Every manufacturer wants to produce more parts in the least amount of time possible. Achieving a higher material removal rate is one area that can provide opportunities for increased production cycles and profits.
Next level technologies and automated solutions provide high-speed milling and metal removal rates that can significantly improve output, while increasing workplace safety, tool life and potentially thousands of dollars in the process.
Lincoln Electric recognizes every situation is different, which is why we offer multi-faceted equipment solutions that can be adapted and redeployed for multiple uses and tasks to minimize downtime. Our automated material removal capabilities include solutions for metals, plastics, and composite materials. Pre-engineered product lines are available for finishing, sawing, and routing with options to support part infeed, outfeed and handling.
Laser Ablation
Precision Removal for Demanding Applications
Lasers are a powerful tool in removing contaminant material from surfaces because they provide greater control and precision for the operator. They are also more efficient and produce less waste than more traditional methods involving chemical or abrasive processes.
Lincoln Electric provides several laser ablation systems that are ideal for die cleaning, material preparation and paint removal processes.
