Laser projection for woodworking

The drawings with positions, outlines and guide lines are created by the software or the control console. Then they are  sent to the ProDirector 7 via the CNC router control. The laser projector converts this data into laser lines and projects them 1:1 onto the work table or blank. This saves the creation of templates or inspection runs with the tool in place. 

The extremely low error margin reduces the proportion of rejects. The exact positioning of the tools prevents damage to the suction cups and eliminates the need to realign the workpiece.

In the furniture industry, everything revolves around fast and precise work on the workpieces. Here, laser projection is used in the production of components, but is also used to position fittings. The laser projectors display the contours of the fittings or strips, which can then be fitted and assembled by colleagues with millimeter precision. They also use the projection of the drill hole markings for this purpose.

The next step is quality control. The laser projector is simply switched on by remote control for the corresponding laser projection of the step sequence.

This easy-to-use measuring system is used for 3D measurements, e.g. in staircase construction or for fitted kitchens. You select the required measuring points for the drawing using the clearly visible laser point. Using the stored data, the ProCollector L automatically scans horizontal or vertical courses on the wall and on curves. 

The progress is displayed on the graphical user interface. The finished drawing is transferred to the CAD program as a DXF file. The drawing can be projected onto the components as a guidance system to aid set-up and as a work template.

With SL Laser’s robust positioning lasers, materials in sawmills can be precisely aligned and optimally cut. The clearly visible laser line indicates the exact cutting path and helps operators align logs, boards, or panels with ease. This prevents miscuts and saves both material and costs.

Thanks to their user-friendly operation, short setup times, and reliable electronics, the line and cross lasers are perfectly suited for demanding industrial use. Whether in woodworking, CNC systems, or other production processes – these durable systems ensure maximum precision and efficiency in daily operation.
