LASER P 600 U - 1000 U - 1200 U - 1200 U Dedicated

Smallest beam radius

Choose the specific lens best suited to your application. Depending on your needs, three types of lenses are available for small details in three-axis Laser operations and for larger five-axis jobs. Our five-axis Laser texturing machine takes care of all the details to serve your success.

Laser sources

Short pulsed laser are needed to perform good texturing operation. From 30 to 100 W we have the right tool to match your expectation. Our Laser Flexipulse offers you the freedom to fine-tune your quality-to-speed ratio accordinf to your application: our solution is all about you.

Laser technology

The best value for your money, nanosecond Laser matches your needs, offering a perfect compromise between quality and speed perfect to answer most of your current challenges related to your specific surface texturing needs.

Movement type

Our Laser machine offers you the possibility to apply your desired texture on any 3D complex parts with the requested quality, thanks to our 5axis Laser ablation technology.

Get an answer to new market demands

With a digital process, it becomes easy to control texture continuity between two parts: With Laser texturing, be ready to have a homogenous product with no deviation from your design in terms of quality. Answer geometrical pattern demands: the control of each detail of these patterns is even more important as they are directly seen. With our solution, you control the orientation and size of each detail to suit your needs, down to the finest details.

Execute perfect texture profiles while saving time

Geometrical textures require perfect profile accuracy. With Smartpatch, our advanced patching generation, the software adapts the Laser patching strategy to the texture to be reproduced on an AgieCharmilles Laser texturing machine and situates patches at the best position to guarantee perfect execution of your operation while optimizing the patching to achieve an uncompromising level of quality and productivity. The program is executed with the Smartscan which drives the productivity of your hardware with intelligence and efficiency: Your program is executed at the optimal speed to push the productivity of your machine to the maximum.

Quickly simplify your processes

Execute multi operations in a single setup to save your time and simplify your manufacturing process. On the same machine, Laser blasting offers higher flexibility, precision and ease of use compared to sandblasting to boost quality and application possibilities while optimizing lead time. Laser engraving and Laser marking execute form operations which simplifies complex manufacturing process to save time. Laser texturing performs texturing operations to extend surface design possibilities and quality compared to manual processes.

Envision a secured manufacturing process

Surface texturing is at the last step in your process. Having an incorrect surface grain generated by a human error can compromise your part conformity. Substitute manual technologies and reduce non-quality costs. Experience the game-changing advantage of a digital technology: stable quality throughout your production.

Tire-dedicated solution

Raise your brand visibility on your tire mold with unique aestetic Laser texturing operations. Achieve the flexibility you need with a machine that easily engraves everything from bicycle to truck tire molds—without changing the way you work, thanks to our dedicated tire software module.

LASER P 4000 U - Go big, go Laser today

GF Machining Solutions’ revolutionary AgieCharmilles LASER P 4000 U allows automotive color and trim studios and product and interior design centers to take differentiation to new and higher levels. The machine makes mastering the most complex textures easy on even the biggest molds such as large positive molds, door panels, dashboards molds as example, thanks to a fully digital process coupled with a five-axis machining solution accepting molds of more than 22 tons.
