Intensified light beam.


I deal with a 6 KW laser all day long in my shop. We cut metals with it.

No kidding, so does my father, he runs a Trumpf laser at a metal fabricating company, not sure what the wattage is.

Ours is a Trumpf 5040 with RotoLas (so we can cut pipe and tube also) and Liftmaster. Self loading and unloading lights out..... it'll run all weekend.

Yeah I know the one my dad runs has a Liftmaster on it to, I'll have to ask him exactly which model the Trumpf laser is.  He's been to their HQ in Connecticut a couple years ago to take some classes.  Unfortunately with the down turn in the economy he hasn't been working the hours he use to there, he us to work from 6-4:30 P.M & Saturdays 6-11 A.M, but for the last year they've only been working 7-3:30 and no Saturday, so it's been pretty tough financially, but their starting to get busy again, this week they went back to a 6 o'clock start.

Don't know what happens if you point one of those laser pointers at a TV but I do know what happens when you point one at a crack head.

Do you think we could get a crack head to chase this laser like a cat? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ly1uubccl8)

I found a new shotgun I really want, It is a 12 guage, on an AK-47 frame, 25 round mag.  THat would be worth putting a rail system with a lazer and a Tact flashlight on it.

I have a couple MAZAK's HTX's with auto load and stock bins, but i am wondering if the mazak will out run the trumpf's IPM.?

Yeah my dad said the Trumpf he runs is a 4 KW 3030, he said that your 5040 must be a newer model.  He said that he's never run one with RotoLas because they don't cut pipe, but his also is self loading & runs lights out.

Those machines are expensive, he said they paid a million for the one he runs 9 years ago.

Might be thinkion' of the Saiga 12's

As for the laser...one of my shotguns is a tacticool...it's got a bunch of goodies, tac light, laser, maybe puttin a bayonet on for show. :P

We paid 1.4 mil for the first HTX and the auto loader and 60k stock bins and 900k for the second HTX, they inline and use the same loader,stock bins and finish table. Also have a Amada but its a old 98 model.

This was made on the Mazak Space Gear tube laser that we made when i went to Chi town for school last year. Sorry litte out of focus.

Yeah my dads made some really cool stuff like that on his laser, I have a really nice Indy type race car he made, he also made this really cool T-Rex that you built yourself, it was like a wooden model you'd buy where you break off each piece then assemble it.

They are much more efficient than they were 9 years ago. We bought ours when we built our new facility in 2008. This machine will put you out about 1.3 mil if you can swing a good deal. Not including shipping or installation. The beds on it will handle sheet/plate to 158" x 79".
Early last year we also had a bulk nitorgen tank with a trifecta system installed out back. We cut and etch all types of metals. We have also cut wood for a couple of countertop/furniture manufacturers.

The 5040 is rated up to around 2000 IPM cutting and almost 12000 IPM positioning.

Flying optics machine traverse rate is faster but cut speeds are pretty much the same. Although i have run into things at 5000 Ipm i would hate to see what happens at 12000 IPM. You do the programming or just operation?

so a shotgun with a 25 round mag.. and you need a "lazer" on it?

Im pretty sure even Ray Charles could hit what he wanted with such a weapon with no need for a laser.


that's like rubbing poison on the tip of a 2000 pound bomb.

Up to 2000 IPM cutting and 12000 IPM positioning. We cut up to 1 1/2 inch thick.

We do all our own programming and nesting.

We replace the slats on the table about once every 6 months. Easy enough as the laser cuts new slats.
