SINGLE-SYSTEM MOTION PLATFORM

LaserLathe is a completely integrated single system motion platform for automated production operation in laser stent cutting.


LaserLathe is a completely integrated single system motion platform for automated production operation in laser stent cutting.

Ideal for high-throughput precision positioning and indexing small diameter tubular and cylindrical components, LaserLathe integrates several application-specific components including linear and rotary positioning mechanisms. A variety of workpiece holding devices, the powerful servo drives, and a userfriendly, feature-packed control system delivers higher productivity and lower maintenance along with precision.

Built with a dedicated two-axis mechanical motion platform, the LaserLathe integrates a linear X-axis and rotary motion. Both positioning systems utilize direct-drive, brushless servomotors with non-contacting, high-resolution encoders for smooth motion and precise positioning. The linear axis is equipped with a servo ironcore motor. The higher force and thermal robustness of the ironcore motor achieve a constantly high resolution on both axes with minimal path error for superb industrial-strength performance 24/7.

LaserLathe accommodates a large selection of collet styles, brands and sizes as well as 3- and 4-jaw chucks and custom chucks. In addition, since the LaserLathe has a minimal collet clamping force that is infinitely adjustable to monitor smaller than nominal diameters, there is no damage or degrading of the tubing stock.

Additionally, a Concealed Linear Seal(CLS) for the LaserLathe prevents exposure to debris.
