It combines advanced productivity with economic efficiency and precision. The machine housing is manufactured from welded and bolted steel construction, specifically designed for industrial and commercial applications. The drive system developed by PFEIFER technology ensures both precision and high repeat accuracy. skyCUBE laser systems meet all requirements of Class 1 according to DIN EN 60825-1, providing you with maximum safety. The ergonomic design with a pull-out worktable facilitates easy loading of the machine. Drawers in the lower section collect cutting residues efficiently. The skyCUBE laser software with file import capability generates precise laser cutting geometries for your requirements. Iodpow Ebzmefx Af Detl Optimize your cutting quality and speed—even with thick materials—thanks to the 6kW laser power, including when using compressed air. Switch between materials while maintaining consistently high cutting quality without compromise. Monitor your production with ease: the large front doors allow convenient access to the entire working area. Position the operator console wherever you prefer. It is mobile, providing optimal visibility of the cutting process at all times. Naturally, your safety is the highest priority when operating the skyCUBE laser! The skyCUBE XLs is a Class 1 laser system. There is no risk of coming into contact with laser beam emissions or reflections during operation.
