FB500 Flat Bed Laser Cutting Machine

Introduction into the FB500 laser cutting machines.

The FB 500 is our most compact laser cutting and engraving machine, though it still features the same high speed precision and build quality of our larger machines. Combining versatility and performance to allow production on a vast number of materials it is ideal for small businesses and education environments.

What Laser do you use?

We use a sealed CO2 air cooled laser, which is a certified Class 1 laser product, being interlocked and fully enclosed while cutting. This machine is available with a 30watt laser or a 50watt.

What do your machines do?

The FB500 is a laser cutting and engraving machine. It can cut a wide variety of materials like acrylic, mdf, ply, cardboard and paper. You can also engrave and raster images onto surfaces such as wood and plastic. The control of cutting is so accurate you can engrave onto paper. The air irrigation system attached to the cutting head sends a stream of air or inert gas to the point of cut, this enables you to achieve a consistently clean cut.

How do you control the laser cutter?

The laser is controlled by the cutting software that is included with this machine. The material manager allows you to store a wide range of materials, so you can instantly change from one material to another. Adjustments may be made to the cutting speed and the power so a fine, clean, accurate depth of cut may be achieved.
