Cutting optics with fast distance control

Laser cutting is an established process for economic manufacture of 2-D sheet cuts or 3-D final cutting of hydro form components.

With the cutting optics Reis Lasertec offers you an efficient beam shaping tool for 2-D and 3-D metal cutting processes on the thin sheet field.

The cutting optics is equipped with a high-dynamic drive for adjustment of the optics by means of a nozzle. In conjunction with a proven Precitec®- distance control (measuring range 10 mm) the fast and precise control of the nozzle and focus distance to the workpiece is possible, as required by the cutting process.

The compact and solid design of the optics offers a high degree
of accessibility to the component. With an axis traversing range
of 12.5 mm all common path and component tolerances can be mastered.

The optics was especially designed for robot cutting applications. The potential of the optics in particular becomes evident in conjunction with an integrated beam control on the Robotics RV16LCO2- cutting robot or RLP16-CO2-linear gantry. Combined with Trumpf® TCF-1 2kW CO2-lasers the optics is already in worldwide use with great success for a lot of applications.

In principle the cutting optics can be used with all laser types, especially also with fiber and disk lasers. Adaptation to different handling systems is also possible without an integrated beam guiding system.

Control of the axis can be quickly realized without any problems
via a simple 24V I/O-interface.
