Message from Universal Laser Systems All Universal Laser Systems are custom built to ensure the right system is configured to best fit your current and future needs. All accessories and lasers use interchangeable components, giving you the ability to tailor your custom built system for different applications.
The new VLS3.60ES is a compact desktop laser system designed for multi-user environments such as educational settings, laboratories, and shared spaces within businesses. For operators, it offers a rich set of features and capabilities that enhance productivity, operational efficiency, usability, and safety. For administrators, it provides access control and support capabilities to effectively monitor and manage system use and performance.
The VLS 3.60ES laser system features a 24 x 12-inch (610 x 305 mm) material processing area equipped with an integrated camera vision system to aid users in precisely aligning design files with materials placed on the laser processing support surface. The desktop is driven by the user-friendly, yet powerful control software, Laser System Manager, with capabilities beneficial for beginning and advanced users as well as administrators such as:
With advanced diagnostic, reporting and troubleshooting tools, errors can be rapidly diagnosed and resolved for more uptime. Features include Enhanced Error Detection and Diagnostics and Remote Troubleshooting. Additionally, its robust design and set of safety features help minimize potential hazards for safe laser processing. Safety features include laminated safety glass, redundant safety interlocks, Overtemperature Detection Alarm, Emergency Stop (E-Stop) Push Button, and Enhanced Fault Detection to monitor the status of the laser source and any accessories installed. For added protection, an optional Fire Suppression Assistance Module is also available.
Design files can be created on any computer or device with common design software. Supported file types include PDF, DXF, BMP, JPG, Tiff, PNG, SVG and G-Code. A design file can be transferred through a device connected to the network or via the computer (Windows PC or Macintosh) connected to the laser system through physical media such as a jump drive.
An ever-evolving, integrated repository of laser processing settings for hundreds of compatible materials. The Intelligent Materials Database interface, displayed to the operator via the control software, is intuitive and flexible. Users select a material and input just a few parameters within the control software to quickly and easily begin laser processing. The database automatically calculates the needed laser system settings based on inputs of material type, material thickness and desired processes such as cutting, engraving and marking.
High Power Density Focusing Optics (HPDFO) use a patented method to focus the laser’s energy to an extremely small focal spot. It drastically improves resolution in laser marking and engraving to achieve finer detailed results. Additionally, it provides sufficient energy density for direct marking of bare metals with a CO2 laser. The extremely small spot size also provides a narrow kerf for laser cutting of thin materials.
1-Touch Laser Photo is a unique ULS software application that processes photo image files to make almost any photograph compatible with laser material processing.
