With a choice of four different laser types: high peak power pulsed Nd: YAG, high power CO2, fibre or Q-switched Nd: YAG, the Delta system can be configured for a diverse range of applications including hole drilling, 3D cutting, ablation, welding and cladding.
Built upon a substantial, single piece base and with a machine capacity of 1,900mm (74.8 inches) diameter and 900mm (35.4 inches) in height, the Delta machining system is designed for large Aero and IGT components with a combined component and fixture weight of up to 250kg (550 lbs). It is also ideal for drilling, cutting and welding fuel cell components.
Applications
A robust design combined with multi-axis flexibility, large work envelope and a choice of laser type means that the Delta can be used for many different applications including:
-
Percussion Drilling
-
Drilling on the Fly
-
Hole Cutting (Trepanning)
-
2D and 3D Shaped Hole Machining (Ablation or Vectoring)
-
Ceramic Coating Removal - Ablation
-
3D High Speed Cutting
-
Cladding for Repair and Overhaul
-
Welding
-
Combination of these processes using dual laser sources on a single machine
