Laser bevel head for bevel cuts up to 45°

• Simple V- and X-bevels as well as complex Y- or K-bevels up to 45° with micro joints
• Clean and efficient weld edge preparation up to 45°
• Additional Beveling Process (ABP) – simple and reliable subsequent weld edge preparation via a laser scanning process
• Easy programming thanks to intuitive software solution
• Non-contact distance control for consistent nozzle distances and optimum cutting quality

High economic efficiency

• 2/3 lower power consumption and higher cutting speeds (compared to CO2 laser of the same power)
• The complete machine is nearly maintenance-free
• No laser gases necessary
• Extremely small footprint
• No warm-up time, after switching on immediately ready to work

Calibration station with ACTG® unit integrated into the gantry

In case MSF Max is equipped with a laser bevel head, the system comes with the ACTG® unit and auto-calibration feature by default. Unlike in other MicroStep machines, the unit is integrated directly into the gantry in a combined calibration station that is ejected during the calibration process. The station contains also a pad for calibration of the capacitive height sensor in the cutting head and a nozzle cleaning system consisting of a camera and a wiping brush.

Mobile safety cabin

In conventional laser cutting machines, the entire machine is enclosed in a fixed housing. By contrast, the MSF Max, to accommodate its unconventional work areas, uses a mobile safety cabin shielding the fiber laser technology during the cutting process. The mobile cabin moves on its own guidelines and can reach the entire work area of the machine. This enables safe operation along with easy control of the machine.

Extremely high reliability even in three-shift production

MicroStep systems are designed for a long machine life – sometimes even under tough environmental conditions. The resulting extremely high reliability is also supported by a very well structured service. As a result, this enables stable production processes in manufacturing.

Ergonomic and uncomplicated: The iMSNC® control system

Apart from the externally positioned control console with ergonomic 24″ touch screen display, the system has additional control consoles on the gantry bridge. This allows the operator to easily interrupt a cutting program, move the machine manually, enter a new sheet or quickly perform a manual cut.

Remote Diagnostics

With iMSNC® and numerous remote maintenance modules, MicroStep offers the best foundation for fast and competent help via remote dialin. Nearly all electronic components can be evaluated and diagnosed using MicroStep’s software. Thus, in more than 90 percent of all cases, machine downtime can be remedied quickly and easily without the need of a service technician on site.

Training & expert support: Guarantee for high machine availability

To get the maximum efficiency out of your cutting system, perfectly trained operating personnel is essential. They ensure considerably higher machine availability, as they can react flexibly to constantly changing cutting tasks with their sound knowledge. Good training of your employees thus pays for itself after a short time. Therefore we offer you a customized, practice-oriented training program when purchasing a MicroStep cutting system. And of course also after the purchase, we are at your side with our first-class service & support network if required.
