The TruLaser 5030 fiber from TRUMPF offers you the most
economical solution for highly efficient thin sheet metal pro-
cessing. With its dynamic drive system, it takes full advantage
of the high feed rates of the energy-efficient, fiber-guided
TruDisk laser. It reduces nonproductive time to a minimum, and
its compact footprint and versatile installation options give
you all of the flexibility you need.
Another major advantage is the wide variety of materials the
new TruLaser 5030 can handle. It cuts thin stainless steel and
aluminum as well as nonferrous metals such as copper and
brass producing reliable and high-quality results. It also cuts
a wide range of sheet thickness in mild steel.

Make the
right choice.
The TruLaser 5030 fiber is the perfect choice for:
Extractor hood made of thin stainless steel. Computer case made of thin mild steel. Faade elements made of copper.
n processing thin sheet metal economically;
n cutting mild steel in all sheet thicknesses as well as thin stainless steel;
n expanding your portfolio to include nonferrous metals such as copper and brass.
This machine is the ideal solution for both OEM and job shop production. Suppliers who already have a highly
versatile CO
2
laser system in place will find that the new TruLaser 5030 is the perfect addition to their existing
machinery to process thin sheet metal cost-effectively.

The most economical system is always the one that offers the
lowest costs per part. These costs depend on your level of
productivity, the initial capital investment, and operating costs
(see diagram below).
Solid-state lasers provide higher effi ciency than CO
2
lasers,
and they reduce consumption of laser and assist gases low-
ering your operating costs.
Extremely cost-effective.
The cost of electricity and gas has little impact, however,
on the costs per part (see diagram below left). Instead, fiber-
guided solid-state lasers reduce costs per part in the follow-
ing ways:
n In thin sheet metal they produce parts faster and
therefore, more productively.
n In the LaserNetwork, a single laser is used for multiple
machines, which reduces capital investment costs.
In case of the new TruLaser 5030 the solid-state laser generates
high productivity in thin sheets.

More productive thanks to ideal machine concept.
Thin sheets absorb the light from a solid-state laser particularly well when they are cut with nitrogen (fusion cutting). That benefits
you in two ways first, it provides the ability to achieve very high cutting speeds even at low laser output power, and second,
it produces superior quality cut edges. The process is quick, cost-effective and oxide-free, even when processing thin mild steel.
Converting these benefits into lower costs per part can only be achieved with a highly dynamic machine and the ability to reduce
nonproductive time to an absolute minimum. With features such as single cutting head strategy and automatic nozzle changer, the
TruLaser 5030 fiber is the perfect choice. An automatic pallet changer is also standard with the machine.

High productivity for thin sheet metal.
Solid-state lasers can as much as triple feed rates. Yet taking advantage of this benefit and achieving rapid part processing
requires a highly dynamic system. Thanks to its direct drives, this TruLaser 5030 makes optimum use of the fiber-guided TruDisk
lasers high feed rates which translates to the shortest part processing times.
Optimum energy efficiency.
The efficiency of the fiber-guided TruDisk 3001 is twice that of a CO
2
beam source which means less power consumption.
This slashes the machines total connected load paring down costs even further. The optional universal cooling interface ensures
maximum energy efficiency by drawing off the heat so that it can be put to further use.
Minimal nonproductive time.
The optimization strategies known from CO
2
machines combine with the automatic
nozzle changer to keep nonproductive time to a minimum. In addition, the fiber beam
transport system is entirely maintenance-free. The optimized maintenance concept
with maintenance assistant reduces nonproductive time even further and the collision
protection feature of the universal cutting head helps prevent unscheduled downtime.
Access to the complete cutting data by TRUMPF ensures a smooth start.
Minimal space requirements.
The compact design of the TruLaser 5030 fiber cuts space requirements by up to 20 %. The
switch cabinets and compact dust extractor are integrated within the machine. The fiber
beam transport system that is up to 40 m long, provides complete flexibility in setting up
your TruDisk laser giving you the choice of placing it right next to the machine or in a
different area altogether. Therefore, it fits even in the smallest hall.

Wide variety of materials.
The TruLaser 5030 fiber provides a particularly cost-effective means of cutting thin stain-
less steel and mild steel using fusion cutting. In this field of application, it boasts even
higher productivity than a 5 kW CO
2
machine. In gas-assisted flame cutting, the results
are comparable to those of a CO
2
laser cutting machine of the same power. It can also
handle aluminum as well as highly reflective materials such as copper and brass. The abil-
ity to cut PVC-coated stainless steel adds to its list of capabilities.
Intuitive operation and ergonomic design.
All of the machines maintenance doors are easily accessible. The control panel and touch-
screen can be adjusted to your precise requirements to ensure ergonomic, user-friendly
operation. The large observation windows ensure that you have a clear view of the ma-
chines interior. A camera with flexible image transmission is available as an option.
Occupational safety.
The new TruLaser 5030 guarantees safety. The laser and the machine are fully enclosed
on all sides and by a top cover. The observation windows are specifically approved for
solid-state lasers. In addition, the top cover enables a quieter and cleaner workplace.

When it comes to visible edges, the TruLaser 5030 fiber gives an impressive performance with its superb edge quality in thin
sheet metal. Despite this focus on achieving top-notch quality, its feed rates are just as high or higher than the high-speed
cutting processes of CO
2
machines.
You achieve superior quality at minimal costs per part.

Additional savings in subsequent processing steps
thanks to oxide-free edges.
The TruLaser 5030 fiber with TruDisk laser also achieves superior quality standards when fusion cutting mild steel. Despite using
nitrogen as a cutting gas, oxide-free cutting of mild steel parts is still more economical compared to flame cutting because it
achieves higher productivity. It also reduces the need for refinishing by producing high-quality, oxide-free edges. This creates
benefits such as the ability to paint the part immediately after it is cut.
Cut mild steel with oxide-free edges, at minimal costs and additionally save on refinishing.
