Coherent launches EDGE CUT20 OEM cutting solution. By deeply integrating the new CUT20 laser cutting head with EDGE FL20 fiber laser, this solution brings three core advantages to high-performance sheet metal cutting: ultimate precision cutting quality, unprecedented process control capability, and intelligent process insights.

 



At the heart of the EDGE CUT20 package is a co-engineered laser-and-optics architecture, designed from the ground up to operate in unison. This integration ensures unmatched alignment between beam delivery and optical performance, delivering maximum cutting speed, superior edge quality, and process stability across a wide range of materials and thicknesses.

The new CUT20 cutting head, engineered for laser powers up to 20 kW, features MZ functionality - combining Z-axis (focus-position) control with magnification (spot-size) adjustment. This capability gives the flexibility to optimize both focus and beam diameter independently and in real time, for consistent performance across varying materials and thicknesses without manual reconfiguration.

Enhancing the package further is SmartQD technology, which integrates process monitoring directly into the delivery fiber connector. SmartQD enables easy integration for pierce detection, loss-of-cut, and burn detection, providing real-time feedback without the need for external sensors.

"The EDGE CUT20 enables a new generation of intelligent laser-cutting systems,” said Dr. Stefan Ruppik, Global Vice President & General Manager CO2 & Fiber Lasers Business Unit at Coherent. "By co-engineering the solution as one ecosystem, we created a platform that helps OEMs deliver a more productive cutting performance.”

Built on the new EDGE FL fiber-laser platform, the EDGE CUT20 offers exceptional back-reflection resilience, modular scalability, and field-replaceable components for maximum uptime. Its compact, FPGA based design simplifies OEM integration and reduces total cost of ownership.

Coherent will showcase EDGE CUT20 at the 2025 Photonix exhibition in Tokyo, demonstrating its commitment to providing intelligent, high-power fiber laser cutting technology to global machine tool OEMs.
