Description:

WS-Turret is a unique and flexible workstation intended for micro ablation operations with multiple wavelength ultra-short pulse laser sources, with a working volume of 200x200x150mm (under all optics). The system is extremely robust, and ideally adapted for complete & partial cutting, drilling, milling, surface structuring and others high precision tasks on a wide variety of materials all while maintaining the minimum kerf width associated with short pulse laser processing at wavelengths in IR, visible & UV. Wavelength switching is obtained automatically with our unique Turret system.  ProcessPower with OptecCAD allows simplified attribution of lasing parameters by layer or by entity, plus a full range of processing tools including hatching, helical drilling, slicing, segmentation etc.

Applications:

  • Cutting, Milling, drilling of a wide range of materials.

  • Tube processing

  • Composite material cutting

  • Scribing

  • Surface structuring
