The TruLaser Center 7030 – leaves behind the fundamental principle of laser processing

In contrast to traditional 2D laser processing machines, on the TruLaser Center 7030 both the cutting head and the sheet metal move. The additional axis on the cutting head enables the machine to achieve first-rate cutting dynamics. This means that you can cut corners and complex contours at high speeds. This highly dynamic combination makes full use of the high feed rates of the solid-state laser.

The SmartGate discharges small parts into up to eight containers. Punching slugs and scrap fall into a slag cart. The intelligent SmartGate control and sensor system ensure that the part removal process causes minimal disruption to the cutting process.  It is your key for maximum throughput.

The SortMaster Speed perfectly stacks parts at lightning speed onto up to eight pallets. As soon as the SortMaster Speed takes the part, the machine continues cutting. The parts are transported to the deposit position parallel to production, which minimises the disruption to the process.

The SmartGate forms the heart of the machine. Together with the brush tables, the SmartGate prevents tilting and unwanted welding of parts. The intelligent support moves along with the cutting head, thus offering comprehensive part support. The ejector cylinder automatically finds the best point for every part geometry to push the part out of the scrap skeleton. In the process, the part is fixed between the ejector cylinder and SmartGate and removed downward from the scrap skeleton in a guided movement. The SmartGate then opens and a sorting flap transports the part into one of the containers without affecting process reliability.

Stacking onto pallets also runs smoothly. The dream team comprising SmartLift and SortMaster Speed is currently the fastest and most flexible automation solution in the market. The cut parts are pressed against the suction plate from below by the SmartLift pins, which can be positioned with flexibility. At the same time, the suction plate of the SortMaster Speed fixes the part from above. Fixed in this way, the part is taken out of the scrap skeleton by a synchronous lifting movement. As such, the part is securely held and cannot tilt in the hole. The SortMaster Speed suction cups provide the required flexibility – with a diameter of 9 mm, they can hold and stack even intricate parts.

The TruTops Boost programming system creates a proposal not only for the cutting, but also for the removal, sorting and depositing of your parts. In doing so, it even takes physical principles into consideration. For example, how the part can best be pushed out of the scrap skeleton to eliminate any chance of it tilting. This technique cannot be found anywhere else in the world.

Using a sorting flap, finished parts are reliably separated from scrap. Because it can tell a finished part from scrap. The SortMaster Box Linear sorting unit distributes small parts into up to eight containers parallel to production. The containers are assigned intelligently by the software program.

This processing cell also works reliably in unattended shifts. The user-efficient machine loads and unloads independently and announces when the operator is needed again. Because of this, the operator can plan their work at the machine better and ahead of time. Waiting times, manual sorting and reworking are no longer required. The Touchpoint user interface also enables an intuitive dialogue with the machine.

To put the TruLaser Center 7030's enormous productivity to optimum use, connect it to a store. Different versions of material feed and part removal give you the freedom that your shop floor needs.
