The Lockformer Vulcan® Fiber Laser Cutting System, paired with the Iowa Precision Coil Feed, sets a new standard in safety, precision, and productivity for HVAC duct and fittings manufacturing.

With its FDA accession number and Class 1 safety rating, this advanced system exemplifies top-tier operator protection through a patented shroud design that contains hazardous materials and promotes a clean, controlled cutting environment. The Class 1 fiber laser ensures safety during normal operation, making it ideal for high-performance manufacturing environments. 

Designed with open architecture, the system enables seamless integration into existing workflows, supports various software platforms, and provides future-ready customization and interoperability with other machinery. 

Its compatibility with the Iowa Precision Coil Feed system boosts automation, reduces labor, and maximizes material utilization through hands-free coil processing, E-Z Load features, and minimized scrap production—all while conserving valuable shop space.

The system’s use of compressed air eliminates harmful exhaust emissions, offering an environmentally responsible solution. It also delivers cutting speeds up to three times faster than traditional plasma systems, significantly enhancing throughput and turnaround times without compromising quality. 

Maintenance is simplified through easy access to internal components, reducing downtime and ensuring consistent performance.

Altogether, the Lockformer Vulcan® Fiber Laser Cutting System delivers an unmatched combination of safety, speed, precision, and efficiency. It empowers manufacturers to streamline production, reduce operational costs, and stay ahead in a competitive market while upholding the highest standards in safety and innovation.
