Thick Plate and Structural Fabrication.
Cutting and welding heavy sections for fabrication shops with the RAITO FL-6000 — high-power CW output built for demanding duty cycles.
The challenge
Heavy fabrication — machine bases, structural frames, earth-moving components — means thick mild steel, long cuts and welds, and machines that run all day.
Reflective and heavy sections punish a laser source: the system has to protect itself from back reflection and sustain full power without drifting.
The RAITO fit
The FL-6000 is specified as a 'Heavy Duty Powerhouse': 6 kW continuous-wave output with 25 mm+ mild-steel cutting capacity. For lighter, faster production work the FL-3000 adds active back-reflection protection and roughly 40% higher cutting speed than a 2 kW source.
Why it works
THE RIGHT SOURCE FOR THE JOB.
- 01Built for dutyHigh Power CW series output is designed to sustain long cuts and welds on thick sections shift after shift.
- 02Long reachThe 20 m standard delivery fiber suits large gantry and multi-station fabrication cells.
- 03Protected opticsAcross the range, active back-reflection protection (FL-3000) guards the source when processing reflective or heavy material.
