The Space Gear U44 Hybrid, where affordability, meets flexibility, and intelligent design. Capable of high speed 2D processing, 3D cutting or pre-formed parts, and 3D-rotary cutting of tube, pipe, and structural.
Features
Mazak’s SPACE GEAR-U 44 delivers the flexibility to perform:
- High-speed 2D processing of sheet metal and plate
- 3D cutting of pre-formed parts
- 3D-rotary cutting of tube, pipe and structural
It is ideally suited for:
- fabrication job shops seeking to diversify their markets,
- parts suppliers supplying hydro-formed or stamped parts. and
- machine shops that are now machining thick plates or tubing
In rotary mode, the SG-U 44 performs 2D and 3D cutting of tube, including rectangular, round, and triangular pipe as well as C, H, I and L-beams within a 6.0 inch diameter. The 5-axis torch and simultaneously controlled chuck let the SG-U 44 fabricate – in one operation – precise angle cuts, weld-prep bevels and advanced contours such as saddle joint cuts. The 64-bit control incorporates illustrated fill-in-the-blank screens to quickly program such complex contours and other cuts.
PERFORMANCE ADVANTAGES
- With a small footprint, the SG-U 44 can process any length pipe and up to 4’x4’x7/8” sheet.
- The SPACE GEAR-U 44 is a compact and affordable all-in-one 2D/3D laser center for maximum flexibility. Use its triple-mode, 6-axis capabilities to expand your shop’s horizons and raise yourself above the competition.
- 2D mode is for flat sheet and plate cutting up to 49″ square and a full .87″.
- 3D mode brings into play Mazak’s compact cutting head with ±360º A-axis and ±135º B-axis CNC rotary motions to quickly cut, pierce, and trim sculpted parts. Process tubes, pipes, and structural shapes by adding a CNC rotary axis.
- SPACE GEAR-U 44 does much more than a 2D laser with rotary axis because of the added A- and B-axes angular capability.
