INSTALLATION FOR LASER WORKING OF SHEET MATERIALS Russian patent published in 2000 - IPC

FIELD: laser working technique, namely apparatuses for laser working of sheet materials, possibly in different industry branches for cutting out flat sheets. SUBSTANCE: installation includes manipulator, control system and laser. Manipulator has two traverse bars arranged mutually in parallel for moving cross piece along X-axis. Focusing lens and rotary mirror are arranged on cross piece and they are moved together along Y-axis. Technological laser and autonomous cooling system are mounted on other cross piece provided with its own drive unit. Cross piece with laser is used for moving installation at cutting out operations and provides practically constant length of optical tract at working. Operational systems of both cross pieces are mutually connected by optical means. EFFECT: significantly enlarged manufacturing possibilities of installation, its enhanced dynamic characteristics due to use of high-power laser. 3 cl, 1 dwg
