Laser Mechanisms’ FiberCUT® STa laser processing head collimates and focuses a fiber-delivered laser beam and directs it, along with cutting gas, through its nozzle for optimal metal cutting. The head features programmable focus position adjustment which delivers exacting cutting in materials with varying thickness and fastest possible piercing. FiberCUT® STa’s nozzle also senses the required tip standoff from the workpiece and automatically maintains that standoff through its internal drive system.
