100% increase in production?

Wouldn't we give anything for a tool that completes our job in half the time? eurolaser has just such a solution! Isn't it often the case that half of our time is lost with loading the laser system, aligning material, removing it after cutting and cleaning the machine? Not until this has been done does the system actually start working, and what does the operator do in this time? "Yes, exactly" you would reply! This is where we come into play. With our ingenious changeover system we have reduced the time between processes to 4 seconds. In other words double the production for 95% of all applications. The laser continues working while the operator gets the next table ready.

Your benefits at a glance:

  • Double the output
  • Atomisation of production
  • Half the personnel costs
  • Savings in energy costs
  • Setting up time of approx. 4 seconds
  • Immediate free access to the material

Due to increased availability the shuttle table system dispenses with the need for procuring a second laser system and of course the need for a second operator. Apart from reducing personnel costs this also saves space and energy. What is more, the shuttle table is accessible from three sides, which simplifies loading and unloading and also facilitates better exploitation of your production area during laser cutting. That really is a 100% increase in production!

PET/aluminium composite material in the laser test

Nowadays layered composite materials made of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and aluminium foils are not only used successfully in the packaging industry. In the meantime such composite materials are also to be found in photovoltaic and other high-tech applications.
Despite its aluminium foil, composite packaging can be cut or scored easily, accurately and cleanly using laser. Product and packaging designers as well as the food industry with small batch production runs are today exploiting these benefits. Trial offers or changing product batches demand flexibility. On the other hand packaging technologies require precision and ease of use for the consumers. Is there anyone who has not been annoyed at some time or other when the ring on the pull-tab comes off in your hand the very first time you try it?
