Summa has released the L1810 Gen 2.6 laser cutter, an advanced textile cutting solution.
The company says it has designed the new cutter for high volume, high precision applications, packing it innovative features that enhance every aspect of the cutting process, making it ideal for sportswear, dye-sublimated garments, and other textile applications.
Computaleta supplies Summa solutions in New Zealand.
Theo van Bruggen, Summa’s laser sales representative, says, “With the L1810 Gen 2.6, we’ve gone beyond simple upgrades to create a solution that meets the demands of textile production. This model combines enhanced precision, advanced automation, and robust durability to keep production running seamlessly. It’s designed to give our clients a competitive edge, ensuring reliable, top-tier performance day after day.”
Targeting high-performance textile cutting, particularly for sportswear, dye sublimation garments, and other textile products, the Summa L1810 Gen 2.6 laser cutter features brushless motors, increased durability and a longer lifespan. Summa says the new motors ensure consistent, reliable performance all day long.
A new motion control system improves cutting precision and efficiency while increasing operational uptime. Enhanced electronics allow for quicker start-up times and smoother operations.
The Summa L1810 Gen 2.6 laser cutter connects with external devices like the Caron feeder, making it easier automate workflow. Removing the touch panel control on the unit further streamlines operation. Summa says all functionalities are managed through its laser software, allowing for smoother operation and a more efficient workspace. The company says the GoProduce Laser Edition software controls the L1810 Gen 2.6 and the system’s user-friendly interface integrates all the necessary cutting parameters and operational settings into one seamless platform. Summa has improved its GoCare software to offer better performance monitoring and maintenance management.
The new laser cutter includes access to Summa’s advanced data-monitoring software, GoData, enabling real-time tracking of key performance metrics.
Summa lists the key features and enhancements:
Upgraded motors for increased durability, reducing the need for frequent maintenance even with 24/7 use.
A newly designed Y arm for smoother operation that lowers maintenance needs.
Updated electronics for faster start-up times and improved connectivity with external devices.
The new integrated software-based control panel works through GoProduce Laser Edition and increases user-friendliness and ergonomics.
Enhanced motion control for more precise cutting and future compatibility with vector and raster engraving.
A new working area of 1820mm x 920 mm for large and intricate textile jobs.
The sealed edges of each cut ensure the pieces are ready for the next phase of pro-duction, with no need for additional post-processing.
Stijn Henderickx, chief executive at Summa, says, “At Summa, we are commit-ted to pushing the boundaries of cutting technology. The L1810 Gen 2.6 is not just an upgrade; it’s a testament to our dedication to precision, quality, and reliability. We believe this innovation will set a new industry standard, empowering our clients to achieve unparalleled levels of productivity and efficiency.”
