Angled cuts from 1° to 45°
The PLUS BEVEL is designed for specific applications where an angled cut at varying degrees ranging from 1° to 45° is required. The primary benefit is to increase the consistency of the bevel angle cut, creating a stronger welding point, especially when using robotic welding machines.

Hardware Solutions
SMART Mix (laser sources 20kW and up)
The SMART Mix option includes a component that enhances the cutting process through hardware technology controlled in real-time by our Smart Manager software. With just a few clicks, the right amount of oxygen and nitrogen can be supplied instantly for cutting varying metal types and thicknesses, saving gas consumption and delivering a cool part for fast removal from the table.
SMART Changer
This upgrade allows the laser machine to automatically replace the cutting head nozzle without operator intervention. Up to 10 positions are available, including both cleaning and calibration functions. This solution, paired with automation, allows for full "lights-out" operation on laser systems with shuttle tables.
SMART Camera
Multiple cameras may be installed inside the laser cabin for multi-angle remote viewing. One camera is included with the system.
SMART Flow Automated Loading and Unloading
Cutlite Penta can fully automate your metal cutting operation by pairing your laser cutting system with our automation and storage systems, reducing loading and unloading times. We can tailor a fully automated loading and unloading system for your location positioned above the laser pallet changer at either 90° or in-line with the pallet changer, with or without a storage tower.
SMART Raster
SMART Raster is an optional software tool that allows the machines to raster identification numbers or images on stainless steel.
Two Level Pallet Exchange
Two-level worktable changeover allows the table to be changed in approximately 15 seconds, almost completely masking loading and unloading times – the fiber plus system is the fastest on the market today.

EVO 3 Head
The PLUS Bevel system uses the EVO 3 cutting head, which has been proven reliable with thousands of installations worldwide when integrated with high-power fiber laser systems. Designed and built in Italy, this autofocusing cutting head offers exceptional cutting speeds on both thinner and thicker materials. The cutting head is completely sealed, and the focusing lenses can be used with up to 30KW of laser power and a pressure of 25 bar. There are three focal configurations to choose from: 150, 200, and 250mm.
SMART Bevel Pro
Cutlite Penta’s SMART Bevel Pro component to quickly perform bevel cuts including V, A, X, Y upward, Y downward, and K, while still providing the highest quality 2D straight cutting capabilities. The innovative SMART Bevel Pro head is very consistent, even with very long cutting lines. Finished cut parts can be directly transferred to robotic welding stations, eliminating additional milling and deburring steps in the production process. It can also rotate 45° in both cutting directions.
Our Laser Sources
We offer IPG laser sources for our PLUS Bevel system. IPG’s laser source ensures remarkable metal-cutting versatility and range from 6kW to 50kW and is housed in an air-conditioned and sealed NEMA 12 cabinet. These highly efficient laser sources offer excellent beam quality and low energy consumption, ensuring reliable operation even in demanding production environments. IPG has obtained CSA certification for use in the Canadian market.
