WALC

WALC - WIDE AREA LASER CUTTING MACHINE

The Farley Laserlab WALC (Wide Area Laser Cutting Mahcine) is designed specialy for cutting thicker materials with bigger plate sizes. This machine can profile any shape mild steel, stainless steel and aluminium from 0.5mm to 25mm, and can be configured with a variety of Laser Resonators from 1 KW to 5 KW, 00 Mode Slab Laser and multiple fast axial flow lasers up to 7Kw.

The WALC can cut plate up to 6m wide and 50m long in one set up.
