Only for structural steel

• For medium and larger material thickness
• Economic use of severall burner
• Low investment and wear costs

• Bad cutting results under 5 mm material thickness
• Low accurracy at repeat cuts because of impact
• Strong distorsion at te lower sheet area, straightening is necessary
• Large zone with structural change because of heat impact

• Cutting of all electric conductive materials
• Without alternative in cutting of high-alloy steels and Aauminium materials in middle and thicker material
• Excellent suitability of  thin and middle steel (up to 30 mm) in relation on costs/benefits ratio
• Cutting of high-strength steel with low heat-impact
• One and more burner operation depending on lot-size and configuration
• High cutting speed (compared up to 10 x faster than Autogen)
• High Quality of cutting edge in sector of middle and thicker Sheet field with vortex gas-technology with industrial gases
• good automation possibilities

• Use up to 160mm (180mm) material thickness with dry cutting and 120mm in Underwater-cutting.
• Depending the plasma source wider kerfs

• High accuracy and cutting speed in thin and middle sheet area
• Square and high-quality cutting edge without grid
• Very good automation
• Extremely low heat impact zone
• Very close kerf (0,2 – 0,4mm)
• extreme high Cuttings-speed in thin sheet area
• Cuttin of very small holes, small webs
• Production of complex and filigree component contours
• Metallic,  non-metallic and Composites
• ts (high gas consumption)
• Limited Sheet thickness range
• Depending the selection of Lasersource
• Exactely Distance Direction to theWorkpiece-surface necessary
• Interference of  the beam stability at the cutting of construction steel with normaly Si- and P-conant

• High investment and operation costs (high gas consumption)
• Limited Sheet thickness range
• Depending the selection of Lasersource
• Exactely distance leveling to the workpiece-surface necessary
• Interference of  the beam stability at the cutting of steel with normaly Si- and P-conant
• Reduction of  the process stability at cutting mirroring material surface

• Cutting of metallic, non-metallic and composites
• big material- and thickness range
• no metallurgical changes at the intersection
• ; no heat impact
• Small kerfs, very good dimensional stability of the workpieces
• Excellent cutting-quality at thin and middle material thickness
• Good possibilities of process automation
• Depending on lot size use of several cuttingheads possible
• Bridging of air-chinks
• High Investment and production costs (compared to Plasma: Operating costs 1:5 to 1:20 depending on Material and Thickness)
• Relative small number of cutting speeds on “hards” Materials
• A loud and wet procedure

• High investment and production costs (compared to Plasma: Operating costs 1:5 to 1:20 depending on material and thickness)
• Relative low cutting speeds on special materials
• A noisy and wet cutting technology
