AMADA WELD TECH’s Sigma Laser Tube Cutting System is the ideal solution for precision laser cutting of medical hypodermic tubes and stents.
- Maximize throughput with high speed direct drive stages - Integrated X and theta “lathe” axes are direct drive technology with high dynamic precision performance delivering the highest accelerations and operating speeds
- Multi axis options -The tube cutter provides 3 axes as standard; X, theta, and Z. A forth optional transverse axis, Y, is available for off axis cut geometries.
- Designed for precision -The lathe stages are mounted directly to a composite base with vertical and transverse stages mounted to a composite gantry secured to the composite base. The composite material construction provides superior rigidity with vibration dampening. Linear motors combined with high resolution linear encoders precisely position the X and Y axes.
- User interface with integrated camera - Large Windows® format user screens display comprehensive machine status with easy to use functionality. The camera image integrated to the user screen provides inline through-the-lens viewing.
- Wet and dry operation - Standard, integrated water system with flow rate control, level sensors and easily changed filters. The lathe stages, rated IP54, and all connections are sealed for reliable wet operation.
- Enclosure features and safety -The CDRH Class 1 workstation enclosure includes ISO 13849-01 Category 3 safety interlocks. The interlocked full front door lifts easily vertically to provide full access to tooling, focus head, and stages. A smaller window door slides horizontally maximizing operator productivity.
