Optiplex 3015 High Speed Laser Cutting Service

ADVANCED LASER TECHNOLOGY

Intelligent functions for reduced setup time, a general laser machine will take a total of 26 minutes from nozzle changing to profiling whereas the Optiplex 3015 laser machine take a total of 3 minutes, giving it an 88% reduction in setting up times.

Preventative function avoid unexpected machine down time, minimize time consuming preparation, setup changes and extended automatic operation time. All of these factors contribute to considerably higher productivity.

• Intelligent Torch Changer – Torch changes can be done automatically within the laser cutting program. Automatically change from cutting torch to piercing torchor spare torch for continous automatic operation. This system is patented.
• Intelligent Nozzle Changer – Nozzle changes can be done automatically within the program. Automatically change to optimum or spare nozzle for continuous automatic operation. This system is patented.
• Intelligent Auto Focal Distance Measurement and Adjustment – Traditional focal distance measurement and adjustment requires considerable setup time as well as skilled and experienced laser operators. Our skilled and experienced laser operators can now easily perform these operations by using the Intelligent Auto Focal distance measurement and adjustment system by program commands.  Additionally, this system automatically compensated for focal distance changes which occur due to lens contamination.  This system has a patent pending.
• Auto Profiler Function – this is standard on the Optiplex 3015.
• High Speed Pallet Changer – Pallet changing time is more than 58% faster than previous laser machine models. Torch changing and nozzle changing can be performed simultaneously with changing the pallet to further minimize machine non-cutting time. 

HIGHER PRODUCTIVITY

The Optiplex 3015 has considerable time reduction for cutting medium to thick sheets. The new servo system automatically sets the optimum focal point by program command, there is currently a patent pending on this system. The time comparison for normal piercing of a Mild Steel with 16mm thickness, size 3000×1500 with 375 holes would be 4hrs and 40 minutes from piercing to cutting whereas the Optiplex 3015 only takes 2 hours and 20 mins, thus saving alot of time. 

• Mazak High Accuracy Lens and Mazak High Accuracy Nozzle – Focal point adjustment and nozzle centering of new nozzles are no longer required – resulting in higher productivity.  These units are machined with high precision and are self centered once they are mounted on the torch.
• Intelligent Monitoring System – This maintains optimum processing.
• Reduced Time Required for Piercing using intelligent Piercing Sensor – Normally, it is quite difficult to stabilize piercing operations for medium/thick worksheets resulting in piercing problems.  The intelligent piercing sensor detects when the laser beam pierces the material and completes hole piercing.  This function ensures continuous piercing operation resulting in the minimum piercing time.
• Cutting Failure Prevention – Intelligent Burning Sensor – Normally burning generated during the cutting of medium/thick mild steel worksheets often results in failure.  The Intelligent burning sensor monitors for abnormal burning during processing and automatically stops cutting if any is detected.
• Cutting Failure Prevention – Intelligent Plasma Sensor – Plasma generated during cutting of medium/thick stainless steel worksheets frequently results in cutting failure that stops the laser machine operation.  The Intelligent plasma sensor monitors plasma generation during processing and makes automatic adjustments to maintain optimum conditions for consistent cutting quality.
• Safety – Intelligent Lens Monitoring System – If the torch lens becomes contaminated by dust, it could possibly be damaged.  The condition of the lens is monitored and if problem is detected, laser cutting will automatically stop.

HIGHER ACCURACY

The laser beam is directed from the laser resonator to the cutting torch using Mazak’s exclusive constant beam length delivery system.  Stable production is realised thanks to the constant beam length that provides uniform cutting performance anywhere on the table.  Generally, flying optics construction has the issue that the laser beam quality is not stable when the laser delivery distance changes.  As a result, cutting performance is not the same at different table locations.  The Optiplex 3015 is equipped with a U-axis in order to maintain constant laser beam delivery length for stable cutting in any position on the machine table.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

The environment and out impact on natural surroundings have always been an important concern for Yamazaki Mazak.  This is shown by all the factories in Japan where Mazak machine tools are produced are ISO 14001 certified, an international standard confirming that the operation of the production facilities does not adversely affect air, water of land.  Some of the Eco-Friendly Systems on this machine are:-

1. Dust Collection System with 4 Inlets, these are located under the machine table.
2. Reduction of Laser Gas
3. Reduction of Air

The Optiplex 3015 laser processing machine is produced in an underground factory incorporating the most advanced technology available for the production of laser machines.  The entire assembly area is a clean room which minimizes dust contamination of the beam delivery mirror and the torch lenses.  As a result, the time required for machine assembly is reduced.  Underground assembly area is at least 30 times cleaner than a conventional factory above ground.
