Our best estimate for a cnc laser cutting machine in this class — not a quote from Amada. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The Amada BREVIS 1212 AJ is a compact fibre laser cutting machine: 3000 W of laser power over a square 1270 × 1270 mm working range, in a machine 3088 mm long, 2389 mm wide and 1900 mm high. It weighs 4800 kg.

The footprint is the point. Amada's ENSIS 3015 AJe, a full-sheet machine that starts at the same 3000 W, lists a 3070 x 1550 mm working range, a length of 9810 mm with its shuttle table and a weight of 9100 kg. The BREVIS puts roughly half that weight and a third of that length onto the floor, and in exchange it cuts blanks and part-sheets, not full-format sheet.

Table load is the figure to check first. The maximum is 150 kg, against 920 kg on the ENSIS 3015 AJe, so material that is both thick and full-size for the 1270 × 1270 mm range has to be weighed before it goes on. The Z working range is 200 mm, twice the 100 mm the ENSIS 3015 AJe lists, which leaves headroom for parts that are not flat, such as formed blanks or shallow boxes held in a fixture.

Rapid traverse is given as 40 / 40 / 60 m/min. The row holds three values and does not label them by axis. The table lists a single 3000 W power level and gives no cutting thickness, accuracy or power supply rows, so capacity in a given material should be confirmed with Amada against the actual job.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Footprint of 3088 mm by 2389 mm, 1900 mm high, for shops without room for a full-sheet laser
Machine weight of 4800 kg, against 9100 kg for the 3000 W ENSIS 3015 AJe
200 mm of Z working range leaves room for fixtures and non-flat parts
3000 W fibre laser with rapid traverse listed at 40 / 40 / 60 m/min

Limitations

Working range is 1270 × 1270 mm, so standard full sheets must be cut down first
Table load is limited to 150 kg; the ENSIS 3015 AJe lists 920 kg
Only one power level, 3000 W, is listed, where the ENSIS 3015 AJe is offered from 3000 W to 15000 W
No maximum cutting thickness or accuracy figure is listed

Best For

Small parts and blanks within a 1270 × 1270 mm working range Workshops with limited floor space: 3088 mm by 2389 mm Prototype and short-run cutting on a 3000 W fibre laser Formed or fixtured parts using up to 200 mm of Z

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What sheet size does the BREVIS 1212 AJ cut?

The working range is 1270 × 1270 mm in X and Y, with 200 mm in Z. Larger standard sheets need to be sheared or cut down to fit. The table can carry a maximum of 150 kg, which limits the thickness of a full-size blank.

02 How much floor space does the BREVIS 1212 AJ need?

The machine is 3088 mm long, 2389 mm wide and 1900 mm high, and weighs 4800 kg. Those are the machine's own dimensions; space for loading, access and service is extra and is not given in the table.

03 What laser power does the BREVIS 1212 AJ have?

A single level of 3000 W is listed, from a fibre laser. Amada's larger ENSIS 3015 AJe is listed at 3000 W, 6000 W, 9000 W, 12000 W and 15000 W, so the BREVIS matches the entry power of that range. No maximum thickness per material is listed for the BREVIS.

04 How does the BREVIS 1212 AJ compare with the ENSIS 3015 AJe?

The ENSIS 3015 AJe is a full-sheet machine with a 3070 x 1550 mm working range, a 920 kg table load and a weight of 9100 kg at 3000 W. The BREVIS 1212 AJ has a 1270 × 1270 mm working range, a 150 kg table load and weighs 4800 kg. Its Z range is the larger of the two, 200 mm against 100 mm on the ENSIS 3015 AJe.

05 How fast does the BREVIS 1212 AJ move between cuts?

The rapid traverse row reads 40 / 40 / 60 m/min. It gives three values without naming the axes, so ask Amada which figure belongs to which axis if positioning time matters for the parts being nested.
