The 3-axis S-303 is a precise and reliable laser cutting system capable of processing a wide variety of materials, from metals to ultra-hard and brittle materials such as diamond or ceramic, to complex composites. Applications include high precision machining of medical devices, tools, electronics and other high-tech parts.
The machine with a working area of 300 x 300 mm uses linear motor axes. The work piece is fixed on a T-Nut table. An optional B rotary axis can be mounted on the table allowing to position the work piece with a different rotation angle.
The state-of-the-art CNC machine system includes a high-power green laser, a compact high-pressure water pump with an ultra-pure water unit, a touch-screen control panel and a vision system with motorized zoom.
The automated offset calibration system integrates laser-nozzle alignment, jet angle correction, laser power measurement and jet stability control (all optional).

Key Benefits
- Sharp and Smooth
- Smooth cutting surfaces and sharp edges (Ra as low as 0.15 µm)
- Cylindrical beam resulting in parallel kerfs (no V-shape)
- Virtually no heat impact thanks to water jet cooling capability
- Fast and Accurate
- Cutting of 4 mm CVD diamond in 5 mm/min.
- High mechanical precision with a tolerance of less than +/- 5 µm
- Very small kerf width (down to 30 µm)
- Clean and Easy
- Clean surfaces and no depositions
- No or very little post treatment required
- No focus control necessary due to long working distance
