Brief of Fiber metal cutting machine WATTSAN 1530 TABLECHANGE

Wattsan 1530 Tablechange laser machine — increase the working speed by 1.5 times

The WATTSAN 1530 TABLECHANGE laser machine works with stainless and carbon steel, copper, aluminum, titanium and other materials.

WATTSAN 1530 TABLECHANGE is equipped with an automatic exchange table. Exchange tables allows you to carry out continuous operation of the machine without wasting the running time on loading and unloading products. While a metal sheet is being cut on one table, the operator collects the finished products on the second table and prepares the next sheet. This saves time on the material loading and increases the efficiency of work by 1,5 times. This machine has long been used in aircraft construction, mechanical engineering, light industry and in the manufacture of medical equipment.

The machine is equipped with a solid-state laser emitter to choose from: Max/Raycus/IPG. All three types of emitters have a service life of about 100,000 hours. This gives more than 11 years of continuous operation.

The automatic exchange table has dimensions of 1500x3000 mm for metal sheet. The table is made with a safety margin, and a large weight dampens vibrations. For additional stability, vibration mounts can be installed.

  • FLYCUT technology allows you to determine the shortest and most efficient cutting trajectory enabling fast cutting of round and rectangular holes in sheet metal with thicknesses up to 1 mm. In this case the laser head works without lifting and lowering which ensures high speed of work and saves gas. This mode is suitable if you are manufacturing ventilation systems.

  • Prevents corners from melting and increases the quality of manufactured products due to the laser head looping at each corner and not stopping. The obtained corners are clear and even. RINGCUT function is suitable for working with thicker materials or for cutting products with multiple corners where precision is important, e.g. gears, monograms, souvenirs, etc.

  • Professional optimization of the arrangement of parts on the sheet suitable for the production of promotional products. NESTING function allows to lay out parts on the sheet as efficiently and as close to each other as possible so that there are no gaps. This allows saving material.

  • Allows to precisely determine the position of the sheet in the work area using three reference points. You can only put the material on the work area, specify its dimensions in the program and the machine will do everything itself. You do not need to put the material perfectly on the table.

  • It is used to insert micro-joints into the processing path so that the parts do not land on its side. In this case it is easy to remove the parts after cutting. This saves working head from colliding with parts during operation. This function allows producing small parts for promotional and souvenir products without losing them in the work area.

  • This mode allows to join lines that are close to each other, that is to join them so that the laser head does not cut in the same place. This function will greatly improve performance and reduce the operation time. This function is suitable for mass production, for example, while manufacturing workpieces, promotional and souvenir products, etc.

Metal cutters from Wattsan — forget about repairs and downtime

  • Table exchange

    Table exchange ensures continuous operation of the machine without wasting time for loading and unloading products. While a metal sheet is being cut on one table, the operator collects the finished products on the second table and prepares the next sheet. Thus, the exchange table allows you to speed up the production process by 1,5 times.

    Table exchange
  • Precise design

    In the process of designing the machine, various tests of static and dynamic loads were carried out to identify the maximum permissible deformations of the table and the bed in order to preserve the correct geometry of the structure. Due to the selected configuration, the maximum load on the table is increased by 800 kg of distributed weight. This allows processing materials up to 15 mm thick, with a 24/7 cutting accuracy of +-0.01 mm ,and ensures the durability of the bed up to 10 years.

    Precise design
  • Frame type for your tasks

    Thanks to the aluminum portal and the design precisely calculated by our engineers, the machine is completely insured against deformations and breakdowns. Depending on your tasks, Wattsan machines use portals of three types: 3rd generation aluminum portal, lightweight aluminum portal of ZL101A and GB/T17 standard, and aluminum portal with titanium for operation at speeds over 120 m/min.

    Frame type for your tasks
  • Rigidity and stability

    The S series machines have a full metal sheet welded bed with a cross section of 9-12 mm, which allows cutting metal up to 10 mm thick. Wattsan frames have state-of-the-art design with the main task to avoid vibration when working at design speeds and accelerations. The frame can be installed on vibration mounts or anchored to a 50 cm thick concrete cushion.

    Rigidity and stability
  • Double protection of the guides

    Wattsan machines are equipped with a special metal protection of the machine corrugated surface to further maintain the cleanliness of the sliding guides, saving time and money for replacing the dust cover.

    Double protection of the guides
  • Loading rollers

    Several ball bearings on the working table make it easier the sheet loading onto the table. The rollers can be mounted on the front, back or side of the machine as desired. The roller is lifted above the cutting table in such a way as to ensure optimal feeding. One of the most important advantages of this feeding system is the prevention of scratches on the material.

    Loading rollers

Firm frame structure of Wattsan machines

During the machine operation inertia of gentry motion is transferred to the frame which is subjected to significant loads. Therefore material and structure of the machine play a significant role in securing the machine against deformation and breakage.

  • In the process of designing the machine, all kinds of tests of static and dynamic loads were carried out to identify the maximum allowable deformations of the table and machine bed in order to maintain the correct geometry of the structure. Due to the selected design configuration, the maximum load on the table is increased by 800 kg of distributed weight. This allows you to process materials up to 15 mm thick, with a cut quality of +-0.01 mm and 24/7 and ensures the durability of the bed up to 10 years.

    Worktable can withstand heavy loads
  • Wattsan frames are designed according to the latest technology, their primary objective is to avoid vibration when operating at design speeds and accelerations. The frame is installed on vibration mounts or is anchored to a 50 cm thick concrete pad.

    No vibrations
  • All frames undergo multi-stage heat treatment within a day which results in less vibration during machine operation. This technology allows to release tension from metal and increase the machine’s service life from 10 years and more.

Ask questions

  • A fiber-optic laser is best suited for cutting metal, but a specially equipped CO2 laser with a high-power laser tube may also be suitable for this purpose. However, it should be borne in mind that the thickness of the metal for cutting with a CO2 laser is limited to 1.5 mm, while a fiber-optic laser is capable of cutting up to 25 mm.

  • The cost of an hour of laser cutting depends not only on the power of the laser machine and the speed of its operation, but also on a number of other factors, such as: the professional skills of the machine operator, the cost of renting a production room, the cost and consumption of electricity, the cost of the material itself, the amount of scrap and downtime of the machine, and much more. In order to unambiguously answer the question about the cost of an hour of laser cutting, it is necessary to take into account all these parameters.

  • A focused laser beam is applied to the metal surface, as a result of which it melts, the molten material is blown out of the cutting zone with the help of an auxiliary gas.

  • The power of the laser emitter depends on the thickness of the material being processed and the desired processing speed. For example, a 1 kW emitter will cut 1 mm thick stainless steel at a speed of 13 m/min, and a 3 kW emitter will cut the same material at a speed of about 35 m/min. Here everything depends on the budget and the expediency of using the maximum possible capacity. Although it can be said that in today's competitive realities it does not make sense to buy a laser machine with a power of less than 1 kW.
