AORE GR-H All-in-One Laser for Beam, Pipe and Sheet
All-in-one beam, tube and plate laser processing centre
The GR-H is AORE's all-in-one structural processing centre: one machine handling beam, tube and plate on a heavy-duty gantry ground rail. It cuts, bevels, drills, notches, marks and scribes, so a section goes from raw to ready without being craned to three different machines.
Multi-station zoned processing means one station cuts while another is being loaded, which matters on long sections where craning in the next member takes longer than the cut. Built for steel fabrication, bridge work, rail and shipbuilding.
Key features
Beam, tube and plate on one machine
Cutting, bevelling, drilling, notching, marking and scribing on H-beam, I-beam, channel, angle, plate and tube. This removes the capital cost of separate machines and the material handling between them, which on long sections is usually the larger figure.
Multi-station zoned processing
The gantry rail is divided into zones, so cutting continues on one station while the next section is craned into position. On long members loading time commonly exceeds cutting time, so this determines throughput rather than cutting speed.
Vision scanning and automatic compensation
Real-time scanning measures the section in position and compensates for misalignment before cutting. Rolled sections are rarely straight or exactly to nominal, and on a 12 metre beam a small twist at one end becomes a significant error at the other.
Bed length specified to the work
Bed length is specified at 12.3 m, 15 m or 18 m, with longer beds built to order for bridge, rail and long-span work. Station layout, clamping and the processing mix are specified the same way at any length.
Tekla model import and nesting
The Tekla model imports directly, so members are nested and cut from the drawing rather than reprogrammed at the machine. This removes the transcription step between detailing and production, and nesting is calculated across the full profile.
AORE H-ALS Series Automated Profile Loading and Unloading System
The H-ALS feeds sections from 300 x 150 to 800 x 500 mm in 12 m lengths to the GR-H and clears finished parts, on two alternating stations with 3D vision positioning. Specified with the GR-H where the line runs from a cut list rather than an operator.
