UNIVERSAL
LASER SYSTEMS UPGRADES XL SERIES WITH INCREDIBLE 400 WATTS
OF AIR-COOLED LASER POWER
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – (February 28, 2006) Universal Laser Systems,
Inc. has upgraded its XL Series of industrial CO2 laser cutting,
engraving, and marking systems with the addition of a new
laser that can be configured to provide an unprecedented 400
watts of air-cooled laser power. Unveiled at the 2006 Awards
and Recognition trade show in Las Vegas, the new laser utilizes
direct air cooling which eliminates the need for noisy and
expensive chillers and complicated plumbing.
In addition to offering high power, the XL Series features
oversized processing fields, easy integration and advanced,
stand-alone job management capabilities. Two models are available:
the XL-9200 features a 36”x24” processing field and the XL-12000
is configured with a 48”x24” processing field. Both accommodate
a broad range of materials and are designed to meet the most
demanding industrial applications.
The XL Series offers several unique advantages over competing
systems, such as the automatic detection of installed options,
which assures quick and error-free machine setups. Also unique
is an advanced beam indicator which precisely identifies the
point of laser impact on the material’s surface. A further
advantage is Universal’s patented High Power Density Focusing
Optics™, a lens option that reduces the focused spot size
and produces finer, more detailed engraving that is ideal
for photographs and smaller text.
The XL Series offers true stand-alone job management capabilities.
Users can store and run thousands of jobs on XL’s 40-gigabyte
hard drive without connection to a host PC, and change, store
or restore any job parameter on the fly. Users can preview
job files on the XL’s color LCD screen as well as display
the status of each job as it is running. The control panel
also provides an interface for system settings and diagnostics.
According to Chris Risser, Engineer Manager, “The XL Series
has been designed to provide the ultimate in reliability,
flexibility, and ease of use. It can be configured with 10
to 400 watts of air-cooled laser power and can withstand severe
industrial environments.” Risser continues, “The 400-watt
configuration is designed for the most demanding manufacturing
applications, and allows for deeper engraving, thicker cutting,
and faster processing.”
Universal Laser Systems, Inc. is the world’s leading producer
of computer-controlled laser engraving, cutting, and marking
systems for desktop and industrial applications. For more
