Laser Retrofit & Laser Control Retrofit Services

A successful laser retrofit starts with the condition of the existing machine—not with a parts list. We review the mechanical platform, drive architecture, electrical drawings, safety chain, gas circuit and production target before defining the upgrade.

Retrofit Engineering

Compatibility comes before configuration

Every project requires a machine-specific assessment. Final hardware, software and achievable performance depend on the existing mechanical accuracy, drive system, I/O, electrical cabinet, safety circuit and selected laser power.

A thorough engineering review confirms the retrofit solution is compatible, integrated correctly and sized around the real machine condition and production target.

Mechanical & electrical condition
Machine base, cabinet condition and safety readiness
Control, drives & fieldbus
Existing controller, drives, I/O and motion network
Target materials & laser power
Material, thickness, process target and proposed power

Assessment outcome

The review turns machine evidence into a clear engineering decision.

  • Feasibility confirmedIdentify the constraints that affect a retrofit path.
  • Scope definedSet the required controls, interfaces and safety work.
  • Commissioning plannedPrepare installation, parameter setup and handover.

Selecting the right Bochu control platform

CypCut is a leading Chinese sheet-metal laser cutting software platform. Depending on power, motion architecture and process requirements, a project may use CypCut, CypCutPro or an EtherCAT-based FSCUT8000/HypCut solution.

Match the control platform to the installed laser power, motion architecture, I/O scope and the process control your production requires.

Installed power
Laser source and planned duty cycle
Motion & fieldbus
Existing drives, pulse control or EtherCAT readiness
Required process control
Everyday production, advanced functions or high-power coordination
Engineering fit check

Share your machine model, installed controller and production target. We review the practical control path before any retrofit scope is confirmed.
