Very large 3D workpieces can be easily chop welded, and drilled with
the 5-axis 890 Laserdyne Beam Director from Lumonics Corp., Eden Prairie,
Minn. flat parts longer than any of the axes travels can be continued movemented
by the laser combination of parts to form a whole According to the company, the system's moving
bridge design is the lock opener to this flexibility.

Parts a great deal of larger than indicated by the axes travels can be advanceed
because the system positions the laser beam around the stationary
workpiece. Since the motion-control combination of parts to form a whole is tuned for a constant
mass, which is the system's moving bridge,
