The coil-fed sheet metal laser machine is the fiber laser cutting system with continuous feeding from a sheet metal coil, designed for manufacturers cutting high volumes of thin sheet metal parts in series. The coil-fed sheet metal laser machine accepts coils weighing up to 15 tonnes and cuts parts at a maximum speed of 140 m/min on the X/Y axes, with an accuracy of ±0,03 mm, on thicknesses of 0,5–3 mm.
The coil-fed sheet metal laser machine has a work area configurable between 1515×3030 mm and 2020×6060 mm, laser power of 1–2 kW, a robust welded frame, a rotating-blade table, an automatic and manual focusing system and an acceleration of 1,5G. Compatible materials include cold-rolled sheet, galvanized sheet, stainless steel and aluminum of 0,5–3 mm.
The coil-fed sheet metal laser machine is the reference equipment for manufacturers of stamped auto parts, electrical cabinets, kitchen equipment, metal doors and gates and any other product manufactured in continuous series from thin sheet metal. Transport, installation and commissioning included. 60-month warranty. Technical specifications — coil-fed sheet metal laser machine

• Continuous feeding from a coil up to 15 tonnes — zero interruptions for sheet changing — the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine eliminates the main production loss of sheet-format (single-sheet) lasers: frequent material changing. A 15-tonne coil ensures hours of uninterrupted production on the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine, with no pauses to load a new sheet, no injury risk from handling large formats and no additional personnel needed to continuously feed a conventional laser.
• Maximum speed of 140 m/min on the X/Y axes — high series productivity — the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine reaches a maximum linking speed on the X/Y axes of 140 m/min, a value that ensures the productivity required for continuous series manufacturing of thin sheet metal. At this speed, the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine processes an incomparably higher volume of parts per hour than equipment with speeds of 60–80 m/min, a difference that translates directly into a lower cutting cost per part and greater capacity on the same work shift.
• Leveling speed up to 20 m/min — rapid transition from coil to cutting table — the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine unwinds and levels the sheet from the coil at speeds of up to 20 m/min, synchronized with the cutting rhythm. The leveling system of the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine compensates for the residual curvature of the coiled sheet and ensures the flatness required for the ±0,03 mm cutting accuracy, even at small thicknesses of 0,5 mm where deformations have a greater impact on cut quality.
• Configurable work area — 1515×3030 mm up to 2020×6060 mm — the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine is available in several work-area sizes, from the standard 1515×3030 mm format up to 2020×6060 mm for manufacturers cutting long parts in a single pass. This flexibility of the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine allows the equipment to be adapted to the maximum dimensions of the parts produced, eliminating the joints on long parts required with standard sheet formats.
• Repositioning accuracy ±0,03 mm — consistent quality in series production — the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine achieves the same ±0,03 mm repositioning accuracy as the sheet-format fiber laser, regardless of production speed and the volume of parts processed per shift. On series parts, this consistent accuracy of the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine guarantees full interchangeability — every part in the batch meets the same dimensions, eliminating scrap from dimensional variability.
• Robust welded frame — stability for continuous multi-shift production — the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine has a frame built from a robust weld that gives it the rigidity needed for continuous operation across multiple shifts, under the mechanical stresses generated by the weight of large coils and the vibrations of the leveling and cutting process. The 6,2–6,9 tonne self-weight of the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine contributes to stability and to damping vibrations in intensive production.
• Use in the automotive, electrotechnical, food and metal construction industries — the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine covers a wide range of thin sheet metal applications: stamped auto parts (brackets, supports, interior body components), electrical cabinets and panels, stainless steel kitchen utensils, metal doors and gates, decorative screens and panels, aluminum cladding and any other part manufactured in continuous series from cold-rolled, galvanized, stainless steel or aluminum sheet with thicknesses of 0,5–3 mm.
The coil-fed sheet metal laser machine vs. the sheet-format fiber laser
The coil-fed sheet metal laser machine and the economy fiber laser for workshops are two configurations of the same fiber laser technology, addressing different production needs.
The coil-fed sheet metal laser machine is the choice for high volumes of thin sheet metal parts (0,5–3 mm) in continuous series. The sheet-format fiber laser is the choice for varied ranges of materials and thicknesses (up to 22 mm at 6 kW) and small- and medium-series orders. UZINEX recommends the correct configuration at quotation. Frequently asked questions about the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine
What sheet thicknesses can the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine process?
The coil-fed sheet metal laser machine processes sheet with thicknesses between 0,5 and 3 mm — the range covered by standard coils of cold-rolled, galvanized, stainless steel and aluminum sheet. For thicknesses greater than 3 mm, we recommend the economy fiber laser for workshops with a 3–6 kW source and sheet-format feeding. What is the maximum size of coil that can be used on the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine?
The coil-fed sheet metal laser machine accepts coils weighing up to 15 tonnes. The width of the compatible coil is established at quotation according to the selected work area — 1515 mm maximum width for the 1515×3030 mm configuration, or 2020 mm for the 2020×6060 mm configuration. Is the coil-fed sheet metal laser machine eligible for European funding?
Yes. UZINEX is a member of the Enterprise Europe Network and delivers equipment for projects with European funds — PNRR, the Regional Programme, the Just Transition Programme.
