Abstract

A laser processing system for cutting sheet work material (16) includes a generator for a laser beam for cutting the work material (16), a work surface (14) for supporting the work material (16), a cutting head (18) located above the work surface (14) for projecting the laser beam toward the work surface, a beam delivery system (13) for coupling the laser beam to the cutting head (18) and a drive system for moving the cutting head along a selected path over the work surface. The beam delivery system includes a flexible waveguide covered with steel monocoil protective flexible sheath. The work surface (14) is covered by a heat-absorbing coating. The laser processing system is enclosed in a lightweight case, such as a case comprising molded plastic (10).
