What is the maximum workpiece height for Trotec laser machines?

What does 'maximum workpiece height' mean?

Kerf Cut: Bended wood with large honeycombs

 The tallest item you can process on a given laser machine will depend on the "maximum workpiece height". It is based on the focus point of the laser beam below the laser head and the distance between the working table. To determine the position of the focus point will depend on the lens used.

For each of our laser machines, we provide pre-calculated values for the maximum workpiece heights in the technical data. With this data, it makes it easier for you to compare the dimensions of your products with our specifications. Below, you will find a list of the maximum workpiece heights of our laser machines.

How to select the right maximum workpiece height when purchasing a laser

When selecting the best laser machine for your purposes, you should measure the materials that you wish to laser mark or laser engrave and compare the dimensions with our technical data. The maximum workpiece height as well as the width and length of the working area are crucial for selecting the right laser machine. You will be able to laser mark and laser engrave higher products the higher the maximum workpiece height of a laser machine is. With a height-adjustable working table of a flatbed laser machine, a high maximum workpiece height covers a broad range of application possibilities. We recommend laser machines with high maximum workpiece heights, especially for applications with varying product heights, such as model making, laser marking of components and packaging production.
