The ConVERGENT CV4000 CO2 Laser from Prima Electro uses a high quality beam for precise, high-speed cutting of thin and thick metals and non-metals. Its DC-excited, fast-axial flow design is electrically efficient, to help minimize operating costs.
The beam features cut width independent of cutting direction. The energy distribution within the beam is ideal for minimizing heat input to the workpiece in a wide range of thicknesses, from thin gauge sheet and tubing to plate and pipe.
The CV4000 has the following typical cutting capability: mild steel up to 22mm thick, stainless steel up to 12mm thick and aluminum up to 10mm thick (using 10-inch focal length lens). The laser has the capabilities to cut other material including high-performance plastics, composites, ceramics, etc.
The lasers design provides output from 200 to 4,000 watts average power and has advantages over other 4 kW CO2 lasers for cutting and welding operations. These include: a 20 per cent and higher advantage using less electrical power and a 50 per cent and better advantage using less laser gas. The CV4000’s magnetic bearing turbine features an 80,000 hour maintenance interval.
Over 5,000 ConVERGENT CO2 lasers have been installed worldwide since their introduction over three decades ago, states Terry VanderWert, president of Prima Electro North America.
“That includes over 1,300 of the current design with the very latest model, the CV4000, used for a wide range of cutting applications. This vast customer base proves the long term quality and reliability of the ConVERGENT laser designs and their successful application in many important industries across the world.”
