The Trumpf TruLaser Series 5000 flatbed laser machines can now cut through stainless steel up to 50mm thick and aluminium up to 25mm thick.
This capability is thanks to the introduction of the TruFlow 8000 CO2 laser, with 8kW of laser power. It is complemented by two further developments, the Trumpf mirror cutting head for enhanced process reliability and the BrightLine option that considerably enhances edge quality.
This 8kW solution is for those seeking an alternative to plasma or waterjet cutting and is suited to the production of laser cut blanks.
