LCS 150

The LCS 150 is a versatile laser cutting system conceived for micro-machining applications, such as cutting, drilling or grooving for a variety of industrial sectors. Different laser sources are available for this machine, allowing up to 200 W. 

The machine uses linear X- and Y-motor axes in a cross table and the work piece is fixed on a M6-thread table. An optional B rotary axis can be mounted on the table allowing positioning 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. 

Materials

Hard materials: Polycrystalline CBN (PcBN), polycrystalline diamonds (PCD), monocrystalline diamonds (MCD), chemical-vapor-deposition (CVD) diamonds, natural diamond (ND), tungsten carbide (WC) 

Metals: Stainless steel, Durnico, CuBe, copper, brass, aluminum, shape-memory alloys (Nitinol), titanium, nickel, super alloys etc. 

Ceramic: Zirconia (ZrO2), LTCC (low-temperature co-fired ceramic), Aluminum-nitride (AlN), Aluminum-oxide (Al2O3) 

Operations

3-axis machine: 2D cutting, drilling, slicing, grooving, engraving 

Key Benefits

  • Sharp and Smooth
    • 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
    • Cutting of 1.6 mm PCD and cemented carbide in 5 mm/ min. No limit in thickness. 
    • High mechanical precision with a tolerance of less than +/- 3 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
