One of the big advantages of the Piranha-Whitney 12-kilowatt fiber laser cutting system is its ability to use nitrogen and cut a steel plate up to five eighths of an inch thick. When you cut with nitrogen, you eliminate the oxide edge that occurs when you cut with oxygen. This saves your time by eliminating the downstream secondary operations required to clean that oxidation off the edges of cuts.
The 12-kilowatt fiber laser cutting system can achieve speeds up to three times faster than what you can achieve with a 6-kilowatt fiber laser cutting system. Whitney has developed a cutting gas system that reduces the amount of nitrogen required when cutting with 12-kilowatts in a thick plate. This dramatically reduces the cost of operation and production on your parts.
These are just a few of the features of the Piranha-Whitney 12-kilowatt plate lasers. For more information, give us a call or check out our website.
