Laser cutting solutions from the USA
HORN Machine Tools, Inc (HMT), a
manufacturer and distributor of CNC
tube bending machinery, offers both flat
sheet and tube laser cutting machines.
The machines utilise efficient fibre
laser technology and are configured
in four different models, which can
be customised to fit customers’
requirements.
The fibre laser power source is from
IPG Photonics, the laser cutting head is
from Precitec, the servo motor system is
from Yaskawa and the control system is
from Power Automation.
The machines utilise Lantek software
to facilitate programming and nesting
functions. All the major components
have worldwide support and are readily
available.
According to company president
Kent Horn, “We can now provide both
a high quality CNC tube bender and
laser cutter, for much less than the laser
would cost from other sources.”
The high production, fully automatic
tube laser model FLTA loads the tube
into the cutting area and processes the
cut parts without assistance from the
operator.
For entry-level buyers there is a
semi-automatic machine that has
the same cutting capability, but the
operator provides minimal assistance
to position the tube into the tube
chuck.
The flat sheet cutters are configured
in two formats: the FLSA model is a
conventional 5 ft x 10 ft flat sheet laser
cutter with a double exchange sheet
handling system; the FLTS model is a
combination machine that combines
a 5 ft x 10 ft flat sheet cutter with a
tube spindle for processing tubular
shapes.
The combination machine is of
interest to fabricators who have both flat
sheet and tube cutting requirements, but
cannot justify two separate machines.
