Series of Intuitive AI-Enabled Fiber Lasers Can Be Used by Operators of All Skill Levels
MC Machinery (Elk Grove Village, IL), a subsidiary of the Mitsubishi Corp. that supplies and services Mitsubishi Electric lasers and automation systems, announces the release of the GX-F ADVANCED Series of artificial intelligence-enabled fiber lasers.
Posted: July 1, 2021
The series is one of the only laser systems in the industry with a single source for service and support. Due to its intuitive artificial intelligence (AI) technology, the series is easy to use for operators of all skill levels — especially valuable because of the ongoing shortage of skilled manufacturing workers.
What’s more, by integrating the most advanced gas reduction technology, the GX-F ADVANCED Series delivers more power while using up to 77 percent less nitrogen.
Among other features, the new lasers offer high processing stability with superior beam-quality consistency; beam cleaning and anti-reflection technologies, and no setup time between materials. Among the key features of the GX-F ADVANCED Series are: AI-assisted cutting; augmented reality with drop and cut, part rotation and rectangular nesting; and real-time tracking of electric and assist gas consumption.
To significantly reduce setup time, the Mitsubishi zoom head delivers speed and flexibility by automatically changing the beam size, shape and focal point for each material, with the ability to process plates with a wide range of thicknesses. Piercing time is reduced by as much as 60 percent, making it possible to pierce a 25mm-thick mild steel within 0.8 seconds.
