Bystronic Laser Cutting & Bending Machines

Bystronic Laser Cutting Machines

All Bystronic machines employ laser technology to process sheet metal. One of the ways that laser beams are created is by use of a transport fiber that transmits the laser beam to mirrors in the machine cutting head which then focus the beam into a very small diameter at high power.

As a result, the focused laser beam is very powerful and is able to melt sheet metal when it comes into contact with the metal.

Fiber laser cutting machines

In fiber laser cutting, the machine uses two fibers: an active fiber that generates the laser beam, and a transport fiber that transmits the beam to the machine cutting head. Although fiber lasers are much smaller than their CO2 laser counterparts, they are able to generate much more power from the same amount of current.

Fiber lasers are best suited for processing sheet metal made of steel, stainles steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals like copper and brass.

CO2 laser cutting machines

CO2 laser cutting machines use a carbon dioxide-based gas mixture to generate the laser beam. The gas mixture is electrically excited in order to create the actual laser beam. The beam is then guided to the actual material by optics.

CO2 laser cutting machines are an excellent all-around device for processing materials of different types and thicknesses.

Buying Bystronic laser cutting machines

Bystronic laser cutting machines are a significant investment, with costs for pre-owned units easily running into six figures. As such, you should have a deep understanding of your requirements to guarantee that the laser cutting machine will be able to solve your needs.
