Amada ENSIS-3015AJ vs Amada LCG-3015AJ
Amada vs Amada · CNC Laser Cutting
Summary
The Amada ENSIS-3015AJ and the Amada LCG-3015AJ are two Amada laser cutting machines of the same bed size, and on the figures published for both they are identical. Each has a working area of 3,070 x 1,550 mm (121 x 61 in), 100 mm (3.93 in) of Z-axis travel and rapids of 120 m/min (4,724 ipm), and each runs the AMNC 3i control with a touchscreen LCD.
So the table names no winner on any row. What separates the two is the work each is described for. The Amada ENSIS-3015AJ is aimed at mixed jobs that gain from automatic nozzle and focus changes, including thick mild steel. The Amada LCG-3015AJ is aimed at nested sheet parts, where rapid moves between parts set the travel time.

Advantages
Amada ENSIS-3015AJ
- Described for mixed jobs that gain from automatic nozzle and focus changes
- Described for thick mild steel plate as well as sheet
Amada LCG-3015AJ
- Described for nested sheet parts, where rapid moves between parts set the travel time
- No published row puts it behind the Amada ENSIS-3015AJ on working area, Z travel or rapids
Verdict
The table cannot pick between these two: working area, Z-axis travel, rapid traverse and control are the same on both. Decide on the kind of work. A shop cutting a mix of materials and thicknesses, including thick mild steel, should look first at the Amada ENSIS-3015AJ. A shop cutting nested sheet parts on a 3,070 x 1,550 mm (121 x 61 in) working area should look at the Amada LCG-3015AJ. Compare laser power and cutting capacity on each machine's own page.
