b_150_100_16777215_0___images_stories_Features2011_bysprint1.jpg Bystronic presents the BySprint Fiber 3015, a fiber laser cutting machine based on the BySprint Pro platform. This machine marks the company's first production series model of a laser cutting system that employs fiber-laser technology. Equipped with a 2 kW Fiber 2000 fiber laser, the machine is suitable for cutting steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous metals, such as copper and brass.

The laser source provides power enough to process sheet materials as thick as 0.5-in. The laser beam is transported to the cutting head through a passive fiber, as opposed to the deflection mirror systems employed by carbon dioxide lasers. The result is lower operating and maintenance costs, in addition to significant energy savings as a result of using the Fiber 2000 laser source, the company suggests. The cutting head has a focal length of 150 mm.
