The Marubeni Citizen-Cincom Laser Systems L2000 is designed for combining conventional machining and laser cutting on a single machine platform, reducing part handling and ensuring improved part accuracies.
The 10-micron fiber optic system is interfaced to the machine control with the cutting path and offsets fully stored and edited within the control. As a modular system not designed for a specific machine, a single system can be purchased and moved to other Cincom systems. It can also be retrofitted to some older Cincom models.
The unit can mount on the B-axis tool position for laser cutting at various angles for components that require angular laser cut features. The laser head assembly, which mounts on the gang tool slide of the machine, is liquid tight so that it can operate while high pressure coolant is flooding the workpiece during the machining process. Internal air pressure protects the lens and internal components.
An integrated camera for optical viewing and alignment is included for X-Y beam alignment to the nozzle. The live camera is visible on the included touch monitor.
