Qihai Laser Expands Manufacturing Facilities for Large Format Sheet Metal Laser Cutting Machine Production

Qihai Laser Tech. Co., Ltd. has expanded its production facilities with approximately 20,000 square meters of additional workshop space. The expansion adds new machining equipment, enlarges two production and storage areas, and supports the company's ability to manufacture large format sheet metal laser cutting machines, including the 12025FD.

Expanded Manufacturing Space for Laser Equipment

The new workshop space increases the area available for manufacturing activities at the factory. Within the expansion, two areas have been enlarged in particular.

The first is the production area for handheld laser welding machines. More space is now available for the assembly and preparation of these machines, which allows the related work to be organised over a larger working area.

The second is the storage area for laser cutting machines. The expanded storage area provides more room for holding machines and for preparing equipment before shipment. This gives the factory more space to organise finished and in-progress units while they are being prepared for dispatch.

Together, the larger production and storage areas give the company more room to arrange its manufacturing work and to manage equipment as it moves through the production process.

Additional Equipment for Key Component Processing

The expansion also includes two new pieces of machining equipment that support the manufacture of laser cutting machine components.

A new gantry milling machine is used for machining the rail mounting positions and related fitting locations on laser cutting machine beds. A new aluminum profile machining center is used to machine the aluminum cross beams used in laser cutting machines.

These two additions bring part of the key component preparation work into the company's own machining area, and provide more control over the machining of these parts during production. Component preparation is an important stage in building a laser cutting machine, and having the relevant machining equipment available in-house supports a more organised production process.

Manufacturing Capability for the 12025FD Large Format Laser Cutting Machine

The new production space and machining equipment support the manufacture of the 12025FD Large Format Sheet Metal Laser Cutting Machine. The 12025FD has an effective cutting area of 12,000 × 2,500 mm (12 m × 2.5 m) and is intended for cutting large and heavy metal sheets.

Machines in this format are used where the sheet size or the workpiece requires a working area larger than a standard machine can provide. The larger area allows a full-size sheet to be placed on the machine and processed in one setup, which is relevant for manufacturers who work with large panels or heavy plate. Buyers can review the detailed specification on the 12025FD Large Format Sheet Metal Laser Cutting Machine product page.

Configuration and Components Across the Sheet Metal Laser Cutting Machine Range

Qihai sheet metal laser cutting machines are offered in a range of working formats, from 3 m × 1.5 m up to 12 m × 2.5 m, so that a machine can be matched to the sheet size a workshop actually handles. The range includes single-table and exchange-table versions, and both open-type and enclosed-type designs. Laser power is selected to suit the material and thickness to be cut, and bevel cutting is available as an optional function on the sheet metal models.

The machines are built around a standard set of components, which includes:

• Laser cutting head: BOCHU
• Laser source: MAX or RAYCUT (both options available)
• Servo motors: Delta, Inovance and other options
• Brake (reducer): MOTOVARIO
• Gear box (rack and pinion): YYC
• Pneumatic parts: SMC
• Chiller: TEYU

Specifying these components is part of matching a machine to a customer's production. Buyers can discuss the working format, table type, machine design and component options when they make an enquiry.

Supporting Industrial Buyers with Expanded Facilities

For industrial buyers, the value of an expansion like this lies in the production organisation behind the machine. More workshop space, additional machining equipment for key components, and a larger storage area give the manufacturer more room to organise production, prepare parts, and hold equipment as it is readied. These changes support the company's ability to prepare equipment for shipment and to discuss machine orders with customers.

The factory also produces other large format models, such as the QH-8025FD Large Format Sheet Metal Laser Cutting Machine (8,000 × 2,500 mm), for buyers whose work requires a different sheet length.
