The machine has arrived.
Now it has to run.
You have bought a new laser machine directly from a manufacturer in China, and commissioning on site is not part of the deal. We set the machine up, align it, connect cooling, gases and extraction, set the parameters for your materials and train your operators on the machine. Independent, for all major brands, from Germany.
Who commissions a laser machine bought directly from China?
If commissioning on site is not part of your contract, nobody does it for you. That is where we come in. We set up and align the machine, connect the media, check the beam path, set the parameters, make test cuts and train your operators. Commissioning is planned work over one or more days, so a visit from Germany usually makes sense. How travel is charged and an example calculation are on service abroad. Phone: +49 172 510 0715
Call us before the machine arrives
Talk to us early
The best time to call is before delivery. Then the site is ready when the machine arrives, and we can plan the date with you.
Send what you have
Photos of the machine or the offer, a photo of the type plate, the digital documentation from the seller, and what the machine will be used for. If there is no digital documentation, photos of the title page and table of contents of the manuals.
Prepare the site
Floor, space for maintenance doors and extraction, fresh air for the chiller, power supply. We tell you what to check, based on your documents.
What you provide on the day
A contact person on site, access and a safety briefing, lifting equipment where needed, process gases and consumables.
Free access to the work area
View into the open cabin of a laser cutting machine with gantry, Z axis and slat table. For service and commissioning the work area must be freely accessible.
What happens during commissioning
Set-up and alignment
Remove the transport locks, level the machine, align gantry and table. A machine that does not stand level produces cutting errors that you later look for in the parameters.
Media
Fill the chiller, remove the air, check the flow direction. Connect compressed air and cutting gases, set the pressures, connect the extraction.
Beam path and optics
On CO2 machines we align the beam path and set the focus. On fibre lasers we check the fibre cable, protective window and cutting head. All optics are checked before the first shot.
Parameters and test cut
Reference the axes, set the basic parameters and create cutting data for the materials you really cut. Then test cuts, until the result is right.
Connect the cutting gases correctly
Connections for oxygen, nitrogen and compressed air on the machine. Purity and pressure of the cutting gases have a direct effect on the cutting quality.
Your team learns on its own machine
Operation
Starting, loading jobs, changing material, the most important parameters. Practical, at the machine, not as a lecture.
Wear parts
Replacing nozzle, protective window and ceramic ring. These are the parts your operators will change most often.
Care for longer machine life
Cleaning the optics, checking the chiller, keeping the work area clean. Small daily checks prevent many faults.
Certificate of attendance
On request, each participant gets a certificate of attendance. Small questions by phone or email after the visit are free of charge for our existing customers.
We also commission these machines
Used machine at a new site
After transport, alignment, beam path and cooling are often no longer right. We set the machine up again and tell you honestly what condition it is in.
Relocation
If the machine moves to another site, also across a border, we dismantle, label and mark everything, a transport partner moves it, and we reassemble and commission it.
Own set-up that does not run well
You set the machine up yourself, but it does not run properly. We start where you are, tell you what is missing and finish the job.
All major brands
Bodor, HSG, Han's Laser, Penta, Golden Laser, Senfeng, Gweike, HGTECH, Hymson, DNE and others. We are independent and not an official partner of any manufacturer.
FAQ
Yes. We set the machine up, connect it, set the beam path and parameters and train your operators. Ideally you contact us before delivery and send photos, the type plate and the documents you have from the seller.
That depends on the machine and on what is already prepared on site. After we have seen your photos and documents, we tell you how many days we expect. This is part of the cost estimate you get before we book.
We charge by time: EUR 100 per hour on site and EUR 70 per hour travel time, net per technician. Flights, rental car and hotel are charged at cost, without mark-up. Before we book, you get a cost estimate including travel. The final invoice usually differs from it by only EUR 100 to 200.
No. We do not offer CE marking or other certification services. We make the machine run correctly and tell you openly what we notice about safety, so that you can clarify it with the responsible bodies.
Yes, a practical training on your machine is part of commissioning: operation, replacing wear parts such as nozzle, protective window and ceramic ring, and care for a longer machine life. Training is on site only, not via remote access.
We do not sell spare parts. If something is missing or damaged, we tell you exactly which part you need. You order it from the seller or have it delivered to your site.
