FOM2RI 3015

Laser Cutting System with Rotary Index

Expanded Process Range
The Rotary Index is an integrated unit, allowing the cutting head to be
positioned near the chuck minimizing the dead zone. Bowed pipe or tub-
ing can now be cut without vibration while maintaining accuracy from end
to end. The innovative design expands process range capabilities to cut a
signicantly wider variety of tubing and pipe. Machines using 3- or 4-jaw
rotary chucks cannot process a similar range of materials without the use of
xtures or collets. Amadas FOM2 RI can process round, square, rectangle,
C-channel, and angle iron, making it the most versatile Rotary Index laser
cutting system available. Productivity is further enhanced with the use of
Dr. Abe_Tube software. Many common shapes and congurations are
already pre-programmed making it very easy to fabricate tubular structures
that t together for welding.
AMNC/PC
Highspeed Cutting Head
Features and Benets of the High-
Speed Capacitance Cutting Head
Increased sensing speed for faster cutting
and plasma resistance in thin material.
Lens burn detection to stop the machine
and alert the operator to possible burn
damage to the cutting lens.
Cut Process Monitoring for automatic
pierce detection as well as plasma detec-
tion for thick stainless steel and aluminum.
Auto-focus control (B-axis)
SFP (Spatter Free Pierce) function for
cleaner high-speed piercing in thicker
material.
WACS
TM
(Water Assist Cutting System)
for cooling the surface when cutting plate.
AMNC/PC Control Features and Benets

Compact ash drive instead of hard drive improves
hardware reliability in shop environment
The FOM2 3015 NT RI is engineered to include an innovative
Rotary Index with the power and speed to efciently cut mid to
thick materials. The Rotary Index is located on one of three shuttle
palletsmaking it extremely easy to switch from at sheet cutting
to tube or pipe cutting.
The Most Versatile Rotary Index
Laser Cutting System Available
Maintain Accuracy
Cut bowed pipe or tubing without vibration while
maintaining accuracy from end to end. Machines using
three- or four-jaw rotary chucks cant process the
same range of materials without the aid of xtures or
collets. The Rotary Index is an integrated unit, allowing
the cutting head to be positioned near the controllable
pneumatic chuck, thereby minimizing the dead zone.
Automatic Nozzle Changer
A standard nozzle changer promotes continuous, unat-
tended operation. The 8-station changer automatically
changes, cleans, and calibrates the nozzle and head based
on the requirements for the material to be processed.
This feature increases machine utilization while reducing
overall processing time.
Dr. Abe _ Tube Software
Productivity can be achieved by using Amadas Dr. Abe_
Tube software. Many common shapes and congurations
are already pre-programmed, making it easier for you
to fabricate tubular structures that t together for
welding. And it saves you time at the front end and
back end, since it reduces the possibility of errors
and rework.
Superior Stability
The foundation for the FOM2 RI is built upon the third
generation of Amadas proven FO series that was
introduced in 1999. The FOM2 RI combines features
available on the FO series of lasers, as well as some of
the leading-edge technology available on Amadas F1
linear drive systems.
Resonator
At the heart of the FOM2 RI is the Amada/Fanuc RF
excited resonator. This fast axial laser was designed
specically for Amada to produce the highest edge
quality by improving the overall shape and stability of
the laser beam itself, passing along that ability to you.
In addition to superior edge quality, the FOM2 RI delivers
faster cutting speeds than previous generations of lasers.
The advanced features of the Fanuc resonator have
made it the most reliable resonator available today.
