20kW – Super Fast and a Beautiful Edge on 1.5″ !

Why bother flame cutting?     We cut 1.5″ steel at high rates with a great edge

• CatLine Technology (shown in this video) –  With special manipulation of the laser beam  we achieve a low heat, high quality edge with almost no taper; the edge is ready to mill or tap without tool life reduction. Cut speed was 10 ipm on this steel part as shown in the video. Previously they cut the part with oxy acetylene at 12 ipm and had hours of secondary machining to grind off the burr, deal with massive taper, and mill off portions of the edge for subsequent welding operations. 
• MixLine Technology –  By mixing a small amount of Oxygen in with the Nitrogen assist gas, we reduced the burr while delivering very fast cut speeds of over 30 ipm – much faster than laser cutting with pure Oxygen. The edge isn’t as silver as it is when using CatLine, but it you can still tap and mill it as if it were virgin steel, just like when we cut with CatLine. This edge is not shown in this video.

This laser pierces and cuts at rates beyond any other laser. It even outpaces most plasma cutters, while achieving the low taper and high accuracy of a laser. But 20kW isn’t just for thick steel; you should see it fly through sheet metal and thin plate.    Eagle Laser – Nothing Faster.
