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 Cell Series 1000 is a laser cell with an unusual axis set: X and Z linear axes with 300/500 mm of travel each, a B axis swinging +/-100 degrees, and a Q axis of +/-25 mm that is used for position correction. The table has no Y axis. A cell laid out this way is built for a seam that runs in one direction past the optics, with the Q axis holding the beam on the joint, and not for contouring flat sheet.
Two families of laser are listed. CO2 sources run from 3,200 W to 15,000 W. Solid-state sources, the TruDiode and TruDisk, run from 2,000 W to 8,000 W. The choice between them is the main configuration decision, since the axis figures are the same either way.
Those axis figures are modest. X and Z move at 30 m/min with an acceleration of 1.5 m/s², and the Q axis at 3 m/min. Positioning accuracy is 0.1 mm on the linear axes and 0.015 degrees on the B axis. That fits the job: the main axes set the position of the optics, and the Q axis then makes small corrections. The SeamLine sensor for seam tracking is an option, so plan on it if joint position varies from part to part.
Materials listed are steel, stainless steel, aluminum and non-ferrous metals, in thicknesses from 0.1 mm to several mm; the table gives no firmer upper limit. Travel is written as 300/500 mm without stating which variant has which, so confirm the travel when specifying. The control is a Trumpf integrated control.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
X, Z, B and Q. X and Z travel is listed as 300/500 mm, the B axis covers +/-100 degrees and the Q axis +/-25 mm. The Q axis is described as a position correction axis. No Y axis appears in the table.
02
Either a CO2 laser of 3,200 - 15,000 W or a solid-state laser of 2,000 - 8,000 W. The solid-state lasers named are the TruDiode and the TruDisk. The axis travel, speed and accuracy figures are the same for both.
03
X and Z run at 30 m/min with 1.5 m/s² of acceleration, and the Q axis at 3 m/min. Positioning accuracy is 0.1 mm for the linear axes and 0.015 degrees for the rotary axis.
04
Steel, stainless steel, aluminum and non-ferrous metals. The thickness range is given as 0.1 mm to several mm, with no exact upper limit, so ask Trumpf for the limit with the laser you are considering.
05
Seam tracking is listed with the SeamLine sensor, which is optional. The Q axis provides +/-25 mm of position correction at up to 3 m/min, which is the movement available for following a joint.
