HSE (High Speed Engraving) Laser Systems
The HSE Laser System is the flagship model in Kern's product lineup. A wrap around gantry traverses over the cutting bed allowing for finished parts to be easily removed at all sides of the machine. The moving gantry features high speed servo motors and a flying optics beam delivery providing consistent beam power and quality over the entire table top.
The HSE equipment is versatile to the degree that it will quickly process acrylic, metal, wood, stone, foam and more. The HSE truly is the laser system of choice for sign makers, metal fabricators and educational institutes around the world.
Every HSE laser system is built around a solid steel frame that has been blanchard ground flat with all welds stress relieved in a high temperature oven. A down draft vacuum table is built into the stand to hold down your material while being cut or engraved. Smoke fumes and small debris are removed by a vacuum system that pulls from both below and above the material being processed.
All lasers sold by Kern are designed and manufactured with pride in the USA. Lasers from 30 to 400 watts are available to handle a wide range of applications. If required a closed loop chilling unit is provided to keep the laser unit cooled and running smoothly.
