The use of steel for structural applications is extremely significant and is estimated to grow in the future for residential and non-residential buildings.

The breakout of COVID-19 is causing major upheavals both in people's lives and in the manufacturing world. One of the main problems that even the most developed nations are facing is a shortage of personal protection equipment: masks, glasses, gowns, safety suits, fans, etc.

As needs shifts and applications become more demanding, machine tool manufacturers are challenged with the task of how to manage the evolving production changes, thus fostering the development of new technologies including optimization of cutting processes, improvement of material flow, part loading and unloading and better management of part repositioning during 3D laser cutting cycle.

“You can’t solve a problem on the same level that it was created. You have to rise above it to the next level.” 

This well-known quote by Albert Einstein captures a key concept for anyone wanting to gain a firm footing on today's ever-changing and competitive market that can be summed up as:

A 3D laser cutting robot system is developed to laser cut three-dimensional profiles and consists of an industrial robot (usually with 6 axes) with a 3D laser cutting head mounted at the end of the robotic arm.

LT-FREE is the BLM GROUP 3D laser system for processing any three-dimensional profile, curved, deep-drawn, hydroformed, pre-welded, flat or printed sheet metal alike. 

As a high-end system, LT-FREE utilizies technology similar to that of the products of other major players in the sector.

ArtCut is the programming software developed by BLM GROUP for the programming of its 3D laser cutting systems.

LT-FREE is a 3D laser cutting system that processes all three-dimensional metal parts: curved, hydroformed, preformed, pre-welded, drawn, flat and/or stamped sheet metal. 

LT-FREE is a 5-axis fiber laser cutting system designed by BLM GROUP for processing any 3D part:

• Any three-dimensional profile, including curved, hydroformed, flat or stamped sheet metal, pre-welded and pre-formed tubes.
• A wide variety of materials, such as mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, and copper alloys.
