LAZIRON FB Bevel Laser Cutting Machine

The LAZIRON bevel laser cutting machine is the solution that eliminates the extra beveling operation after cutting. The cutting head tilts automatically between -45° and +45°, producing A, V, Y, X and K bevels in the same pass, all ready for welding with no manual touch-up.

Built on the industrial architecture of the GM series (RayTools head with capacitive autofocus, Cypcut control, Raycus/Max/IPG fiber laser source), this LAZIRON bevel laser cutting machine delivers premium-grade quality at an investment that even medium-sized metal fabrication shops, shipyards or welded-structure workshops can afford.

What makes the LAZIRON FB a bevel laser cutting machine built for real production

The LAZIRON FB bevel laser cutting machine combines in a single system the advantages that matter on the production line: repeatable precision, parameter automation, predictable operating costs and a long service life for the critical components.

• Tilting cutting head ±45°, produces V, Y, X, K and combined bevels in a single pass, with no need to remove the part or perform secondary machining on another machine.
• Fiber laser power 3 to 12 kW, compatible with Raycus, Max or IPG sources, cuts carbon steel up to 30 mm with an edge prepared directly for welding.
• Cypcut software with 3D CAM modules, automatically calculates the toolpaths for tilted cuts and compensates the beam angle relative to the part plane.
• RayTools head with capacitive autofocus, maintains optimal focus even when the head works tilted at 45°, preventing quality variations along the edge.
• Vibration-resistant reinforced frame, keeps the geometric precision at ±0.05 mm throughout the entire stroke, essential for angled cuts where deviation is amplified.
• Dual-circuit S&A cooling, keeps the temperature of the laser source and the optics constant over long cycles, extending the service life beyond the declared 100,000 hours.
• CE-certified viewing panels, allow process monitoring without exposure to laser radiation and align the machine with EU safety requirements.

Technical specifications, LAZIRON FB bevel laser cutting machine

This LAZIRON bevel laser cutting machine is available in standardized configurations, the choice being made according to the mix of processed materials and the workshop's monthly production volume.

Industries that use a LAZIRON bevel laser cutting machine

A LAZIRON bevel laser cutting machine is built for the industries that deliver welded components with strict edge-preparation requirements: shipyards, manufacturers of containers and pressure vessels, steel structure factories and industrial boiler workshops.

In shipyards, Y and K bevels on 15-25 mm plates are critical for the structural welds of the ship's hull. A single LAZIRON FB bevel laser cutting machine eliminates the separate beveling operation with an angle grinder or a dedicated machine, shortening the workflow by 30-40% per component and reducing the cost of preparation labor.

Manufacturers of heavy machinery, storage tanks and energy equipment use the same principle: a single pass of the tilted head replaces two or three traditional operations and ensures consistent edge quality, essential for weld penetration.

Materials compatible with a LAZIRON bevel laser cutting machine

Configurable with fiber laser sources between 3 and 12 kW, every LAZIRON LAZIRON FB bevel laser cutting machine processes the metals commonly used in welded structures, with no interchangeable heads and no downtime between materials.

The RayTools head switches parameters automatically from Cypcut, and the anti-back-reflection protection allows safe cutting of reflective materials when needed.

Maximum thicknesses per material (in the maximum configuration)

• Carbon steel (with 45° bevel): up to 30 mm
• Stainless steel: up to 16 mm
• Aluminum: up to 12 mm
• Low-alloy steel (S355, S420): up to 25 mm

How the LAZIRON FB model works

The workflow of a LAZIRON LAZIRON FB bevel laser cutting machine is built as a single continuous operation, from loading the raw sheet to the finished part with an edge prepared for welding.

1. The operator loads the sheet onto the cutting table and sets the origin in Cypcut through automatic edge scanning.
2. The cutting program is generated in 3D CAM from the part's DXF plus the bevel type (V, Y, X, K) and the material thickness.
3. Cypcut calculates the automatic compensation of the beam angle and the head position relative to the reference plane.
4. The RayTools head tilts to the programmed angle and traces the part's contour with continuous autofocus on the tilted edge.
5. The anti-collision system permanently monitors the distance between the nozzle and the material, stopping the head automatically in case of an obstacle.
6. At the end, the part is unloaded with a beveled edge ready for welding, without grinding or secondary machining.

For integration with other metalworking equipment, the machine connects natively to the press brakes and to the other LAZIRON lines through a common MES.

Frequently asked questions about the bevel laser cutting machine

What types of bevels can a LAZIRON FB bevel laser cutting machine produce in a single pass?

The head, tilting to ±45°, allows cutting in A bevel (single), V (symmetric), Y (asymmetric with a straight face), X (double symmetric) and K (double asymmetric). All of them are programmable directly from Cypcut and can be combined on the same part, eliminating the need for a second edge-preparation operation before welding.

How much do I save compared to the classic cutting + grinding process?

On a typical beveling workflow for a 20 mm carbon steel plate for a crown weld, a LAZIRON FB bevel laser cutting machine replaces two operations (cutting plus angle grinding or milling). The real savings reported by our integrators are between 35% and 50% per cycle, thanks to the elimination of dedicated labor and abrasive consumables.

What laser source power should I choose for a bevel laser cutting machine?

For beveling on sheets under 12 mm, the 6 kW source is optimal. For shipbuilding, pressure vessels and heavy structures where cutting above 20 mm with a double K bevel is frequent, choose 12 kW. The 3 kW configuration is only justified if cuts above 10 mm are rare in the production mix.

How long does it take to pay off a LAZIRON bevel laser cutting machine?

The calculation depends on the volume of beveled components per month, but most welded-structure workshops report payback in 20-32 months. The main saving comes from eliminating a dedicated beveling operator and from reducing delivery times by 30% for complex welded assemblies.

What delivery and installation are included?

Delivery is made DAP to your premises, while installation, commissioning and operator training are optional contractable services. The online inspection of the machine before shipping is free for any LAZIRON bevel laser cutting machine, with a live video feed on your reference plate.

ROI calculation for a LAZIRON bevel laser cutting machine

The decision to invest in a bevel laser cutting machine is not made on technical specifications alone. What matters is how the equipment translates into real monthly cash-flow figures for your workshop.

For workshops that currently subcontract laser cutting at 0.8-1.4 EUR per linear meter cut plus material cost, bringing it in-house with a LAZIRON bevel laser cutting machine reduces the effective cost per m² processed by 55-70%. At a monthly volume of 5-8 tons of sheet processed in-house instead of subcontracting, the investment is recovered in 18-30 months under current market conditions in Romania.

The additional margin comes from three directions: the saving versus subcontracting, offering cutting services to external local customers (1.2-1.8 EUR per meter at the level of the Romanian market in 2026) and reducing delivery times to end customers by 40-60%, which allows premium prices on urgent orders.
