What is most important when you are selecting a Fiber Laser?

 
 

Eagle is the best choice in flat-stock sheet and plate metal cutting because advanced technology delivers the fastest throughput and lowest cost per part in the industry. Here are some details:

1.           HIGHEST POWER – 2 to 15kW: The competition is just now reaching 8 to 10kW. The holdback has been a reliable head, and Eagle has just released the latest eVa® head, version 10.5. They have been perfecting ultrahigh output power for years and have the most reliable cutting head today. Higher power means faster cutting and thicker cutting (up to 60mm).

2.           FASTEST DYNAMICS: The Eagle iNspire® machine will move 13,780 ipm between cuts. Dizzyingly fast. No one is faster. The top speed while holding cut path accuracy of 0.05mm is 5,900 ipm.

But speed is meaningless on a laser without acceleration. Eagle has 6g acc/dec. Other machines operate at 1 to 2g, with a few hitting 3g. Every time you double the Gs you cut the time and distance to reach any speed in half. This machine is incredibly quick due to its’ ideal design: carbon fiber bridge, polymer granite base, center of gravity drive mechanism placement, linear motors on all axes, ultrafast digital drives, and absolute optical encoder feedback.

3.           QUICKEST MATERIAL HANDLING –A machine this fast cuts a full sheet or plate in no time, thereby requiring 6 to 10 sheet changes per hour. Hydraulic pallet changers will exchange a sheet in 30 to 60 seconds, but Eagle’s servo driven system does it in just 9 seconds.

Eagle also has full material storage automation, which will be necessary for high production work.

Eagle understands the importance of uptime. The machine has reliability built in by using only the best components such as Renishaw, Festo, IPG Photonics, Nord, Beckhoff, Hiwin, and many other industry-leading suppliers with US parts and service. And every Eagle comes standard with at 2 year warranty, next-day service tech guarantee, and many other advantages.
