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. The speed and efficiency provide many advantages when compared to conventional punching, milling, and welding tools. TRUMPF is a pioneer in 3D laser processing and offers the complete machines and systems as well as beam sources and components for beam guidance. From cutting to welding, all the way to laser metal deposition – TRUMPF laser processing machines make the switch between machining processes a piece of cake.

At TRUMPF, customers can rely on the most comprehensive and varied range on the market. This allows TRUMPF to offer the most flexible machine for small to medium-sized components, as well as two machine series for large components, and different levels of investment – something which is unique in the industry. In addition, only at TRUMPF can customers 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 optimize the processes for the requirements of each application. The 5-axis kinematic motion makes it possible to efficiently process even complex three-dimensional geometries. Condition Based Services also increases the productivity and availability of networked laser systems even further, through 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 produce everything on our own, customers can rely on systems which are optimally suited for each other. In addition to complete 3D laser machines, TRUMPF also offers OEM solutions.

Intuitive software

3D laser processing is easily programmed with TruTops Cell, regardless of whether it's small or large quantities. Geometric changes can be quickly adapted. The software covers all machining processes due to integrated standard optics. Comprehensive 3D technology tables also make entry into the 3D world easier.

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 allows for highly precise and flexible 3D laser welding of sheet metal assemblies. For this purpose, multiple sheet metal parts are joined to one component and its quality and reliability ensured. The machine can achieve 17 weld seams in 30 seconds. As a result of a minimal heat input, there is virtually no warping of the component. Seam geometries and welding depths can be selected freely.

Prototype construction

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

Motor cover

The TruLaser Cell 7040 3D laser cutting machine is especially suitable for cutting large, three-dimensional components, such as a motor cover. 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 – while maintaining utmost ergonomics and quality.
