Innovative and Cost-Effective
Preco, Inc. integrates advanced laser technology with reliable equipment, offering innovative and cost-effective solutions for roll-to-roll laser cutting, etching, perforating, kiss-cutting/scoring.
The FlexStar Series of digital laser cutting systems are rapidly re-configured for changing job requirements and are the ideal match for short run jobs in all sizes and materials. The AcuBeamTM control system operates in a user friendly Windows® environment, allowing you to control the entire system. As a result, changeovers are as simple as opening a file without the need or costs of tooling!
This unique system allows you to process web widths from 100 mm (4 in) to 610 mm (24 in) at high production rates. Options are available for laminating, print registration, slitting and sheeting.
The FlexStar Series Laser System incorporates 200, 300, 400 or 1000 watt CO2 lasers. These lasers offer a reliable, precise beam that results in clean and sharp laser processed edges. In conjunction with our patented AcuPowerTM sub system which is interfaced through our AcuBeamTM control software, and adjusts laser power "on-the-fly" based on the beam movements. This technology simplifies the set-up process for cutting, provides greater control of laser power to avoid burn-through during kiss cutting/scoring and provides precision in complicated shape cutting.
