Program controlled complex of laser cutting marine engineering articles

The program controlled complex is intended for production of tube sheets of heat exchange apparatus and performing of internal girth welds during manufacturing ship engines cases.

The robotic complex is equipped with two special purpose heads including optical scanning head and optical head for welding in hard-to-reach places to perform process operations. 8 kW fiber optical laser is applied as a source.
