Platform Overview

The VLS3.60DT is a compact and economical entry-level platform that offers a material processing envelope of 24" x 12" x 4" or 1,152 in³. The VLS3.60DT can be equipped with one of five 10.6µm CO2 laser sources ranging in power from 10 to 60 watts or one 9.3µm CO2 30 watt or 50-watt laser source.

Platform Features

High Reliability Digital Motors

Universal’s laser systems use high quality digital motors which don’t require expensive and complicated optical encoders to function, increasing reliability.

Intelligent Laser Energy Management Engine

This feature maintains consistent energy density at any processing speed producing uniform marks and constant depth when cutting, marking and engraving.

Laminated Safety Glass

Glass viewing windows creating a safe enclosure for laser processing.

Manual Air Assist (with Optics Protection)

Air Assist with Optics Protection creates positive air pressure around all optics and directs compressed air onto the surface of the material being processed. This compressed air keeps debris and particulate and fumes away from the optics, suppresses combustion of fumes, reduces accumulation of particulate on material surface, and increases cut quality on most materials.

Multiple Language Support

Supported languages include English, German, Japanese, Spanish, French, Italian, and more.

Over-Temp Alarm (for fire safety)

An over temperature alarm installed in every Universal laser system monitors the temperature of the work area. If an unusually high temperature is detected the system will turn off the laser and trigger an audible alarm.

Permanently Sealed Bearings

Our sealed, self-lubricating motion system bearings keep dust and debris out, resulting in a longer bearing life.

Stretch-Free Kevlar® Belts

Durable belts provide a long life of reliable processing.

Laser Features

Air-Cooled Laser Source

Because our laser sources are air-cooled, no complicated liquid cooling systems are required.

High Reliability, Excellent Power Stability

Our laser sources provide consistent power for predictably excellent processing results.

Laser Fan Control (to reduce noise)

Universal’s lasers are all air cooled by computer-controlled fans. Fan speed is reduced or increased as a function of laser temperature, reducing noise levels when the lasers are being used on lower power settings.

Laser Pointer

A red laser pointer is installed for easy material alignment.

Patented Cross-Platform Compatibility

Laser sources can be freely interchanged between laser platforms.

Patented Free-Space Gas Slab Laser Design

Our patented laser sources use free-space gas slab resonators to produce an excellent quality beam with even power distribution and good near and far field characteristics.

Patented Pre-Aligned Laser Sources

Laser sources are pre-aligned at the factory and do not need to be internally realigned.

Smart Laser Source Technology

Because we manufacture our own lasers, Universal’s lasers can communicate their model number to the laser system CPU, allowing the laser system to automatically choose the right settings for a particular material based on available laser power.

Warranty Available Up To 5 Years

Our standard warranty can be extended for up to half a decade of coverage.

Wide Selection of Power Levels

Lasers are available at power levels from 10 to 150 watts.

More Information

All Universal laser platforms use interchangeable components, giving you the ability to tailor your system to fit your needs.
