Closed laser welding machines – Medium

The GLA series represents a fully housed CNC laser system with up to 5 NC axes for welding, cutting and marking applications of all kinds. The larger GLA-M, despite an enlarged working area by a factor of 3 compared to the GLA-S, has a machine footprint of only approx. 1.2 square meters. The machine housing complies with laser protection class 1 and is designed for the reliable yet flexible production of medium-sized components. Despite the compact footprint, the machine cell made of aluminum system profile offers maximum precision, rigidity and repeatability in the work area thanks to 3-axis basic kinematics made of a mineral casting monoblock. The optionally available rotary-swivel bridge of the GLA-M enables the use of up to 5 fully-fledged CNC-controlled axes.

Handling
The system is operated using WPT’s own touch panel, which centrally controls the machines as well as the laser functions.
The panel has an integrated haptic keypad for the main movement functions of the system. For the teach or setup mode, an optionally available joystick is available, which allows new products to be programmed directly at the machine within a few minutes in an innovative, fast and flexible manner.
