Laser Cutting of Polished Stainless, Aluminum, Brass and Copper at Full Power

High performance light sources from nLIGHT, Inc. (Vancouver, WA) are now available with CL 900 series fiber laser cutting systems from Cincinnati Incorporated (CI; Harrison, OH) to provide job shops and OEMs with the ability to cut reflective “red” metals. The 8 kW nLIGHT alta fiber laser powers an array of industrial cutting applications. Proprietary back reflection technology allows cutting of even the most reflective metals, including polished stainless, aluminum, brass and copper, at full power and stability. Incredibly reliable and designed to be serviced onsite, the nLIGHT alta family of fiber lasers delivers maximum uptime and withstands harsh environments. “These light sources are a huge step forward in fiber optic laser cutting technology,” said Troy Wilson, the product manager for cutting products at Cincinnati Incorporated. “Red metal cutting is historically difficult due to reflection that causes most systems to shut down. Systems with the nLIGHT technology are able to absorb the reflection and continue running with no error messages or operator intervention.”
