FEATURES
Auto focus. C Axis

cnc control
The CNC control manages the head height to accommodate changes in the height of the material during cutting. It is integrated into the Z axis and is signaled by a non contact sensor.

dual drive x axis

High precision rack and gear servo drives on each side of the table ensure rigid control of motion in all directions. Acceleration and deceleration forces are precisely controlled by this method.
The precision linear guides provide long life, low friction and high speed operation.


Load and Unload Dual Table / Shuttle

The Load/ Unload table lets the operator safely load or unload another sheet while cutting is in progress.
Pneumatic clamps locate and secure the sheet in position.

hydraulic bumpers

Hydraulic Bumpers on Table Travel

Hydraulic bumpers cushion possible crashes or shocks when the drives run X or Y to the limits.
These also protect the lens from damage.

 


CNC Controls

We offer a choice of controls so that you can apply a CNC that is already familiar to your operators. These are some of the choices. Fanuc, Fagor or Siemens. These feature 32 bits processor, graphics display, RS232 and 485 data ports. On board diagnostics helps when trouble shooting.

PRC LASER
CO2  Industrial Laser by PRC of Landing New Jersey.
The PRC Laser system is integrated by their technicians as part of our turn key package.
You can choose from 1500 to 7000 watts of power.

Features of the PRC system
The PRC product line consists of Fast-Axial Flow, DC Excited, CO2 lasers with power levels from 1000-8000 Watts. Also offered is a wide variety of enclosures and control interface options, including an interface card that installs into an ISA slot of any Windows PC.

PRC lasers are engineered to operate 24-Hours a day, seven days a week for months at a time, making them the perfect choice for demanding three-shift applications! PRC lasers can be found at the heart of a wide variety of applications.
PRC Features:

  • PRC's patented oil and maintenance free, TURBOFLOW®; compressor.
  • Long optic life.
  • Microprocessor based controls with built in diagnostic routines
  • Unmatched pulsing performance
  • Reliable and efficient DC Excitation
  • Continuous operation capability
  • 24-Hour technical support

Operating Modes
PRC Lasers offer three distinct pulse modes in addition to Continuous Wave. The different pulse modes can provide processing advantages when piercing, cutting or welding various materials. The ultra-fast response of our high-voltage section provides the sharpest pulsing wave forms available.

 



turbine compressor

Turbine Compressor

PRC's patented TURBOFLOW® compressor is an oil-free, low-speed turbine designed specifically for use in industrial lasers. Elimination of the oil bath and gear boxes associated with many fast flow lasers helps PRC lasers provide the industry's longest optic lifetime, and allows our resonator electrodes and glass to last the life of the laser.

Permanently lubricated ceramic bearings, and an absence of rotating shaft seals ensure the turbine itself a long service life with virtually no maintenance.

Optical Configurations:
Every laser design has a unique optical cavity that provides a different power distribution within the laser beam it generates. This power distribution is known as the laser's "Beam Mode".
The PRC product line offers three different beam modes of selectable diameters and propagations.

TEM 00 Mode
(Gaussian Beam)
1000-3000 Watts

"D" Mode
(Dimodal Beam)
1000-4000 Watts

"Q" Mode
(Quadramodal Beam)
2500-6000 Watts

Different modes may provide advantages for certain applications. For example a TEM 00 mode laser will provide deeper penetration welding with a thinner weld bead, while a D mode would provide a slightly wider weld bead. Contact a PRC applications expert to determine which mode and power level is best for your application.
