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 FOM2-3015 is a CO2 laser cutting machine: an RF-excited 4,000 W resonator over a 3,048 x 1,524 mm (120 x 60 in) work area, with a dual-pallet shuttle table for loading and unloading. It is not part of Amada's current lineup, so most readers will be looking at a second-hand machine, and the numbers here are the listed figures to verify on the machine itself.

The thickness limits are uneven across materials. Mild steel is listed to 25 mm (0.98 in), but stainless stops at 12 mm (0.47 in) and aluminum at 8 mm (0.31 in). A shop cutting mostly carbon steel plate gets the full range. One with a lot of aluminum will reach the 8 mm ceiling quickly. Copper and brass do not appear in the table at all.

Axis speed is listed at 120 m/min with 1.0 G acceleration. Positioning accuracy is ±0.05 mm (±0.002 in) and repeatability ±0.025 mm (±0.001 in). The control is the Amada AMNC-F.

On thick work the shuttle table does more for output than axis speed does: one pallet can be cleared and reloaded while the other is under the beam. Machine weight is 12,000 kg (26,455 lb). For scale, the ENSIS 3015 AJe is listed at 9100 kg to 9700 kg across its 3000 W to 12000 W versions, so the FOM2-3015 is the heavier installation despite its single 4,000 W power level.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Mild steel is listed to 25 mm (0.98 in) with the 4,000 W RF-excited CO2 resonator
Dual-pallet shuttle table lets one sheet be loaded or unloaded while another is cut
Repeatability of ±0.025 mm (±0.001 in) and positioning accuracy of ±0.05 mm (±0.002 in)
Axis speed listed at 120 m/min with 1.0 G acceleration

Limitations

Aluminum is listed at only 8 mm (0.31 in) and stainless at 12 mm (0.47 in)
One power level, 4,000 W, with no higher option in the table
No copper or brass thickness is listed
12,000 kg (26,455 lb), heavier than the 9100 kg listed for the ENSIS 3015 AJe at 3000 W

Best For

Mild steel plate up to the listed 25 mm (0.98 in) Sheet within a 3,048 x 1,524 mm (120 x 60 in) work area Stainless up to 12 mm (0.47 in) and aluminum up to 8 mm (0.31 in) Runs where a second pallet keeps the machine cutting during unloading

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What type of laser does the FOM2-3015 use?

The listed laser is an RF-excited CO2 type rated at 4,000 W. It is the only power level in the table. The machine is controlled by the Amada AMNC-F.

02 How thick can the FOM2-3015 cut?

The listed maximums are 25 mm (0.98 in) in mild steel, 12 mm (0.47 in) in stainless and 8 mm (0.31 in) in aluminum. No figure is given for copper or brass, so do not assume the machine is suited to them.

03 Does the FOM2-3015 have a shuttle table?

Yes. A dual-pallet shuttle table for loading and unloading is listed. The work area is 3,048 x 1,524 mm (120 x 60 in). On a second-hand machine, check that both pallets and the exchange mechanism are present and working.

04 How accurate is the FOM2-3015?

Positioning accuracy is listed at ±0.05 mm (±0.002 in) and repeatability at ±0.025 mm (±0.001 in). Axis speed is 120 m/min and acceleration 1.0 G. These are the listed figures for the model, so a specific machine should be measured before purchase.
