Cincinnati Incorporated Introduces Compact Fiber Laser
According to Cincinnati Incorporated, the CLi is an ideal starting laser that has all the functions necessary for shops that want to make parts rather than outsource.
Cincinnati Incorporated (CI) recently introduced the CLi, a fiber laser with a compact footprint and reduced price.
According to CI, the CLi is an ideal starting laser that has all the functions necessary for shops that want to make parts rather than outsource.
“If cost-effectiveness is the goal, the recommendation used to be that you should pick up a used CO2 laser,” says Troy Wilson, CNC table products product manager. “But with the CLi, you can get a new fiber laser for the price of a used CO2. Capabilities and reliability are a whole lot higher.”
The CLi is said to be user friendly and easily operable due to its human-machine interface (HMI) control and dual screen Windows-based interface. The 5' × 5' table is packed into an compact 10' × 11' footprint.
“The CLi lets OEMs that don’t need a lot of sheet metal control their own destinies,” Wilson says. “You get your own 5' × 5' that builds parts when you need them so you don’t have to wait weeks or months for those same parts.”
