Since 1993, Produtech has anticipated market trends and built deep expertise in metal coil processing. By pioneering the integration of coil feeding into laser cutting systems, Produtech has reshaped how sheet metal is cut—delivering greater efficiency and automation.
Traditional sheet-fed laser cutting machines fall short when it comes to flexibility and productivity. They require large inventories and constant manual loading, slowing down production.
To meet the growing demand for faster, more flexible, and fully automated manufacturing, Produtech has specialized in designing and delivering advanced laser coil systems that maximize output and streamline operations.
Produtech’s ISEO system is the result of decades of experience in coil sheet processing, originally developed through the production of automatic punching lines. Today, ISEO pushes the boundaries of productivity and versatility by integrating advanced laser coil cutting technology with fiber laser systems.
The ISEO range includes two distinct coil laser machine series, engineered to meet the specific needs of different manufacturing sectors. These systems combine the well-known advantages of coil-fed processing—such as continuous operation, reduced material waste, and enhanced control over part geometry—with the cutting-edge capabilities of fiber laser technology.
Unlike traditional CO₂ lasers, fiber laser systems offer continuous cutting across a wide range of metals, including highly reflective materials like copper, brass, bronze, and aluminum.
The absence of optical paths and focal lenses simplifies machine design and drastically reduces maintenance costs—resulting in both time and cost savings.Energy consumption is also significantly lower compared to CO₂ laser systems, offering further operational efficiency.
The ISEO fiber coil laser line also delivers superior performance on thin sheets—ideal for industries like insulation and light metal fabrication—by enabling faster starts and higher cutting speeds. In many cases, it outperforms traditional punching machines in both speed and autonomy.
In summary, ISEO represents a new standard in coil laser cutting, combining continuous coil feeding, minimal maintenance, and optimized part unloading to deliver unmatched productivity and flexibility across a wide array of applications.
Laser coil cutting is an advanced metal processing technique that involves cutting directly from coil using fiber laser technology.
Unlike traditional sheet-fed systems, which require pre-cut blanks and frequent loading interruptions, coil-fed laser systems work with continuous metal strips, enabling seamless, high-speed operations.
By feeding metal directly from coil into the cutting head, a coil laser system minimizes material handling and streamlines the entire production cycle.
This results in significant time savings, improved workflow, and optimized raw material usage. The ability to program complex geometries and perform high-precision cuts makes laser coil cutting ideal for modern manufacturing environments that require speed, accuracy, and flexibility.
Laser coil technology is used across a variety of industries where high-volume and high-precision metal cutting are essential. Key application sectors include:
Automotive: Structural components, brackets, and inner panels
HVAC and Insulation: Precision-cut thin sheets for thermal applications
Electrical Appliances: Enclosures and internal metal parts
Construction and Infrastructure: Panels, reinforcements, and custom profiles
Metal Furniture and Shelving: Consistent, repeatable cutting for high volumes
The benefits of implementing a coil laser cutting system include:
Higher Productivity: Continuous coil feeding eliminates downtime caused by manual sheet loading and setup changes.
Material Optimization: Working from coil enables better nesting and reduces scrap rates.
Greater Flexibility: Quick changeovers and programmable designs make it easy to switch between product variants.
Cleaner, Precise Cuts: Fiber laser heads deliver smooth edges without deformation or secondary processing.
Lower Operating Costs: Reduced labor, energy savings, and minimal maintenance contribute to a lower total cost of ownership.
Traditional blanking systems rely on mechanical stamping dies to cut predefined shapes from sheet metal.
While this method is effective for long production runs with limited part variety, it lacks flexibility and comes with high tooling costs.
Laser coil systems, on the other hand, offer a die-free alternative that excels in low-to-medium volume production, prototyping, and just-in-time manufacturing. Here’s how the two compare:
Feature | Traditional Blanking | Laser Coil Cutting |
---|---|---|
Tooling | Requires expensive dies | No dies required |
Flexibility | Low (fixed shapes) | High (programmable geometry) |
Changeover Time | Long | Minimal |
Material Waste | Higher due to fixed patterns | Optimized nesting reduces waste |
Maintenance | Regular die maintenance | Minimal (no dies or lenses in fiber systems) |
Material Types | Limited reflectivity tolerance | Works with high-reflectivity materials (aluminum, brass, copper) |
A coil laser system can cut a wide range of metals, including stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, copper, and brass—even highly reflective materials.
A laser coil system uses continuous coil feeding, eliminating the need for pre-cut sheets and manual loading—resulting in faster, more automated production.
Yes, coil laser cutting is ideal for thin materials, offering faster cutting speeds and better edge quality compared to mechanical methods like punching.
