LPKF has enhanced the performance of the proven and popular LPKF CuttingMaster depaneling system even more with a newly developed laser source. Initial applications demonstrate a significantly higher cutting speed and, as a result, an up to 25% higher output. For users, this yields a whole new dimension for improving efficiency in this price-to-performance range. It gives PCB manufacturers the full advantages of laser technology for the price of a milling machine. The new system variant (…)

If you are working on machining aeronautical, medical or energy parts, you may be facing machinability problems with refractory materials, particularly with nickel alloys, titanium or stainless steel. These materials represent a challenge for your productivity because they require high cutting forces; their thermal conductivity is very low and their hardness remains high even at elevated temperatures. You are probably looking for solutions to increase your cutting speeds and improve the life (…)

After the suspension of last year’s event, AMB - International exhibition for metal working will get back into its regular cycle and take place again at the Stuttgart trade fair centre from 13 - 17 Sep 2022. All major exhibitors from the metal working and processing industry will present their innovations and further developments to the interested professional visitors over five trade fair days. "We’re really excited to finally be able to stage trade fairs again”, explains Gunnar Mey, (…)

Promoted by CECIMO, the European Association of Machine Tool Industries, and organised by the operational structures of UCIMU-SISTEMI PER PRODURRE, the Italian machine tools, robots and automation systems manufacturers’ association, EMO MILANO 2021, the leading world exhibition for metalworking industry, will take place at fieramilano Rho from 4 to 9 October, when the recovery of investment should already have started. Metal forming and metal cutting machine tools, production systems, (…)

The laser offers tremendous potential as a noncontact tool for manifold applications in the automotive industry. For PCB depaneling for the industry, use of laser technology promises high quality, flexibility, and cost efficiency. Nearly everywhere you look in a vehicle, you’ll find printed circuit boards: in the onboard electronics and sensors, in the lighting system, in previously purely mechanical systems such as seat or mirror adjusters, and in many other in-vehicle applications. (…)

Seals, filters, fluid reservoirs, carriers for special adhesive tapes: Thanks to special material properties, INDUCON brand foams are used in a wide variety of products and industries around the world. Extensive tests in the eurolaser application laboratory have shown that laser systems are far superior to all other cutting technologies in every aspect when it comes to the packaging of materials. As precise as foam can be processed with traditional technologies, cutting alone rarely gets (…)

Leading laser manufacturer Luxinar has launched the OEM 100iX sealed CO2 laser source for industrial processing applications. With a power range of 50-1000W and a wavelength of 10.6m, the new OEM 100iX from Luxinar is an extension to the company’s OEM series using the same proven RF-excited slab laser design. The laser source provides higher speeds and increased productivity for processes such as high volume cutting, kiss cutting, scoring, multi-ply cutting and die board cutting for the (…)
