Laser cutting is a highly efficient technology that allows sheet metal to be cut with a high-power laser beam controlled by a computer.
The main advantage of laser cutting is the absence of mechanical effects on the workpiece and minimal thermal influence on it. This virtually eliminates deformation during part production.
Laser cutting is widely used in the metalworking industry because of its high productivity and excellent cut quality.
The essence of laser beam cutting is as follows: the cutting beam is formed using an electromagnetic field and carbon dioxide molecules. It has a high power, and, coming out of the resonator with a diameter of 12 mm, it focuses on the surface of the metal, concentrating the energy into a beam with a diameter of only 0.15 mm. This makes it possible to pierce the metal instantly, cutting it at high speed while achieving high cutting precision and a perfectly smooth edge.
Laser cutting at Gromov Center is performed by a gas CO2 laser complex from the world leader – Trumpf, providing high power of radiation, with German reliability and ease of maintenance.
Having obvious advantages over other metal cutting technologies, laser cutting enables fast production based on technical drawings and flat patterns made in AutoCAD (DXF).
Laser cutting is cost efficient for production of single copies and small-batch production as there is no need in manufacturing costly cutting dies and casting forms. Automated cutting process enables a high level of accuracy and repeatability.
Carbon steel cutting in Gromov Centre is carried out by burning metal in presence of oxygen which produces additional power eliminating combustion products.
Aluminium, zinc steel and stainless steel are cut by blowing molten material away from the cut area with high-pressure nitrogen jet. Nitrogen prevents the formation of an oxide layer, leaving a bright burr-free edge that requires no further processing, which is a great advantage.
Laser cutting in Gromov Centre is carried out on CNC Trumpf TC L 3030 and CNC Trumpf TC L 3050 laser cutting machine.
The company “GROMOV” specializes in laser cutting and bending of sheet metal.
We operate on the best machines of the European technology leader, Trumpf Company (including laser cutting machines TC L 6050, 3050, 3030 and Trumabend V130 Press Brake), which enable accurate and quality processing of single orders as well as mass production. With their high productivity we can meet any requirements and find the best solution for you as well as provide the required number of replicas with precision of 0.1 mm.
At the same time, the final result depends not only on the equipment, but also on the level of specialists entrusted with the work. Over 25 years of activity, the company has formed a disciplined and highly qualified team of like-minded professionals with advanced knowledge and skills, both in designing products and drawing up drawings, as well as in operating complex equipment.
