BLM GROUP demonstrated its LS7 Sheet Laser at FABTECH 2024. Newly available with 20-kW capacity, this sheet laser enables high-quality cuts at higher speeds for increased productivity.
Highlights of the demonstration included the use of a variety of assist gases for cutting multiple materials and patterns, including:
- 5” stainless steel
- 3-gauge mild steel
- 7-gauge mild steel
- 10-gauge mild steel
About the LS7: The LS7 Sheet Laser has an axis acceleration of up to 2g to optimize processing cycles and minimize downtime. A 9-second pallet change vastly increases productivity, while fully electric material handling improves energy usage.
Patented Active Tools automatically adapt process parameters for high cutting precision and speed — independent of operator experience. An Active Nozzle change feature automatically monitors the wear of the cutting nozzle and exchanges it as necessary.
The LS7 3015 model handles a maximum sheet size of 121.5” x 62” and the 4020 handles sheet up to 162.5″ x 79.5″. Users can configure the accessory cell to best accommodate their floorspace and select laser power ranging from 3 to 20 kW.
