Trumpf L3030 4kw
Trumpf L3030 4kw
(OP)
Hello
We recently purchased/installed a trumpf L3030 4kw laser and are now running parts(Mild Steel up to 3/4" and compared to our other laser, this think sucks the nitrogen. We are going through nitrogen banks every 24-36 hours and we are only using it as a purge gas(not for the resonator) and are cutting with O2. We seem to have satisfactory results with shop air for 3/8 and smaller but we will primarily be using this machine for 1/2 and up. My question is; is this normal? If so, I guess I will be investing in a bulk nitrogen tank and compressor. We have a top shelf maintenance department and they cant seem to find any leaks.
Any help would be appreciated!

An oil free dedicated compressor with it's intake strategically positioned in a cool dry area works good. An oily old compressor feeding a number of machines with oilers and whatnot that has it's intake where it can pick up fumes from the paint booth is not going to cut it.
