TRUMPF recently launched TruLaser 3000 Bevel Cutting Edition at the EuroBLECH trade show in Hanover.  The new solution produces bevelled cutting edges (chamfers) on the top and bottom edge of the component while cutting. It is specifically suitable for mild and stainless steel.

The company has equipped the cutting unit of the new solution with two additional rotary axes, particularly compact drive motors and a nozzle for bevel cutting.

To meet the high demands of the preparation of complex bevel cuts, TRUMPF has developed a programming system. It contains a pre-selection of all the processing strategies, which the user can flexibly adapt as required. There are also predefined cutting parameters for the special bevel cut nozzles.

Patrick Schüle, Product Manager, TRUMPF, said, "With the TruLaser Series 3000 Bevel Cut Edition, users get a particularly productive universal machine with which they are able to integrate downstream process steps into laser machining."

"Thanks to the unique design of the cutting unit, the machine can create chamfers of up to 50 degrees, depending on the sheet thickness, which is more than the 45 degrees that were previously standard in the industry" he further added.
