3 . Functions of the MF-C300A-SF/C500A-SF
⇒
Fiber laser oscillator
■
The laser is capable of processing workpieces under a small spot diameter.
■
The single laser provides CW and pulse output.
■
The laser employs an LD excitation system, which significantly reduces the
number of required maintenance operations.
■
The laser provides high energy efficiency for lower power consumption.
⇒ Optional waveform control function and schedule setting
■
The Laser can handle a wide variety of workpieces. Up to 256 different set -
tings for weld schedules using waveform control are available.
■
High-repetition laser output (1000 pps max.) supports high-speed seam weld-
ing.
■
The welding schedule can be momentarily switched. This permits high-speed
and high-quality welding.
■
For seam welding, output can be set to fade in at the start and fade out at the
end also to smooth overlaps at both ends of the weld.
■
With the optional scanning unit, the laser provides accurate, high-speed pro-
cessing.
■
Various kinds of processing can be done with the modulation function.
⇒
Simple operations and maintenance
■
Remote control is available because the Laser Controller is detachable.
■
A welding schedule is input from the large-shaped touch panel type color dis-
play. Accordingly, operations can be easily and accurately performed.
■
Language displayed on the Laser Controller can be switched between Japa -
nese and English.
■
A variety of input and output signals allow the Laser to be connected to auto-
matic machines.
■
Both the laser energy (J) and its mean power (W) are monitored. If the desired
energy range has been preset and the laser energy is out of the range, the
trouble signal is output. This function is provided for quality control purposes.
■
Optical fiber detection is available to check fiber breakage.
■
Using the external communication function permits managing data such as
welding schedules and monitor values in centralized form.
⇒
The factory environment can be improved by space saving.
■
The laser power supply and oscillator are integrated into a single piece for
easy transport and installation of the Laser.
⇒
The Laser is in compliance with IEC Standards IEC60825-1 “Safety of laser prod-
ucts Part 1: Equipment Classifications, requirements and use’s guide”
