EdgeTec and PierceTec are Precitec’s newest technology packages. The company says EdgeTec offers a larger adjustment range for the focus position and allows fast cuts with smooth edges for all materials – from thin metal sheets to stainless steel thicknesses of greater than 30mm.
With PierceTec the sensor measures and evaluates process data online and takes over the laser control. The progress of piercing is constantly monitored in a complex control process, where laser parameters are optimised in real time based on the received data.
