In response to opportunities in today’s competitive market place DMS has invested in the latest laser processing equipment and have installed the LVD HELIUS 2513

This latest generation of cutting machines uses a high-powered CO2 laser as a cutting tool to give high accuracy, quality and with cost effective performance.

DMS can offer a faster, more complete, and a cost-effective service, backed up by a reputation for quality, reliability and integrity.

Many of our customers prefer to use a single source and DMS can provide innovative laser technology services backed up by expertise in a comprehensive range of allied skills, these include fabrication, sheet metal work, welding, machining and complete sub assembly production.

We offer the highest quality profiles, coupled with excellent quality control during all phases of the order procurement cycle.

Manufacturers and engineers can benefit from the highly finished dross free cut surface, which requires little or no finishing prior to fabrication or assembly.

Manufacturers, material stockists and suppliers can enjoy the benefits of the laser process without high capital investment in equipment or a skilled work force.

With our flexible and adaptable approach we can offer a solution to your profiling requirements.

Accurate and intricate shapes can be cut in a wide variety of materials eliminating the need for machining drilling and dressing.

Laser cutting is faster than traditional profiling and will often be competitive on cost alone.

The Laser produces a highly finished cut surface, generally no further work is required.

From one off prototypes to production quantities lead times are reduced and employing computer control eliminates expensive tooling costs.

Dimensions can be met to within a tolerance on 0.1mm exact reproductions can be guaranteed.

Virtually no distortion is caused due to low heat input.

Pre-formed components, box sections and tube can be cut.

Sophisticated computer software allows complex profiles to be laser cut from a variety of customer inputs, a hand drawn sketch, detailed engineering drawing, scanned images or DXF files.

Retention of customer drawing files facilitates cost effective design changes and repeatability.

The Helius is a three axis machine, a characteristic of which is the long travel of the vertical Z axis which is essential for the cutting of pre-formed components, sections, channels etc.

This machine uses a laser sensor for flexible referencing by non contact scanning, after the measurement of fixed points the control calculates the position of the item relative to the machine itself, internal translation and rotation by the control system insures that the machine co-ordinates correspond with those of the plate.

The laser sensor is particularly useful for picking up on or locating of pre punched references and datum points.

The Fanuc 16LB CNC control is one of the most advanced systems available this guarantees perfect reproduction of programmed contours even on sharp edges or acute angles at high speed.

Most finishes can be laser marked with names, part numbers, serial numbers or logos the marking is clear, burr free and permanent the process causes no mechanical deformation of the work piece and uneven or inaccessible surfaces can be marked.
