Opis maszyny

The Grafotronic Laser Options

• 250 or 450W CO2 10.6 laser – Most general laser wavelength
• 200 or 400W CO2 10.2 laser – Best for Polypropylene, BOPP and Paper
• 200 or 400W CO2 9.4 laser – Best for Polyester, paper (not PP, or BOPP)
• Possible to add a second laser to double the speed; this can also be done in the field at any time.

Kiss-cutting work support. Vacuum plate to support the web underneath the cutting area.

• Vacuum helps keep the web flat through the process. Ideal for PSA labels.

Through-cutting work support. Includes dropbox and automated blast gate.

2nd additional laser option. Provides upgrade capability and higher throughput by splitting up the job.  This is a typical benefit for multiple up jobs where the work load is shared.

Laser process area. 350 / 500 mm.

Vision Registration to Print – Register to a basic shape – preprogrammed for circles, squares, and corners. 

• Single camera. Cut to print registration providing X/Y compensation.
• Double cameras. Wide webs and sheets providing registration for  X/Y/θ (skew) compensation.
• 2D Barcode for Registration. Use the 2D barcode as the registration feature instead the printed circle or square. This combined with the Instant Order Change feature makes for a powerful and simplified method of operation.   (Upgrade)
• Instant Order Change. 2D barcode reading on the fly and change jobs.
• Vision Trax. Camera(s) are mounted on a rail with encoder making it easy to locate the camera anywhere above the web.

The LightGuide 6.0

This software package operates on Microsoft Windows® 10 64-bit, including a PC with 2 ethernet ports (laser system + network).

LasX LightGuide Software 6.1 – standout features

• Import of file types: .pdf, dxf, .dwg, and rastering files of .png, .jpg, .tif, gif.
• File Insert: Import artwork into existing artwork on the canvas.
• Export: .dxf, .dwg , (future support for .pdf)
• Merge Import: Add additional artwork from a second file into a previously imported file.
• Use of Layers: Support layers. Same as Adobe Illustrator and CAD programs.
• APO – Automated Process Optimization of laser processing path. Simplifies preparation and optimizes the throughput.
• Create any entity of lines circles and shapes. Full cad integration into LightGuide software.
• Full Entity Control. Override APO and have full control of laser path direction, jumps and order of processing.
• Converts a grey scale image to laser depth control. Complete control of pulse frequency, line spacing etc.
• User Management. Set user profiles and control user rights.
• Laser Depth Control. Superior control of lasers depth to not damage the release linear.
• Interactive CAD Control. Ease of moving, scaling, trimming, arraying, joining, exploding, splitting, and offsetting entities.
• Languages. Multiple languages supported (optional).
• External Machine Integrations. Open interface to integrate with ancillary products.
• Process Preview. Preview window of the part that is being processed.
• On-the-fly Nudge Control. Operator control of nudging the cut entities while the job is running in the X, Y, & Ɵ directions.
• On-the-fly Focus Adjust. Ideal for very sensitive materials and application dependent.
• Print Overlay. Shows the printed job paired with the die line in the canvas view.
• Process Parameters Guidance. Operator convent explanations of laser process parameters and capabilities to save our parameter sets or print for external documentation.
• Insert Vector Text. Insert text to existing artwork. Ideal for labeling samples and trials.
• Multiple LPM support. Lightguide supports multiple lasers easily with intuitive interface.
• Vision Registration Module. Ability to manage 1 – 2 cameras for registration of the die line to print.

LRE – Ripping Engine – the automation of preparing the file for laser processing.

• Ideal for short run, many files, and Instant Order Change feature.
• For customers without automatic work flow software.
• Recommended for customers with multiple laser on one system.
• The RIP engine removes the need for operators splitting job files and assigning them to a different laser.

Remote LightGuide. The ability to run a remote Lightguide in another location on the network.

• For estimating job run speed . Simulate web speeds and how LightGuide will process the job.
• Allows full adjusting of files and optimizing for maximum performance.

Operating Costs

• The laser requires no maintenance.
• Laser is rated for 20,000 hours minimum (5 years of 2-shift operation) before to be refurbished. Performance will decline gradually close to refurbishment.
• The Laser Module is built with the attention to:
  • Reducing operator maintenance
  • Increasing longevity of the system
  • Making highly reliable laser system
• Two-shift operation operating costs are estimated at €1/hour for electrical power and €2-€4/hour depending on options.
• Typical wearable items: Stainless Steel Processing Belt, doctor blade, protection window, air filters in air panel, filter in the chiller, belt cleaner brushes, belt cleaner squeegee, robot suction cups, and robot joints.
