GL.evo laser machine

The GL.evo is a universal and high-precision tool machine for industrial laser microprocessing. The machine concept harmonizes the requirements of high-precision and dynamic kinematics with the requirements of ultra-short pulse laser technology and enables production of the most challenging components up to the possibility of 5-axis simultaneous machining.

This means that the laser machine is therefore used in all laser micro machining processes and can be optimally customized to customers requirements via different modules.

The control of the machine, the beam source and the different modules are controlled from a consistent user interface. This procedure leads to intuitive operation of the system and enables the control and steering of all process parameters in real time. This significantly reduces the development time for the machining process and guarantees to identify the optimal parameter set of the machining in a short time.

CONTROL

With GL.control you have the possibility to control all sub systems of the machine and coordinate them. The operator of the machine can program all of the tasks in one single user interface. The controlling software GL.control is basic equipment of the GL.evo.

SOFTWARE OPTIONS

The modular design of our GL.control software allows the machine control system to be expanded with a range of functions. Thus the user is able to adapt the software configuration to their requirements.
