In January of 2004 barthelmes purchased the Strippit LVD Axel Laser.

With this 2000 watt machine we are able to cut 5/8" steel, 1/4" stainless and 5/32" aluminum parts up to 60 inches width and 120 inches in length. Quick set-up times, high processing speeds, outstanding edge quality. This fully integrated CNC controlled load/unload system gives us a competitive advantage in the laser cutting market by letting us produce parts virtually operator free.
