Laser cutting has important advantages for sailmakers who can cut Dacron by cauterizing the edges of the panels, it also allows you to cut very difficult materials and to keep the scissors very close to each other, with a significant saving of material. However, it is necessary to take into account an objective greater complexity of managing the machine compared to blade cutting, in terms of fumes to be disposed of correctly and training of personnel in the danger of the system if correct operating procedures are not followed.
The laser version of the Bravearm-MMX architecture was first built in version Laser + Lama, overcoming some difficulties inherent in the incompatibility of the two cutting systems.
Based on the customer's actual use, that in the end he preferred to cut all the sailing material with the laser, we have designed a lighter and more compact plotter-cutter equipped with laser only, that enhanced the high cutting speed of light Spinnaker fabrics while retaining the power for more difficult materials such as Kevlar or Dyneema.
Our laser cutter uses glass CO2 laser tubes of the best brand in the world, with exceptional power and durability, easy to maintain and cool, that does not need the very tight specifications of radiofrequency excited lasers and their expensive and delicate power supplies.
During the installation of the laser system we provide to train the customer on the adjustment and calibration of the mirrors, which must be performed from time to time.
When, after 3-4 years of work you will have to replace the laser tube, as is the case with all types of lasers, the expense will be very low and the assembly very simple.
The entire casing of the Laser cutter is made of aluminum entirely closed for safety, with all the necessary protection systems, safety glasses included.
We also supply the fume extraction system,
Italian and also certified CE .
