Mazak OPTIPLEX 3015 DDL vs Trumpf TruLaser 1030 Fiber
Yamazaki Mazak vs Trumpf · CNC Laser Cutting
Summary
The Mazak OPTIPLEX 3015 DDL and the Trumpf TruLaser 1030 Fiber are both flat-bed laser cutting machines for the same class of sheet. The X and Y rows look like a size gap, but the two listings name the axes the opposite way round. Long axis against long axis, the Mazak travels 3,110 mm (122.4 in) by 1,595 mm (62.8 in) and the Trumpf 3,000 mm (118 in) by 1,500 mm (59.1 in).
The clearer differences are weight and floor space. The Mazak OPTIPLEX 3015 DDL weighs 16,500 kg (36,376 lb) and occupies 10,000 x 6,100 mm (394 x 240 in). The Trumpf TruLaser 1030 Fiber weighs 9,400 kg (20,723 lb) and occupies 9,333 × 5,990 mm (367 × 236 in), with a listed height of 2,200 mm (86.6 in).

Advantages
Mazak OPTIPLEX 3015 DDL
- Slightly longer travels: 3,110 mm (122.4 in) and 1,595 mm (62.8 in) against 3,000 mm (118 in) and 1,500 mm (59.1 in)
- Direct diode laser suited to brass and copper sheet as well as mild steel, stainless steel and aluminum
Trumpf TruLaser 1030 Fiber
- Lighter machine at 9,400 kg (20,723 lb) against 16,500 kg (36,376 lb)
- Listed floor space of 9,333 × 5,990 mm against 10,000 x 6,100 mm
- Suits thin and medium sheet metal work, with occasional thick stainless steel cut from part-size blanks
Verdict
Both machines cut the same sheet format, so the travel rows should not decide this. The Trumpf TruLaser 1030 Fiber is the lighter and more compact installation, 9,400 kg (20,723 lb) on 9,333 × 5,990 mm, and suits thin and medium sheet metal work. The Mazak OPTIPLEX 3015 DDL, at 16,500 kg (36,376 lb), suits buyers assessing a used direct diode laser for mixed steel, aluminum, brass and copper sheet, who can verify its figures on the machine itself.
