4KW PHOENIX FIBRE LASER WITH A 10 STATION COMPACT TOWER AUTOMATION SYSTEM

The investment includes a 4kW LVD Phoenix fibre laser with a 10 station Compact Tower automation system for blank sheets and finished parts. Also included in the package are 4m 135 tonne LVD Easy-Form press brake and LVD’s CADMAN® software suite.

These latest machines join an existing LVD Easy-Form press brake – which has been upgraded to be fully compatible with the latest software – and a small LVD Dyna-Press electric press brake.

The new investment coincided with a change of ownership of the LNS group – which is now part of Swedish investment group Storskogen – and a new market focus. This has changed the strategy from making one-off machines for end users to targeting machine tool OEMs and dealers where it could achieve economies of scale, and this required it to ramp up its manufacturing capacity.
