These specialists process different materials depending on customer requirements - stainless steel, structural steel and aluminum - with material thicknesses ranging from 0.5 mm to 40 mm. The company has grown consistently every year since its founding. Particularly the last six years have been very successful - the number of workers tripled, and the customer base grew by a factor of nearly six.

A significant part of this success is due to modern 2D laser cutting systems, of which the company now has nine in production - nearly all by TRUMPF. "TRUMPF is always at the technical forefront, and meets our requirements. And we're seeing that again with the TruTool TSC 2 slat cleaner. No other company offers anything like it," says Abram. The TruTool TSC 2 cleans the support slats of laser cutting systems quickly and easily.This work is necessary because during processing on flatbed laser machines, slag regularly hardens on the support slats for pallets. Depending on what material is being processed and in what thickness, more or less slag hardens on the slats.

"On average, the strips are clogged up about every two weeks to the point that we need to clean them," explains Alexander Jahn, machine operator at PS Laser. "We used to have to use a hammer and chisel sometimes. About every four to six weeks, we had to replace the slats. That was a very difficult and time-consuming job.With the TruTool TSC 2 slat cleaner, it's not a problem any more."

With the slat cleaner, cleaning can be done without stopping production. The slats don't need to be removed, and the process takes about 30 minutes, depending on pallet size Replacement of the strips is now only necessary every two to three months on average. They can be cleaned about five or six times.Thanks to round-the-clock operations at PS Laser, the TruTool TSC 2 is used several times a week.
