Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main advantage of the Full Tower system?
The Full Tower combines automated laser loading and unloading with eight storage compartments. It is worth considering when several materials or scheduled jobs need to be available without repeated manual replenishment. Its value depends on the whole production flow, including how completed work is removed.
What is the largest sheet the Full Tower can handle?
The published maximum sheet format is 2,000 x 4,000 mm, with a maximum individual handling weight of 1,300 kg. These are separate checks: a sheet that fits the dimensions may still exceed the weight allowance. The paired laser must also accommodate the chosen sheet.
Can the Full Tower be used with an XR or XS laser?
The tower product page names both XR and XS ranges. The actual pairing depends on the laser size, interface and ordered configuration. A larger tower handling format does not increase the cutting area of a smaller laser, and existing installations need a separate compatibility assessment.
Does a Full Tower make unattended cutting possible?
It can form part of an unattended-production system, but storage alone is not enough. Material separation, cutting reliability, gas availability, extraction, alarms and the capacity to unload completed sheets all need assessing. Agree and validate an operating plan for the particular jobs you intend to run.
Does the Full Tower separate individual finished components?
Automatic transfer of a cut sheet is different from automatically separating and sorting its components. Plan how parts and the remaining skeleton will be cleared after unloading. This is especially important when nests contain small pieces, tipped parts or mixed orders that need separate identification.
How much building height should I allow for the Full Tower?
The published tower height is 6,015 mm. Treat that as an equipment dimension, not the total building-clearance requirement. Allow for installation, services, guarding and maintenance access, and check the complete laser-and-tower layout before committing to a location.
Can the Full Tower be added to an existing fibre laser?
Potential retrofits need a machine-specific assessment. Provide the laser model, serial number, control details and workshop layout so Selmach can review the interface and installation requirements. Do not assume that a previously supplied machine has every connection or software function required for tower integration.
Can Selmach arrange servicing and a Service Plan for the Full Tower?
Yes. Speak to Selmach about servicing and optional Service Plans for the laser and its Full Tower. The quotation should identify the automation equipment covered, your shift pattern and the chosen support level. A tower installation should not be assumed to be covered by an existing machine contract without checking its scope.
