How much does the Baykal BLS PRO cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Baykal BLS PRO that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Overview

The Baykal BLS PRO is Baykal's main production fiber laser, built in working areas from 2,000 to 4,000 mm (78.7 to 157.5 in) wide and 3,000 to 15,000 mm (118.1 to 590.6 in) long with 6 kW to 15 kW of laser power. It comes with one of two drive systems, and that choice changes most of the performance rows in the table.

The first version has a Wittenstein rack and pinion on X and a Bosch Rexroth linear motor on Y, with Beckhoff rotary servos. It is listed at 115 m/min rapid traverse, 165 m/min vector speed, 2.2G (22 m/s²) and ±0.02 mm for both positioning accuracy and repeatability. The second version uses linear motors on X and Y. Its figures are 150 m/min, 215 m/min, 3.0G (30 m/s²) and ±0.01 mm. Programmable feed rate is up to 100 m/min on the first and up to 125 m/min on the second.

A Precitec ProCutter 2.0 is the standard head. With 6 kW the capacity table gives 25 mm (0.98 in) of mild steel and 16 mm (0.63 in) of stainless; with 15 kW it gives 45 mm (1.77 in) and 40 mm (1.57 in). Aluminum follows stainless closely at the higher powers. Baykal's product page speaks of 6 to 20 kW, while the data sheet's laser power row stops at 15 kW, so check which sources are current.

The transfer table is a motorized automatic exchange. It carries 2,500 kg (5,512 lb) in the 2000x4000 mm size and 3,500 kg (7,716 lb) in the 2000x6000 mm size. A bevel cutting head, an automatic nozzle changer and the fume extractor are all options.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are the two drive versions of the BLS PRO?

One has a Wittenstein rack and pinion on the X axis and a Bosch Rexroth linear motor on Y, with Beckhoff rotary servos. The other has Bosch Rexroth linear motors on X and Y with Beckhoff linear servo drives. The linear version is the faster and more accurate of the two.

02 How fast is the BLS PRO?

The rack and pinion version is listed at 115 m/min rapid traverse, 165 m/min vector speed and 2.2G (22 m/s²). The X + Y linear version is listed at 150 m/min, 215 m/min and 3.0G (30 m/s²). Programmable feed rates are up to 100 m/min and up to 125 m/min.

03 What sizes is the BLS PRO built in?

The working area is 2,000 to 4,000 mm (78.7 to 157.5 in) wide and 3,000 to 15,000 mm (118.1 to 590.6 in) long. Table load is 2,500 kg (5,512 lb) for the 2000x4000 mm size and 3,500 kg (7,716 lb) for 2000x6000 mm.

04 What thickness can the BLS PRO cut?

At 6 kW: 25 mm (0.98 in) mild steel, 16 mm (0.63 in) stainless, 12 mm (0.47 in) aluminum. At 15 kW: 45 mm (1.77 in) mild steel and 40 mm (1.57 in) in both stainless and aluminum. Copper is listed at 15 mm (0.59 in) and brass at 20 mm (0.79 in) with 15 kW.

05 Is bevel cutting available on the BLS PRO?
