BLM Group will demonstrate the LC5 tube and sheet laser fabricating machine, which can be equipped with either a CO2 laser source with power ranging to 4.5 kW or a fiber laser source with power ranging to 5 kW. The company says that it is the only high-production machine with automatic loading and unloading that can process both tube and flat sheet. The LC5 can handle tube ranging to 334" in length and 4.75" in diameter. The processing of sheet metal is fully automatic and allows for sheet ranging to 78" × 236". The fiber laser is ideal for cutting both mild steel and highly reflective materials such as stainless steel and aluminum.
The company will also display its LT-Free fiber laser tube-cutting machine for cutting three-dimensional parts and the E-Turn and 4-Runner tube-bending machines.
