Price estimate
We do not have a price for the CHMER PL4030 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 CHMER PL4030 is the smallest of CHMER's PL series, which the maker's catalogue titles high precision linear motor drive laser cutting machines. It cuts thin material, 0.05-2.0 mm (0.002-0.079 in), over a processing size of 400 x 300 mm (15.7 x 11.8 in).
This is not a sheet-metal fabrication laser. The thickness range and the small table point to precision parts cut from foil and thin plate, where a wire EDM or an etching process might otherwise be used. Z travel is 120 mm (4.7 in), and the X and Y axes run at up to 15 m/min (591 ipm).
CHMER's page gives no laser source or laser power for the model, only a power consumption of 2-8 kVA, so the source options have to come from the quotation. The machine weighs 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) and measures 1,600 x 2,250 x 2,060 mm.
