Main features
Laser
LC FO Standard fiber lasers represent some undeniable advantages compared to other types of lasers. First of all, the lasers do not require any maintenance as they are located in the entirely sealed body. This excludes any contamination and allows our customers to cut down costs on high-skilled service staff and consumables. Secondly, fiber lasers are the most reliable among the existing ones. Their operating lifetime exceeds a decade. Finally, an output emission of fiber laser has a high quality and stabile beam parameters. In addition to the above, the laser is ideal for cutting highly-reflecting materials, such as latten, aluminium, copper, galvanized and stainless steel, and making metal engraving.

Beam delivery
A beam is delivered by a fiber-optic path without mirrors minimizing an amount of necessary consumables. The fiber system is absolutely reliable; its lifetime can be compared to the laser itself.

Arrangement and design
Unimach® pays special attention to the arrangement and design of the equipment. All parts (laser unit, cooling unit, automation cabinet, etc.) are combined in one complex which leads to saving valuable meters of production facilities, perfect organizing of production operations and increasing reliability of the laser cutting machine. To provide additional comfort all external connections are carried out from one side. Edgy industrial design outlines the whole production process.

Machine bed
The machine bed is an all-welded structure with subsequent machining. It combines a high accuracy of production, rigidity, reliability and long life.

Smoke exhaust system
Standard equipment includes zoned smoke exhaust system.

Cooling system
LC Standard is equipped with the water / air cooling system (chiller) providing a perfect solution for machine cooling and reducing expenses for water consumption.

Gas supply system
It’s crucial to ensure that gas blowing of the cutting area maintains the constant pressure during metal cutting. We offer a perfect solution - pneumatic system of LC FO Standard which operates with the maximum pressure of 20 atm. Such pressure is ideal for cutting nonferrous metals and reaching the highest quality of a cut edge. LC FO Standard can be optionally equipped with an automatic gas console with a CNC integrated interface which provides a remote control of gas inlets and gas pressure in the cutting area, and monitors the current system status. The console controls switching of a cutting gas type and sets its pressure automatically if materials are selected from the Library.

UniCut software
User-friendly and functional software plays a crucial role when operating the cutting machine. The software is an instrument which an Operator uses to control the machine, prepare and upload programs, provide settings of the modules.

 

Control operations from your workplace using one program
All control interfaces of the machine units are integrated in one program. All cutting machine modules can be controlled from one workplace to provide additional comfort.

Individual settings for laser piercing, engraving and cutting
Laser piercing, engraving and cutting modes can be set individually before the cutting process. There’s no need to stop the process in order to change or enter the new settings. Switching among the modes occurs automatically leading to higher production capacity of the cutting machine.

Laser power can be controlled depending on the speed
To reach higher quality of sharp and right angles laser power can be controlled automatically depending on the speed of the optical head. At the zero speed (at the moment of stop at the corner) output power equals to minimum power configured in the settings which prevents a corner’s burnout.

Library of materials
UniCut software includes the Library of materials, where a user can find recommended settings for particular materials or use a special function to create new ones.

Automatic program creation
UniCut software can help you to create a cutting program quickly and intuitively, in a few clicks. The program automatically detects nested contours and calculates the most optimal travels. This function is useful for small enterprises that are dealing both with small batches and a wide range of products.

User-friendly interface
Provide the settings quickly using our user-friendly graphic interface. Graphic data is easier to percept than endless lines of digits, it saves your time and makes workplace’s atmosphere more comfortable.

Maintenance timers
Software maintenance timers help to provide technical maintenance on schedule indicating time to replace consumables. The software automatically calculates working hours for the machine units and notifies an operator about the required service.

Production statistics
UniCut software automatically calculates time for workpiece processing, beneficial use of materials, number of parts. Software represents a function of cut-out parts calculator. Received data significantly simplify cost calculations, e.g., calculations for third-party orders, costing production.

Remote diagnostics
Remote diagnostics of system malfunction (through the Internet) makes it possible to reduce downtime of the machine and cut down off-site expenses concerned with wrong settings of the equipment.

Operator’s log
Working objectives can be assigned and controlled remotely from the operator’s workplace reducing paperwork and setting objectives through the network. That helps to organize working process more efficiently because systematization (materials, priority, product) is done automatically in this case.

Intuitive and user-friendly software
Simple and intuitive UniCut software saves time of staff training: a mid-level specialist can be quickly taught some basic operations with the machine. The work of mid-level specialist will cost less than a highly-skilled professional resulting in the lower product cost. Software also allows for monitoring and control of tracking system, cooling system, laser and log of module operation data. Free updates.
