Prima Power proudly announces the launch of Giga Laser Next, a revolutionary leap in 3D laser cutting designed for the high-output demands of the automotive industry.
With four synchronised laser heads cutting the same part and a dual-station layout that enables parallel loading and unloading, Giga Laser Next multiplies productivity while shrinking occupied space, unlocking new benchmarks in space-time efficiency. Designed for giga-factories and the high-output production of high-strength steel (HSS) automotive components, Giga Laser Next is a response to the most urgent demands in the industry.
Giga Laser Next stands out for three powerful reasons that directly address the demands of high-volume automotive production (typically >200,000 parts/year) while maintaining the flexibility to handle multiple part codes:
+280% higher productivity per m2
-75% average cutting stations required and production changeover time
One piece flow, fully unmanned automation, complete integration into the production line
These benefits are made possible by a series of groundbreaking technical innovations. At the heart of Giga Laser Next is a unique configuration of four synchronised laser heads working simultaneously on the same part, enabled by advanced anti-collision system and a robust cartesian structure with high-performance retractable arms. The machine operates with typical idle time of around 2 seconds, thanks to parallel loading/unloading on one station, while the process is performed on the other. Its compact 10×10 m footprint is achieved by integrating ancillaries like laser sources and chillers on a mezzanine level, maximising floor space efficiency.
Designed for full automation, Giga Laser Next supports embedded solutions for loading, unloading, quality checks, and marking, with the flexibility to connect directly to stamping or assembly lines. It also features an easy fixture change system, digital twin validation, and a machine architecture optimised for long-term reliability and minimal maintenance, making it ideal for high-volume production of automotive stamped and cast parts.
