The C-203 with 3-axis is Synova’s most cost-effective C-Series machine. It delivers high-precision performance for cutting, drilling, grooving, slicing, slotting, and other processing tasks. Well-suited for a wide range of industrial applications, the C-203 is an ideal solution for versatile and precise machining needs.
Built on a dedicated CNC platform distinct from Synova's S-Series, the C-Series models are powered by the LMJ technology, which includes the following core components:
- An advanced optical head with a micro-coupling unit,
- A high-power laser source,
- An efficient water pump, and
- A water treatment system.
Materials
Hard materials: Polycrystalline CBN (PcBN), polycrystalline diamond (PCD), monocrystalline diamond (MCD), chemical-vapor-deposition (CVD) diamond, natural diamond (ND), tungsten carbide (WC)
Metals: Stainless steel, gold, Durnico, CuBe, copper, brass, aluminium, shape-memory alloys (Nitinol), titanium, nickel, superalloys etc.
Ceramics: Ceramic-matrix composites (CMCs), silicon carbide (SiC), silicon nitride (SiN), zirconia (ZrO2), HTCC/ LTCC, aluminium nitride (AlN), aluminium oxide (Al2O3)
Operations
3-axis machine: 2D cutting, drilling, slicing, grooving
Key Benefits

- Cylindrical beam resulting in parallel kerfs (no V-shape)
- Smooth cutting surfaces and sharp edges (Ra as low as 0.15 μm)
- Virtually no heat impact thanks to water jet cooling capability
- Fast and Accurate
- Finish cutting of 1.6 mm PCD and cemented carbide in 5 mm/min.
- High mechanical precision with a tolerance of +/- 3 μm
- Very small kerf width (down to 30 μm)
- Clean and Easy
- Clean surfaces, no depositions or burrs
- No or very little post treatment required
- No laser focusing or distance control required
