As fiber lasers claim more and more market share in industrial applications, particularly by matching or surpassing the capabilities of more established CO2 machines, global makers are offering an innovative new player in the field.​

Platino 2.0 Fiber

Platino 2.0 Fiber: Maximize your profit with a productive, efficient, flexible and easy to use fiber laser cutting machine.

Tailored on your application

The new 2.0 version of the Platino Fiber laser machine has been developed to maximize customer’s competitiveness according to their application. A series of option suites is dedicated to the different production needs:

Tried and tested platform with innovative solutions

These suites add further value to a high performing, flexible and reliable machine, based on the tried and tested Platino platform with 2000 installations across the globe.

Platino 2.0 Fiber is available with high brilliance, energy efficient fiber lasers from 2 to 6 kW. Platino 2.0 Fiber head, dedicated to fiber technology, is supplied with a single lens suitable for all applications, an optional automatic nozzle changer and with advanced sensors. All this and many other features make it an accurate, versatile and efficient machine also in case of 24/7 non-stop production.

The protection cabin is available in two versions: LEAN, faster to install and with an attractive price, OPEN, with higher accessibility and visibility of the work area.

A wide range of modules for the automation of the material flow allows to answer customer’s expectations even when the production needs vary with time: from automatic loading/unloading to storage, from selection and stacking of finished parts to the integration with a flexible manufacturing system (FMS).

AMADA ENSIS-3015AJ

Amada’s latest fiber laser boasts a very special feature, namely the ability to continuously adjust the beam to match the material thickness. What in the past could only be achieved through manual lens changes is now performed automatically by the system itself. In other words, the focus point and the focus distance can be adjusted for compensation automatically.

Development of Laser Cutting Technology

The principle underpinning these capabilities is based on the use of variable beam control system. In the case of thin sheets, an extremely fin beam of high energy density cuts a thin material at high speed. As the material thickness increases, a beam of wide kerf cuts a thick material, a gap is formed for the assist gas to remove the spatter. Users benefit from long, unattended production runs, easy for use and stable cutting.

Development of Laser Cutting Technology

The technique in this process is based on Amada’s professional experience in fiber laser. Amada is both manufacturer of machine and developer of Amada’s original own fiber laser oscillator.

This Technology is an advancement on Amada’s fiber laser oscillator. The advanced ocscillator incorporates Amada’s original variable beam control unit as a total control system.

Users will benefit from the continuous use of the machine with almost no monitoring and setting up or device adjustment, resulting in an automatic workflow.

Practically interruption-free production

The elimination of the need to change lenses is not the only crucial advantage offered by the innovative Ensis-3015 AJ. ENSIS-3015AJ also has one important feature—the process range expansion. In other words thanks to the beam modulation described above ENSIS uses fewer laser energy but it is able to cut a workpiece with the same thickness ad done by conventional laser cutting machine, which requires more watts. Such as the 2000 Watt output which is enough to cut sheets of as much as 25mm in thickness while still providing outstanding quality when compared to other machines which require 4000 watts. The result is practically interruption-free, high speed, high quality production with all system components performing with outstanding energy efficiency. Even nozzle changes are automatically changed to provide optimum cutting results. The Ensis-3015 AJ is ideally suited for ferrous steels as well as for nonferrous metals such as copper, brass or titanium and has an extremely compact footprint.
