1-axis machining machine LaserTurn1

cuttinglaserdirect-drive

The LaserTurn®1 cylindrical laser machining system supports material from 0.1 mm to 7.9 mm in diameter, making it an ideal platform for the manufacture of cardiovascular and neural stents. The system can be configured for wet or dry cutting and includes options for material advance and bushing alignment platforms. The integrated linear-rotary system combines automated material handling functionality with high performance direct-drive linear and rotary motion. • High integration linear/rotary motion platform • Pneumatically-actuated collet closer supports 0.1 mm to 7.9 mm O.D. materials with frictionless rotary union • Clear aperture for product feed-through • Standard front and rear tooling platforms • Configure for wet or dry cutting Integral Tooling Platform The LaserTurn1 includes standard front and rear tooling platforms with M4 mounting features. The tooling platforms are bolted directly to the base of the linear stage providing a stiff, monolithic, common inertial frame of reference. Fixtures such as bushing alignment assemblies, part collection, or automated material advance functions can be attached easily. Automated Material Handling The LaserTurn1 is a complete motion and material handling subsystem. The system includes an automated, pneumatically activated Type D collet closer. The collet closer has a clear aperture for product feed through and can support tubing diameters from 0.1 mm (0.0039 in) to 7.9 mm (0.3125 in) in dry cutting applications and up to 3 mm (0.118 in) when configured for wet cutting operation.
