Crafted Metals
has been in the business of custom precision laser cutting and fabrication for
over 30 years and have supplied the highest quality laser cutting services for
OEM, artists, government military contracts, structural steel suppliers and
more.
Our Mazak Space Gear-U44 (SG-U44) 6 axis compact laser performs high-speed processing of sheetmetal, plate, pre-formed parts, pipes and structural.
The SG-U44
performs 2D and 3D cutting of tube, including rectangular and triangular pipe as
well as C, H, I and L beams. The 5-axis torch and simultaneously controlled
chuck let the SG-U44 fabricate – in one operation – precise angle cuts,
weld-prep bevels and advanced contours such as saddle joint cuts. The 64-bit NC
incorporates illustrated fill-in-the-blank screens to quickly program such
complex contours and other cuts.
With its multi-axis torch, the SG-U44 laser-cuts stamped, hydroformed,
and spun pre-formed parts as well as high-speed 2D bevels in flat material. The
system features an 16.53" Z-axis and a compact torch that reduces the
possibility of collisions with non-flat materials. Mazak's Space Cam software
generates NC code from a 3D CAD drawing, imported or crafted in the system, and
it performs pre-cut simulations. It also automatically generates code for a
slot-and-tab workholding fixture
