The Mazak Optiplex is a Flying Optics, 2D laser cutting machine equipped with intelligent functions for reduced set-up time including a high-speed pallet changer.
Benefits of the Mazak Optiplex
- High performance, low operating costs and a wide range of applications, offers job shops a real competitive edge.
- High Speed Pallet Changer (19 seconds!) that is 58% faster than previous models
- Features the new Preview 2 control with touch screen automatically determines the required lens, nozzle, feedrate and laser output for different materials and thicknesses.
- The new Type 10 resonator with ECO mode reduces operating costs (gas and air) by up to 50%.
- Fully automated and optimized (AO) 5 point setup enables optimized cutting even during extended unattended operation. It helps reduce operator dependency
Automated setup helps you run optimized for increased productivity
Typically, laser operations that accommodate varied workpiece materials and thicknesses are automated by compromising cutting parameters such as nozzle diameters and condition. This can significantly effect the productivity and cost of operation especially with today’s focus on smaller batch sizes. Mazak has developed a series of automated setup functions called AO│5 that enable optimized cutting even during extended unattended operation.
New Preview 2 CNC with touch screen simplifies operation
The MAZATROL Preview 2 CNC automatically determines the cutting speed and acceleration from each point to the next from the program contour. This CNC system makes it possible to achieve ultra high speed together with high precision cutting.
Benefits of the Preview 2 Control
- Graphical interface clearly visualizes your cutting path.
- Automatic determination of processing conditions including the required lens, nozzle, feedrate and laser output for different materials and thicknesses.
Ergonomic design facilitates ease of use.
- 15” Touch screen simplifies operation
- Swiveling panel with height adjustment
- Ergonomic layout with few buttons/dials
Intelligent functions help to reduce pierce times and maintains cut performance
- Pierce Detection Senses the beam reflection until it pierces and then automatically moves to the cutting segment of the program.
- Burning Detection Senses beam reflection when self burning occurs either slowing down or, when not effective, stopping the process.
- Plasma Detection Senses plasma when ineffective stainless or aluminium cutting occurs slowing down the process until plasma is reduced.
Exclusive Mazak Optiplex design gives you more power at the torch
Exclusive constant-beam delivery system
The U axis design compensates for table axis movements to deliver consistent beam power anywhere on the table for more stable cutting conditions and better accuracy.
6 External mirrors
Utilizing 5 fewer mirrors than previous designs significantly increases the power to the torch. All the mirrors are water cooled.
Mazak Optiplex with new Type 10 Resonator reduces operating costs
New Type 10 Resonator with Eco Mode
- Electricity used for the laser resonator during cutting operation 42kW (reduced 5%)
- Standby electricity used for Laser resonator is 16kW (Standby MODE)/ 0.8kW (ECO MODE) (stops blower operation automatically during standby)
- 50% Reduction in laser gas consumption to 15L/hr
- 43% Reduction in air consumption to 500L/min
Multi-damper zone (4) dust collection system reduces required capacities and operating costs
