MyESPOT

Developed for rapid sheet edge detection, MyESPOT allows you to reduce the sheet location process by up to 4 times. Its rapid edge finder locates the sheet, adjusts the program to match the sheet location, and promptly starts cutting. The cutting head remains retracted during the edge-finding cycle, allowing the machine to move at ultrafast speeds without the risk of collision or sheet damage.

AC - Automatic centering and anti-collision system

Automatic Centering is an industry-leading technology that maximizes the cutting speed, edge quality, and machine uptime while protecting your investment.

  • Nozzle center monitoring

Through strategically located sensors, the Eagle Automatic Centering System monitors nozzle-to-beam distance while cutting. If, due to a collision, the beam is not centered, the cutting stops. The system transports the head to the alignment station, where automatic realignment takes place in 15 seconds. Once the beam is recentered, the head can resume cutting.

  • Collision recovery

The eVa cutting head is designed to resist impacts of up to 50 m/min. After a collision, the AC will realign and resume cutting. If, after realignments, the head hits an obstacle three consecutive times, the machine will automatically go into standby mode to prevent sheet and equipment damage.

Thanks to the Eagle AC system, the nozzle is always centered, allowing for proper gas flow, maximum cutting speeds, and consistent edge quality of the cut part.

Automatic nozzle centering also means this task is no longer operator-dependent allowing for 24/7 unattended operation.

With this system, you can determine and control the frequency for nozzle centering and cleaning. It can be performed after each sheet, after 500 piercings, after three operating hours, or other criteria of your choosing.

ACS - Anti Collision System

Our eVa cutting head features the best ACS system currently available through three collision protection levels:

  • Slow cutting speed protection

At slow cutting speeds, the capacitive sensor will detect an impending collision and stop the machine before any damage can occur. In case of a collision, the Automatic Centering System (AC) will automatically realign the head and then resume cutting.

  • Fast-cutting speed protection

At fast cutting speeds of up to 50 m/min, the system moves the cutting head’s lower module (below the lenses) sideways to halt the operation in time and prevent machine damage. In the event of a collision, the Automatic Centering System (AC) will automatically realign the head and resume cutting.

  • Rapid traverse protection

If the sensors detect an impending collision at speeds up to 14,000 ipm, the cutting head’s lower module will detach to prevent significant machine damage. The module can then be replaced in 20 to 30 minutes.

ANC 36/72 - Automatic Nozzle Changer

The ANC system can be equipped with 36 or 72 nozzles, each of which can be reused up to 10 times. In addition, the nozzle changing is performed automatically and speedily in approximately 25 seconds, allowing for increased efficiency and continuous, unsupervised production during night shifts or weekends.

PCS - Piercing Control System

The PCS monitors the piercing procedure and notifies the control system of the completion or failure of the process. Only when the piercing process has been successfully completed, the cutting begins.

Without PCS, the piercing process is fixed and often continues, even if the beam has already penetrated the material. Another risk of lacking this system is that the machine can start cutting even if the piercing process has failed.

PCS reduces piercing time to a minimum while significantly increasing machine safety. It also minimizes cover slide wear-and-tear by eliminating unsuccessful piercing and prolongs the service life of the conveyor belt beneath the machine.

CCS - Cutting Control System

The Cutting Control System allows you to cut at the maximum possible speed without compromising stability.

CCS monitors and controls the cutting process; it ensures that cutting is consistently performed at high speed and informs the control system if any breakdown occurs.

Thanks to this system, the machine will automatically slow down the cutting speed when necessary and will resume at high speed as soon as possible.

CCS notably reduces the risk of damage to the cover slide, eliminates sheet welding (rather than cutting), and minimizes operator intervention while increasing efficiency and throughput.

Additional control panel

You can request an additional control panel, specially designed for projects which require the operator to have quick and easy access to the work table to inspect or load a small job within seconds.

Most of the main control panel functions are available to the operator on this second panel, including quick programs, live view from inside the machine, production planning, and program start, among others.

Transverse conveyor

The transverse conveyor removes fallen parts and scrap from the end of the conveyor and into the waste bin.

The mechanism allows small thin pieces to fall through the slats and be transported to a waste container outside the machine, making segregation for recycling simpler. This component is robust, durable and can be easily removed for cleaning.

Fast comb replacement

The standard option has individual combs in the table frame. This option uses modules that can be removed from the table frame and out of the machine for cleaning. They are then replaced with new modules without causing downtime, making maintenance easier for the operator.

HeavyDuty Package

The standard systems cut sheets up to 25mm thick. The Heavy Duty Package makes it possible to cut sheets up to 60 mm in thickness and includes:

  • A reinforced lower pallet,
  • A reinforced pallet changer, with the possibility of loading metal sheets,
  • An extended Z axis stroke,
  • Unique cutting technology

Automation options

CraneMaster Anti Collision System

The CraneMaster ACS protects the unloading basket forks from colliding with the cut parts when they are picked up from the machine's processing table. In the event of a collision, the system automatically stops the CraneMaster and reports the problem to the operator preventing damage. Since this system only halts the CraneMaster, the laser cutter can continue operating to ensure continuity.

Automatic Comb Cleaning

For additional cutting safety, the CraneMaster can be equipped with a cleaning system that sweeps the slats before loading new material without increasing the cycle time.

This option is available for the CraneMaster, CraneMasterLinear, CraneMasterStore and CraneMasterStoreLinear systems.

NoScratch

The NoScratch option equips the part/remnant lifting combs with special brushes to protect the sheet. This almost eliminates all scratching on cut parts when unloading them from the machine table.

It’s suited for the CraneMaster, CraneMasterLinear, CraneMasterStore, and CraneMasterStoreLinear systems.

Individual Suction Cup Control

In the standard version, the vacuum cups are controlled in pairs. The individual vacuum cup control option increases the flexibility of the automation process and provides greater freedom in terms of sheet size and shape.

Twice the number of Suction Cups

This extra option provides twice the number of suction cups on the CraneMaster, increasing flexibility when loading sheets of any shape and size.

Crane Master Additional Conveyor

Rather than manually unloading the pallet with a crane or forklift, the additional conveyor removes both parts and residue from the CraneMaster structure. This solution increases productivity by simplifying the sorting of cut pieces and the unloading process, and It's available for all CraneMaster systems.

Crane Master Linear Additional loading/unloading stations

If your company needs higher flexibility, you can request additional loading/unloading stations for the CraneMasterLinear system to achieve more efficient material handling.

Heavy-Duty Package

The Heavy Duty Package for automation increases the capacity of the loading/unloading systems from the standard 25mm to up to 60 mm thickness. It’s available for the CraneMaster, CraneMasterLinear, CraneMasterStore and CraneMasterStoreLinear systems.
