SOFTWARE

CypCut sheet cutting software is an in-depth program for fiber laser cutting machines. It simplifies complex CNC machine operation and integrates CAD, Nest and CAM modules in one. From drawing and nesting to workpiece cutting, everything can be done in CypCut in just a few quick clicks.

• Microsoft Windows–based controller interface.
• Automatic optimisation of imported drawings.
• Concise parameters setting: Micro Joint, lead, cooling point, compensate, Bridge, Measure, Fillet, Release.
• Powerful editing tools for large-scale or bulk modifications.
• Feasible control bar for processing: It supports floating coordinate system and workpiece coordinate system. It not only meets the demand of flexible production but also facilitates mass production.
• Abundant local statistics.
• Accurate tracking-edge assistance supports Photoelectric edge searching and Capacitor tracking edge.
• Real-time frequency and power curve - laser radiation is automatically adjusted according to the speed of movement of the cutting head.
• Rectification of deviation or offset from the dual-drive gantry.
• Provides common drawing functions (similar to AutoCAD).
• Supports multiple files formats such as AI, DXF, PLT, Gerber and LXD, accepts international standard G codes generated by Master Cam, Type3 and other software and automatically optimises when external files such as DXF are opened/imported, saving time and efficiency.

FAQs

What is the difference between Cobalt and Onyx fiber lasers?

The main difference is production capability and automation. Cobalt is a production-grade fiber laser cutting machine with dual-table automation for higher throughput, while Onyx is a compact, manual system better suited to smaller workshops and flexible, lower-volume work.

Is the Cobalt suitable for industrial use?

Yes, Cobalt is designed for production environments and can support demanding workloads. It offers the performance, automation and reliability needed for consistent output, making it suitable for growing operations and light- to mid-level industrial applications.

What cutting speeds can the Cobalt achieve?

Cobalt delivers high cutting speeds depending on material type, thickness and power level. Higher kW options enable faster processing and improved throughput, helping reduce job turnaround times and increase overall productivity in production environments. If you have specific materials or requirements, contact us to know more.

Can the Cobalt handle thick metal sheets?

Yes, Cobalt can handle thick metal sheets when configured with higher power options. Increased kW capacity allows for deeper cutting and faster processing, making it suitable for a wide range of materials and thicknesses across fabrication and manufacturing  applications.

Does the Cobalt support automation or loading systems?

Yes, Cobalt supports automated workflows through its dual-table exchange system. This reduces idle time between cuts and improves efficiency, allowing operators to load and unload material while the machine continues processing, which helps maximise throughput.

How energy efficient is the Cobalt fiber laser?

Cobalt is designed to operate efficiently, using modern fiber laser machine technology to reduce energy consumption compared to traditional cutting methods. This helps lower operating costs while maintaining strong cutting performance across a range of materials and applications. 

What safety features are included in the Cobalt machine?

Cobalt includes standard safety features expected in a modern fiber optic laser cutting machine, such as protective enclosures, controlled access areas and system safeguards. These help ensure safe operation while maintaining productivity in workshop and production environments.

How long does installation and setup take?

Installation and setup typically take a short period, depending on site readiness and configuration. MACRO Cobalt systems are installed and commissioned by technicians, ensuring the machine is properly set up and ready for operation from the outset.
