-sheet thickness control device, sheet-metal separation unit, controller and standard protection barriers. The system feeds production, and removes and stacks parts, allowing SYNCRONO to work continuously. The addition of a dependable automatic loading / unloading system can significantly increase production up to 50%, reduce manual labor, and permit lights-out manufacturing, further enhancing SYNCRONO's remarkable productivity performance.
The small size of SYNCRONO's linear drives, combined with stiff, lightweight titanium components, produce minimal inertia, allowing mass to be moved with three times less power than typical machines. In addition, a special vibration-free design and a constant beam path throughout the 60 x 120" work area provides accurate, reliable cutting, even in very small and intricate profiles.
According to Mr. Pieter Schwarzenbach, VP of Laser Technology, "SYNCRONO is optimized by the dual-machine function; one small and lightweight, with very high dynamics and minimal moving masses and one larger, with a wide working area (60 x 120"). The dual function is coordinated by patented algorithms, for the most advantageous distribution of movements throughout the axes. This also minimizes electrical consumptions."
SYNCRONO is equipped with a high quality and high power CP laser, manufactured by Prima North America. CP lasers are well known for their efficiency, versatility and low running costs. The system is also equipped with interchangeable optics, allowing it to pass from the lowest to the highest material thickness.
