Latest laser tube cutting system demonstrated

At the BLM GROUP UK's Open House, the company will demonstrate its Adige LT 722D Lasertube CNC laser tube cutting/profiling machine offering up to 30% productivity increase.

BLM GROUP UK will be staging an Open House on September 22-26, 2008, to show and demonstrate its latest tube laser cutting and profiling system.

The eighth-generation Adige LT 722D Lasertube offers up to 30% productivity increase when compared with the previous model, said BLM.

Whether the decision is to move on from the traditional multi-machine approach or simply to upgrade, the rewards of single-cycle CNC tube laser processing have been shown to be far-reaching and substantial, said BLM.

The company said that the greater the complexity of the component, the greater the benefits.

* Prototypes and redesigns, for example, can be completed in minutes rather than days, because it calls for reprogramming rather than producing hard tooling.

* Cycle time and direct labour savings result, too, whether from consolidating separate production operations into a single, non-contact, process - eliminating cumulative errors and having a positive impact on subsequent welding, assembly and inspection times - or from the ever-increasing speed, flexibility and overall productivity of the latest Adige Lasertube machines.

Demonstrations of the LT 722D will take place between 10 am and 5 pm on each of the five days, with refreshments available.
