In the Fabrication world every second matters when it comes to your profit.
So, are you getting the most out of EVERY SECOND that’s available to you?
In today’s episode of the Premier Post Minute, I am going to discuss how Eagle Lasers help you get MORE out of every second.
EAGLE Material Exchange:
Modern fiber lasers burn through a sheet or plate quickly, so it’s important not to waste time loading in a fresh sheet. Most pallet changers were originally designed for CO2 lasers, where cutting performance was slower. They often use hydraulics and take 30 to 60 seconds to exchange a sheet.
The fastest pallet changers today are servo driven and swap a pallet in under 10 seconds. Since a shop can change sheets 6 to 10 times an hour, you save one to two hours of cut time per week.
High production applications often require automation beyond the laser’s pallet changer. Automated material handling systems can store many types of materials and automatically unload and load the fiber laser’s pallet changer. Material handling automation can keep the fiber laser running as much as possible throughout the day and offer the opportunity to run a second shift unattended.
let us imagine that you can cut a full sheet of material in 45 seconds, and a fast pallet change on a comparable laser is 35 seconds. That would mean that over an 8 hour shift you are cutting 360 parts.
Now take Eagle Lasers 9 second pallet change and with the same part taking you 45 seconds to cut. In a full 8 Hour shift you will be cutting 536 parts, just from the time saved by the faster pallet change.
Now, imagine how much your profit would increase if you could complete 176 more parts per shift?
Why not start by learning how much more profit and productivity Eagle can give you, by texting me the word “MORE”.
We look forward to you becoming one of our customers, and as always, stay safe and be sure to keep washing those hands!
