BIW-3D Platform — Laser Cutting Solutions
Introduction
The BIW-3D Circular Concept introduces an innovative circular architecture that maximizes productivity while minimizing footprint.
The circular design features a single load/unload station, simplifying automation and reducing layout complexity.
Fast 120° indexing of the rotary table minimizes non-productive movements, helping maintain high throughput and efficient process flow.
- Reduced footprint. Compact circular architecture minimizes floor space while maintaining high productivity and throughput.
- Optimized process flow. Fast 120° indexing of the rotary table minimizes non-productive movements, helping maintain high throughput and efficient process flow.
- Simultaneous laser processing. Two high-power laser heads working simultaneously in each machining zone reduce idle waiting between stations and contribute effectively to the geometry and takt time of each part.

Machine architecture
Central rotary table
The central rotary table connects the different process positions through fast 120° indexing, enabling an efficient transfer of parts between stations.
Flexible processing configuration
Up to two working stations can be configured, with up to two processing units per station to adapt the system to different part and process requirements.
Single load/unload station
A single dedicated load/unload station simplifies part handling and automation while reducing overall layout complexity.
