Discover Your Next Laser Solution
Our application engineers, developers, and scientists are available across dozens of global state-of-the-art IPG application centers to help with everything from process development and optimization to full scale production.
Getting started is easy — send us a sample for evaluation or just tell us about your project and we'll take it from there.
Granite Base
The Versa is built with a granite base for vibration dampening and structure stiffness that enable the precision required for stent and small tube cutting.
Easy-to-Use Software
IPG software is preloaded and tested at IPG prior to shipment and provides the user with a comprehensive, easy-to-use programming and operator interface.
Fluid System Option
An integrated fluid system provides continuous water flow through tubing to minimize heat and provide additional protection of the part rear wall from laser radiation.
- Fluid containment box
- Finished part collection drawer
- Fluid recycling and flow control
