WebPro Series

Innovative and Cost-Effective

Preco, Inc. integrates advanced laser technology with reliable equipment, offering innovative and cost-effective solutions for web-based laser cutting, scoring, slitting and kiss-cutting.

The WebPro Series of digital laser cutting systems are rapidly re-configured for changing job requirements and are the ideal match for short-run jobs in all sizes and materials. The AcuBeam™ control system operates in a user-friendly Windows® environment, allowing you to control the entire system. As a result, changeovers are as simple as opening a file without the need or costs of tooling.

Applications

Advanced Wound Care
Body Sensors & Wearables
Cosmetics – Hydrogel Face Masks
Flexible Circuits

Food Safety Devices
Microfluidics
Point-of-care, diagnostic test strips

Fast speeds with an exclusive design.

This unique system allows you to laser process web widths from 25.4 mm to 610 mm (1 - 24 in.) at high production rates. Our exclusive motion design processes materials at speeds 9.14 m to 60.96 m (30 - 200 ft.) per minute, while maintaining consistent PLI across the entire process. Typical accuracies range ± 0.076 mm to 0.254 mm (0.003 - 0.010 in.) based on part size and geometry.

Preco's WebPro Fast & Precise Laser Processing

The WebPro incorporates 200, 300, 400, 600 or 1000 watt CO₂ lasers with 9.3 to 10.6 µm wavelengths, as well as UV lasers. These lasers offer a reliable, precise beam that results in clean and sharp laser processed edges.

Features & Benefits

Just some of the many benefits of buying a Preco WebPro Series laser machine.

Fast Processing Speed

Cuts parts from moving webs for maximum production rates

Soft tooling process, that is 'flexible'

Eliminates tool and die fabrication, maintenance, and storage costs

AcuVision

Registers parts before processing and aligns cut pattern to fiducials - either printed or mold marks. Inspection of parts available after processing for 100% quality control

Easy to use Windows^® Based Software

Enables make-to-order processing of short-run or complex jobs

Ramp Up – Ramp Down Control

Eliminates scrap caused by overpowering of material at slower than normal processing speeds

Laser Cutting is a Forceless Process

Produces intricate patterns and fine details. Superior part quality that cannot be replicated using the die cut process

Vision Registration System

Single or dual cameras for X-Y-Ø positioning of the cut pattern to material features

Patented AcuPower™ Control

Adjustment of laser power "on-the-fly" based on the beam movement

Job Database

Reduces set-up time; consistent production from operator to operator
