Flexible laser-punch combination

Flexible laser-punch combination

The Strippit LP-1225 laser-punch combination system is available as a cost-effective standalone combined laser and punching machine or as part of an integrated automated pick-sort system. Capable of punching, forming, tapping and laser cutting, the LP-1225 provides the ultimate in flexibility. Equipped with a low noise/scratch sensitive brush bed system, the machine is ideal for processing lighter gauge components. A combination of LVD’s latest hydraulic punch press and Fanuc’s fast axial flow CO2 laser technology, the LP-1225 is presented within an integrated Fanuc-GE laser source, motor drive and control package. The 1,250 by 2,500 mm maximum sheet size capacity, 20 ton programmable hydraulic press drive, and 6.35 mm maximum material thickness. Integrating the Strippit LP-1225 with LVD’s Pick-Sort robotic material and part handling system transforms the machine into a ‘lights out’ punch/laser processing cell, requiring only minimal operator supervision. Pick-Sort further enhances the system’s efficiency and value adding capability.
