The WebPro Series of digital laser cutting systems are rapidly re-configured for changing job requirements and are workable for short run jobs in many sizes and materials. The AcuBeam control system operates in a user-friendly Windows XP environment, allowing the user to control the entire system. As a result, changeovers are as simple as opening a file without the need or costs of tooling, the company says.

This unique system allows the user to laser process web widths from 25.4mm to 304.8mm (1"-12") at high production rates. The motion design processes materials at speeds 9.14m – 60.96m (30 – 200 feet) per minute, while maintaining consistent PLI across the entire process. Typical accuracies range from ±.076mm – .254mm (.003" – .010") based on part size and geometry. Many options are available (dual rewinds, splice table, etc.) based on the user’s particular application needs.

The WebPro incorporates 200, 300, 400 or 600 watt CO2 lasers with 9.2 to 10.6 wavelengths, as well as UV lasers. These lasers offer a reliable, precise beam for clean and sharp laser-processed edges.
