New fibre laser machines bring tube cutting to wider subcontractor market

“Cross Series machines may be more price accessible than other models in the Nukon range, but they are built to the same exacting standards and will easily exceed the requirements of many subcontractors and in-house manufacturing centres. Depending on workflow, in reduced outsourcing costs alone, a Nukon Cross Series machine should typically pay for itself over a couple of years, but will work reliably in your business for many more.” The sister company of UK-based tube bending machinery specialists, Unison Ltd, Nukon Lasers UK is the UK and Ireland distributor for Nukon’s European-built 2D, 3D and tube fibre laser cutting machines, press brakes and loading and unloading solutions. Nukon fibre lasers combine high speed and precision with good value and quality, as well as low running costs. The Nukon Lasers UK team offers first class machine tool service, training, maintenance and technical support, in addition to service contracts and service level agreements that can be tailored to specific requirements.

Depending on requirement, they can be specified with power options from as little as 2kW, right up to 30kW for the most challenging of laser-cutting applications. High-spec optional features are equally impressive. Depending on model, buyers can choose from state of-the-art American-made nLIGHT fibre lasers or robust Raycus fibre lasers. Advanced Lantek Expert CAD/CAM nesting software can also be specified as can CutLine programmable beam shaping technology (for nLIGHT models). Other options include automatic nozzle cleaning, cut detection, piercing sensing and automatic nozzle changing – all technologies to help ensure businesses
