Our best estimate for a cnc laser cutting machine in this class — not a quote from Trumpf. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Trumpf TruLaser 3040 is a flatbed laser cutting machine with a 4,000 x 2,000 mm (157.5 x 78.7 in) working area and a solid-state laser listed in five power options: 3 kW / 4 kW / 6 kW / 8 kW / 10 kW. Simultaneous axis speed is 170 m/min (6,693 ipm).
Thickness figures are listed for two of the five powers. At 6 kW the table gives 25 mm (1.0 in) for mild steel, stainless steel and aluminum alike, and 10 mm (0.39 in) for copper and brass. At 10 kW stainless steel rises to 30 mm (1.18 in), copper to 15 mm (0.59 in) and brass to 12 mm (0.47 in). Nothing is listed for the 3 kW, 4 kW or 8 kW sources, and there is no 10 kW figure for mild steel or aluminum, so those gaps need a direct answer for the machine in front of you.
The bed is rated for a 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) workpiece, or 3,300 kg (7,275 lb) in the heavy-duty version. Find out which version a given machine is before planning full-size plate at the thick end of the range.
Average power consumption is listed at 15 kW for the 6 kW source and 25 kW for the 10 kW source, which is the pair of figures to give your electrician. The machine stands 2,280 mm (89.8 in) high and weighs 9,700 kg (21,385 lb). The control is listed as Trumpf proprietary with a touchscreen HMI.
