AP3015 20SHT Fiber Laser Plate & Tube Cutting System
The AP3015 20SHT combines a dedicated sheet-cutting platform with tube-cutting capability to provide two major cutting functions within one machine.
Instead of dedicating floor space and capital to separate sheet and tube laser systems, the 20SHT provides manufacturers with a multi-purpose production platform capable of handling a broader range of work.
The system is designed for manufacturers who need versatility without compromising the precision and productivity expected from a modern fiber laser.
Ideal for: General fabrication, job shops, agricultural manufacturing, custom manufacturing, and production environments processing both sheet and tube.
PRODUCT COMPLIANCE
Meets applicable U.S. federal laser product requirements for safety, certification, and labeling.
WARRANTY AND SUPPORT
Apache machines are backed by two-year warranties, with three-year coverage on select models.
U.S. ASSEMBLY ON SELECT MODELS
Select Apache models are assembled in the USA and backed by responsive support from our team.
RESPONSIVE TECHNICAL SUPPORT
Questions should not wait. Apache is committed to same-day response when customers need technical support.
ONE PLATFORM. MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS.
The AP3015 20SHT allows manufacturers to move between flat sheet and tube applications while maintaining a common CNC-controlled production environment.
SHEET CUTTING
Process flat sheet material with precision fiber laser technology for:
-
Plates and brackets
-
Panels
-
Structural components
-
Machinery parts
-
Custom fabrication
-
Production components
TUBE & PROFILE CUTTING
Expand production capabilities by processing:
-
Round tube
-
Square tube
-
Rectangular tube
-
Structural profiles
-
Other compatible tube and shape materials
This combination can help reduce equipment duplication while providing greater flexibility for changing production requirements
3D PART NESTING & MATERIAL OPTIMIZATION
Make Better Use of Your Material
The AP3015 20SHT includes 3D part nesting for tube and profile applications, allowing programmed components to be arranged on the selected material before cutting.
For sheet applications, the system's nesting capabilities help efficiently arrange parts across the available sheet area.
Together, these capabilities help operators:
-
Improve material utilization
-
Reduce scrap
-
Plan multiple parts from a single piece of material
-
Simplify production planning
-
Reduce setup time
-
Improve overall cutting efficiency
Better nesting means better use of the material you already paid for.
ENGINEERED FOR THE WAY YOU WORK
The AP3015 20SHT incorporates many of the technologies found throughout our fiber laser product line, including:
-
Precision servo motion system
-
EtherCAT high-speed motion control
-
Automatic capacitive height sensing
-
Intelligent cutting-head technology
-
3D tube and profile nesting
-
Sheet nesting
-
Automatic gas pressure regulation
-
Collision protection
-
Climate-controlled electrical systems
-
Remote diagnostics and software support
-
Production-oriented CNC controls
-
Serviceable machine design
The result is a flexible production platform designed to handle changing workloads without requiring the customer to purchase a separate machine for every application.
BUILT FOR FLEXIBILITY
One Machine Can Change With Your Business
Production requirements don't always stay the same.
A customer may need to cut sheet today, tube tomorrow, and a combination of both later in the week. The AP3015 20SHT is designed around that reality.
Whether you're producing a small batch of brackets from sheet, cutting structural tube for a fabrication project, or running mixed production, the 20SHT gives your shop the flexibility to adapt.
More Applications. More Capability. One Production Platform.
