WEC Laser has taken receipt of a new 4m x 2m 7Kw laser cutting machine, the first of its kind in the UK. This machine adopts single-head technology leading to reduced set-up times, increased productivity and ultimately cost-reduction for the customer. The 7Kw enables the machine to cut thicker material; up to 30mm and with new software and linear drive technology in place, an increase in cutting speeds is visible.

This follows the recent purchase of a second tube & box cutting machine which provides a 20% higher production rate than normally experienced in the field combined with a unique level of flexibility and automatic adjustments. This feature makes it suitable for both small batches and large runs.
