The world of 3D laser processing at TRUMPF

Whether it's a tailgate, medical instruments or components for aircraft engines – nowadays, the laser is the tool of choice for processing three-dimensional metal components. Thanks to its speed and efficiency, it has many advantages in comparison to conventional punching, milling and welding tools. TRUMPF is a laser processing pioneer and offers complete machines and systems, along with laser beam sources and optical path components. From cutting and welding to laser metal deposition: TRUMPF laser machines make it easy to change machining processes.

At TRUMPF, customers can rely on the most comprehensive and varied range on the market. TRUMPF offers the most flexible machine for small to medium-sized parts and – unique to the industry – two series of machines for large components and different levels of investment. In addition, it's only at TRUMPF that customers can receive a modular system for large and very large components, making it possible to always profit from the optimum ratio of installation area, cost and benefit. TRUMPF is also the only provider that currently offers a machine solution that can be perfectly adapted to the demands of the application, due to the freedom to choose laser beam sources.

Additionally, numerous integrated functions also help to optimise the processes for the requirements of each application. Five-axis kinematic motion makes it possible to efficiently process even complex three-dimensional shapes. Condition Based Services increase the productivity and availability of networked laser systems even further, thanks to analysis and monitoring. This means customers are perfectly equipped for Industry 4.0.

Everything from a single source

Laser systems, beam sources, optics, sensors and components for beam guidance – since we at TRUMPF manufacture everything on our own, customers can rely on systems that are optimally suited for each other. In addition to complete 3D laser machines, TRUMPF also offers OEM solutions.

Intuitive software

Whether for small or large quantities, TruTops Cell makes it easy to program 3D laser machining processes. Geometric changes can be made quickly. With the integrated standard optics, the software covers all machining processes. Comprehensive 3D technology tables also simplify your introduction into the 3D world.

High processing quality

TRUMPF stands for excellent quality in three-dimensional metal cutting – at the same high processing speed. The 3D laser processing machines can master even high-tensile materials without any problems. Likewise when welding, customers can be assured of utmost weld seam quality and consistently stable processes.

Flexible for every scenario

TRUMPF customers can choose from a large and modern range of products and machine solutions for the most varied of tasks. This allows for both small and high-volume components to be processed. Additionally, the machines can be easily retrofitted modularly to suit changing customer requirements.

Diverse applications are waiting for you!

Laser-welded sheet-metal assembly

The TruLaser Cell 3000 enables highly precise, flexible 3D laser welding for sheet-metal assemblies. In this process, several sheet-metal parts are joined into one component, whose quality and reliability is guaranteed. The machine can achieve 17 weld seams in 30 seconds. Because the heat transferred is minimal, the component hardly warps at all. Seam geometries and welding depths can be selected as needed.

Prototype construction

In prototype construction, quick and easy setup of new components as well as cutting quality are decisive. The two 3D laser systems, the TruLaser Cell 5030 and the TruLaser Cell 7040, are specially designed for applications in this challenging field. This is due to the TruLaser Cell 5030, which, in comparison to competitors, has a smaller installation area. This provides customers not only the benefit of reduced machine costs, but also lower energy and maintenance costs.

Motor cover

The TruLaser Cell 7040 3D laser cutting system is specially suited for cutting large, three-dimensional components, such as motor covers. Its large work area, diverse beam sources, and numerous performance features allow the machine to process all outer contours and create through holes quickly and with flexibility – all the while maintaining utmost ergonomics and quality.
