Slat cleaners by Trumpf make the slag-removal process far easier

The Trumpf TruTool TSC 100 slat cleaner

Well known internationally for its consistent high quality, Trumpf’s TruTool brand of power tools is available in Canada via Dobco Equipment. This line includes more than just cutting and power tools; it also comprises cleaning equipment. One example is the TruTool TSC 100 design of slat cleaners, for use on laser-cutting machines.

To maximize process stability and finished-part quality, it is essential to clean support slats on these machines. This Trumpf tool offers best-in-class features to make this process effortless, reliable, and issue-free.

Adaptable to different slag thicknesses

TruTool TSC 100 support slat cleaners remove accumulated slag thoroughly, even on the sides of slats and in areas between them that are extremely hard to reach. The tool is very adaptable to different slag thicknesses on a variety of materials, up to 25 millimetres (mm) wide. Examples include mild steel, aluminum, and stainless steel, on which slag can be reliably removed. The TSC 100 cleans support slats in thicknesses going from two to 3.9 mm, with a minimum spacing of 33.5 mm between the slats. In addition, this tool has a high working speed of four to eight metres a minute.

This slat cleaner from Dobco is so easy to handle that it needs only one person to operate it. It can be used during ongoing production in certain applications. When used on a flatbed laser machine with a pallet changer, for example, the operator does not have to remove the slats, since the cleaning takes place during production. Another major benefit of the TruTool TSC 100 is that it can clean selectively. This means that the user can operate it on any specific area and then remove it.
