Flying Optic Laser Helps Iowa Shop Soar: The owner of an Iowa fabricating shop got more than sore feet at the last IMTS, he got a piece of equipment that changed the future of his business - a laser

摘要

At Janco Industries (Sully, IA), Joel Jansen had a thriving business, making various structures in mild and some stainless steel for the agricultural, food processing, foodservice and construction industries. But when he visited IMTS in Chicago in 2004, he saw something that changed his view on his company and its future. That something was the ECHO III flying optic laser from Han Kwang USA. Jansen admits he had looked into laser cutting in the past, but the Korea-made machine had some noticeable differences from other units on the market. One feature was the Panasonic resonator (the laser beam generator), which had significant upsides in running and maintenance costs. In addition to the precision flying optics design, it could make more complex metal parts with holes and cutouts in less time with its twin linear drive motor system.
