The Morgan Rushworth XSM range of CNC fibre lasers are available in a range of bed sizes and features a moving laser cutting cabin to allow the largest potential cutting area while maintaining a relatively compact footprint for the overall machine. Class leading components ensure superior cut quality, high reliability and reduced down time.

The range covers from 3kw up to 20kw which with the high performance rack and pinion system for X & Y axis and a rigid gantry and frame structure, resulting in fast acceleration, fast positioning speeds and fast cutting times. Optionally machines can be fitted with linear motors and guides for even greater acceleration. A user friendly touch screen CNC control allows parts to be programmed on the screen or imported from an office PC, providing flexible modes of operation.

The Morgan Rushworth XSM range of fibre lasers are offered in a wide range of different bed sizes, with widths from 2 – 4ms,  and lengths anywhere from 6 all the way to 24m! The machines can be equipped with an assortment of different kW Laser Sources too.

Precitec ProCutter 2.0

The new ProCutter 2.0 generation impresses with its increased performance and new automation features. Faster, easier, more efficient, more enduring this is how laser cutting is shaping up in the new generation, due to numerous developments.

nLight Resonators

nLIGHT alta™ compact fibre lasers are the next generation of high power fibre lasers. Designed to meet the performance and reliability requirements for industrial applications, nLIGHT alta™ compact is the highest power, smallest footprint fibre laser. nLIGHT alta™ is capable of delivering a modulation rate up to 100 kHz and rise and fall time of less than 5s. Enabled by next generation electronics, these capabilities allow faster piercing, faster processing of fine features, and smaller heat affected zones.

LANTEK: Expert Cut II

LANTEK CAD/CAM system is specially designed to automate the programming of sheet metal cutting machines. Lantek software’s significant advance is meeting requirements of customers for managing sheet metal work process. The system will enable the user to carry out the following tasks:

  • Import the parts to be cut in various ways (DXF format, ESSI format, etc.).
  • Draw the parts with its user friendly drawing module.
  • Import duct figures from other systems by means of ASCII files.
  • Freely define the shape of the parts to be cut.
  • Arrange all the parts generated on sheets manually or automatically and generate the cutting sequence for each one.
  • Print standard or fully customized lists in order to provide estimates, VOB, frames list, delivery notes, workshop sheets, etc.
  • Export the results to DXF format, ASCII tables, etc.
  • Generate CNC programs automatically to transmit to the machines.

Moving Cabin System

Rather than the traditional exchange tables of a 2 table laser, the moving cabin system of the XSM means there is just one large table, and the cutting cabin travels over the length of the bed. This means you can fit a relatively large laser into a much smaller footprint compared to an equivalent machine with an exchange table system. The system can be increased in length by increments of 1m compartments. The cabin utilises a dual linear rail system for both the cabin and the bridge gantry of the laser cutter, further minimising the footprint of the overall machine.

Cabin Parking Area

Rather than the space of a 2nd table, there is instead a cabin parking area the width of the table and 4m deep. This is where the cabin will “rest” between jobs, allowing full forklift or crane access to the cutting table for loading fresh sheets and unloading all of the cut-parts and skeleton.

Automatic Nozzle Changer

The optional Automatic Nozzle changing system is a game changer, allowing for fast and efficient cutting of multiple material sizes or thicknesses. Fast, efficient and labour-free, this speeds up production speeds and minimises the potential for human error.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the XSM different from a conventional sheet laser?

The XSM is a large-format fibre laser with a moving cutting cabin over a single table. It is aimed at work that needs a longer or wider cutting area than standard sheet machines. Assess it against your largest one-piece components and the practical handling of those sheets.

What bed sizes are available in the XSM range?

The published range covers bed lengths from 6 to 24 metres and widths from 2 to 4 metres. The final configuration needs to match both the material and the building. Large-format capacity is only useful when loading, support and removal of the finished components are practical.

Can an XSM reduce the need to join smaller laser-cut pieces?

A larger bed can allow an oversized component to be cut as one piece where suitable stock is available. Whether that is the best route depends on material cost, part flatness, transport and downstream fabrication. Send the complete drawing so these trade-offs can be assessed before choosing the format.

How should laser power be selected for an XSM?

The listed range spans 3 kW to 20 kW. Choose around the materials and thicknesses that dominate production, the required finish and realistic cycle times. Bed length and laser power solve different problems; a large component does not automatically require the highest-power source.

Can the XSM be specified for bevel cutting?

Yes. CNC bevel cutting up to 45 degrees is listed as an option. Confirm the head, programming package and proposed weld preparation during specification. A bevelled edge needs a separate process assessment from a straight cut through the same material thickness.

Which XSM productivity options are worth considering?

Listed options include linear-motor drives, automatic nozzle changing and material-handling equipment. Select them against the interruptions in your own process. For example, reducing sheet-handling delays may be more useful than increasing motion performance when most of the shift is spent loading or clearing work.

What needs special attention when installing a large XSM?

Plan sheet storage, crane or lifting access, the complete travel envelope, extraction, floor requirements and routes for long finished parts. Review the proposed installation around your building and production flow rather than allowing only the nominal bed dimensions.

Can I arrange servicing and a Service Plan for the XSM?

Yes. Selmach provides servicing and offers optional Service Plans for the XSM. Ask us to quote a plan around your machine and production hours. Servicing frequency, support and call-out provision depend on the selected cover and agreed terms; a Service Plan is separate from the machine purchase unless expressly included.
