The Lockformer Fiber Laser Elite Cutting System is the next evolution in speed, precision, and shop safety. Engineered specifically for the unique demands of sheet metal fabricators, the Fiber Laser Elite is the optimal system for producing HVAC duct fittings.
The Lockformer Fiber Laser Elite features an exclusive patented open architecture design. With no enclosure, operators can access cut parts directly from the table, streamlining the production process and entirely eliminating the need for pallet shuttle system. The innovative design also fosters interoperability with other machinery and equipment including the use of coil feed machines eliminating the need to load material by hand.
The open architecture system features a patented shroud design which ensures maximum safety for operators and surrounding personnel by eliminating any hazards within a controlled environment. The innovative design also elevates cutting precision and simplifies maintenance procedures.
The system operates completely on compressed air with a five zoned exhaust design which produces minimal exhaust. With this meticulous attention to operational safety, the Lockformer Fiber Laser Elite has set the industry standard for safety, earning a coveted Class 1 safety rating and accession number from the Food and Drug Administration.
The Lockformer® Fiber Laser Elite Cutting System is powered by the latest generation control system from B&R Industrial Automation, moving beyond traditional Windows-based interfaces to a robust, Linux-based platform. This system acts as the digital nerve center for your entire production line, offering:
Universal Software Acceptance: Directly download job data from leading CAM modeling platforms, including Autodesk, Trimble, PractiCAM, Shop Data Systems, and others.
Modern Remote Diagnostics: Features built-in Site Manager technology for secure, real-time remote troubleshooting and system monitoring.
Onboard Machine Insight: Access detailed performance data, fault alerts, and maintenance indicators directly at the machine interface, no external connection required, for faster troubleshooting and reduced downtime.
Simulation Capabilities: Test and refine production runs digitally before feeding material to ensure maximum efficiency and minimal waste.
Advanced User Interface: A dedicated pedestal-mount control featuring touchscreen, mouse, and keyboard for intuitive operation.
Coil feeding maximizes the productivity of the Lockformer Fiber Laser Elite. In addition to saving valuable floor space on traditional sheet racks, coil feeding optimizes material utilization, reduces scrap, and reduces labor costs associated with manually handling sheet stock.
But the Iowa Precision NEO Coil Feed takes the benefits of coil feeding to another level. With its automatic, multi-gauge operation the NEO Coil Feed allows you to run your operation seamlessly by the job instead of batching your production by material gauge with no manual intervention for the ultimate in production precision, flexibility, and productivity.
