Trotec adds roll material extension to large format laser cutter

Leading manufacturer and supplier of laser cutting technology and materials, Trotec Laser
, has unveiled two new improved productivity features for their large format SP laser cutter series.

The SP2000 and SP3000 laser cutters have been designed from the ground up for processing large format materials in demanding high-volume environments. Each machine is intrinsically safe and provides optimum production times for laser cutting large format plastics, woods, metal and more.

A new roll extension accessory for textiles has transformed the award winning SP3000 into a sophisticated system for laser cutting large format roll materials. The roll extension can be used in conjunction with a roll off unit or an unloading table for maximum ease and efficiency during the processing of large or high-volume textile applications, such as within the automotive, nautical, aerospace, fashion and toy manufacturing industries.

Tandem Assist is a new feature of Trotec's user friendly JobControl® laser software, allowing the user to virtually split the machine's working area into two zones. Whilst the laser cutter is operating in zone A, completed workpieces can be unloaded from zone B and new materials added ready for processing. The result is decreased production downtime and better throughput.

The new features combined with the four-side access, large bed size and high-speed cutting of the SP2000 and SP3000 laser cutters equal maximum productivity for large format laser processing.

Speaking of the new developments, Martin Horne, Managing Director of Trotec UK said "Customer productivity is at the forefront of our efforts so we are delighted to unveil these new features for our laser cutting systems."

"Not only do they serve our traditional customer base with improved functionality, but they also extend the appeal of Trotec's large format laser cutters into the large format textiles industries."

In addition to its SP series of large format lasers, Trotec manufactures a range of smaller flatbed laser systems as well as galvo laser markers which are ideal for high-speed marking or engraving of components as part of a production line.
