IPG Microsystems IX-255

A highly configurable laser work cell for general purpose and small-scale production applications. The system combines a Class 1 workstation integrated with a fiber laser and all necessary software. Configurable options, available with initial order or as a field upgrade, include: Ablation or Thermal Cutting & Drilling, Part Handling & Moving, Beam Formation, Delivery & Scanning, Vision System and Alignment. Additional options and accessories further extend the versatility and application of this easy- to-use laser micromachining system. The IX-200-F can be configured with basic functionality as an entry-level system, as a fully equipped, highly precise machining tool compatible with any micromachining application, or anywhere in between. The modular design allows users to buy the capability needed today and expand through field upgrades as requirements evolve.
