Trotec has introduced the Q500, a new laser cutter, to its Q series which features a working area of up to 1300mm x 900mm and laser power of up to 120 watts for the efficient cutting and engraving of a variety of materials.
Using Trotec’s tried and tested OptiMotion™ control system adapted from the manufacturer’s flagship Speedy range of engravers, the new Q500 cutter delivers a maximum processing speed of 2m/s without compromising on quality and delivers fine engravings up to a font size of 4pt. Productivity is unrivalled when it comes to achieving high quality at high speed.
The Q500 is available with two different laser source options to ensure optimum results depending on the application. The 60-120W power DC CO2 glass tube model is perfect for laser cutting applications, while the dual-source model, which also features a 60W CeramiCore® RF CO2 source, enhances speed and reliability for applications that involve a lot of engraving.
Alongside robust and innovative Austrian engineering, the Q500 cutting system uses Trotec’s JobControl™ software, which acts as a print driver and is compatible with a wide range of graphic design programs. The system is also available with Trotec’s JobControl™ Vision software, enabling the effortless and accurate processing of pre-printed materials.
The new Q500 provides improved quality and speed compared to Trotec’s entry-level R500 model, which has the same 1300mm x 900mm bed size while not including all of the features found in the more advanced SP series of large format laser cutters.
The new laser system is fully supported by Trotec’s UK subsidiary with extended warranty options and training available, as well as ongoing support from the company’s large UK-based technical service and support team.
Trotec has six showrooms across the UK and Ireland where the Q500 can be demonstrated and online demonstrations are also available by way of video link. For more information, use the contact details below to get in touch with the team.
