Cincinnati Incorporated has unveiled its new CL-400 CO2 laser cutting system. The new model uses water-cooled, high-speed linear motor drives, and the same HMI touchscreen control and nesting software found on the company’s other CO2 and fiber laser cutting systems.

The new laser cutting system features a low-maintenance 4000-watt resonator, providing all-around material versatility and cutting precision.

“We’ve selected a highly reliable, clean running CO2 resonator for the new system,” said Todd Kirchoff, product manager for Cincinnati.

“We’ve also made significant investments in our operations to improve our flow and productivity. As a result, we’re able to offer the CL-400 at a lower price point, while loading it up with features found on our more advanced systems. This gives customers another choice in determining the right laser cutting system to fit their performance needs and budgets.”

The CL-400’s fourth-generation linear motor drives make fast work of large parts or batch processing of smaller parts, while delivering industry-best dynamic positioning accuracy of ±0.001-inch at high cutting speeds.

The machine’s heavy .75-inch to 1.5-inch steel plate frame provides a rigid base for all the laser’s components. The separate load frame is made of 1.5-inch plate steel to withstand repetitive loading and unloading without affecting the cutting process.

The Windows-based HMI controls are compatible with all other Cincinnati laser systems
