LASER MICRO MACHINE GL.evo
The production machine for parts from < 1g to 100 kg
Under the name GL.evo, GFH is presenting a 3 or 5 axis machine tool for industrial laser micro machining. The machine design harmonizes the requirements for precise (< 1µm) and dynamic (20m/s²) kinematics with the requirements of short-pulse laser technology. The field of applications ranges from ablation and coating removal processes to engravings and micro drilling with high aspect ratios. For the mentioned tasks different modules are optionally available.

CONFIGURATION
Controls
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.
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.
Hardware options
Thanks to the modular design, the GL.machines can be expanded with options and therefore adapted precisely to future applications. The following hardware options are available.
