eurolaser

Since its foundation in 1994, eurolaser has specialised in cutting non-metallic materials.
These include plastics such as polyester or acrylic, wood and MDF, textiles and composites
as well as many other materials. Today, the universal cutting systems are used, among other
things, for cutting large-format textiles in the soft signage sector, for technical control
elements made of plastic films or printed acrylic displays for shop fitting. In particular, the
demand for large processing areas and automation solutions is increasing across all
industries. With the new, optional camera system, called POSITIONplus professional,
eurolaser picks up on this trend and offers exciting competitive advantages especially for
processors in the printing industry.

Many applications require precise cutting to existing fiducial marks or other material references. For this purpose, eurolaser offers a smart solution consisting of a camera and evaluation software. Using reference points, the optical recognition system allows printed materials to be cut out precisely along the print contour. The new camera technology considerably reduces the time needed to read in the fiducial marks. The entire working area is quickly captured via area scan, thus optimising the process time. In addition, this process expands the range of possible applications. For example, contours on materials can be detected, whereupon suitable cutting data is created under software control. Pattern matching is also possible. Material patterns are detected so that the positioning of the cutting data is done taking the pattern into account. Useful functions that save time and money in further processing.

Working without contact means more than you might imagine at first glance. No influence of
force on the material, no material distortion, no clamping of the material, better material
utilisation, less waste, no re-sharpening of the tool are only some of these benefits. The
thermal cutting process of the laser is very advantageous in many applications. Fringe-free,
slightly fused cut edges in synthetic textiles, sealed multi-layer foils or crystal-clear, smooth
cut edges in acrylic are just a few examples. The laser processing is carried out with the
highest precision, even very filigree details are cut exactly. Since the laser beam itself is
wafer-thin (approx. 0.2-0.3 mm), even inner contours are cut radius-free, without taking the
tool diameter into account. Unlike other machining processes, the laser does not become
blunt over time. The quality of the cuts remains consistently high for years, from the first to
the last workpiece.

Of course, there are also machining requests that cannot be optimally implemented with the
laser, such as mitre cuts or milling and V-grooves. In this case, eurolaser offers unique
flexibility. Additional mechanical tools can be installed on all laser systems. For this purpose,
the user has access to well designed eurolaser solutions as well as the entire high-quality
tool range of Zünd Systemtechnik AG from Switzerland. For example, milling and marking
tools can expand the processing possibilities. Materials that are not suitable for the laser,
such as PVC, can also be processed on the same cutting system.

All models are designed according to the modular principle in order to always provide the right solution, even for special applications. For all systems, eurolaser offers various additional modules that are tailored to the customer-orientated application and can be seamlessly integrated into the process environment. They are geared towards the needs of the market and therefore offer a useful addition to the extensive basic equipment.
