Complex surfaces u00b7 coordinated motion u00b7 parallel handling
Move beyond flat sheet cutting and process formed components in three dimensions.
The Bodor Space Series is intended for components whose cut path changes across multiple faces, depths and angles. A five-axis cutting head, dual-station workholding concept and programming tools bring cutting, loading and unloading into one planned production cell.
Dual-station productivity
Prepare or unload one fixture while the other station is cutting, helping reduce non-productive changeover time.
Repeatable programmed motion
Teach-in and offline programming options help turn approved toolpaths into repeatable production routines.
Prompt rotary tables
Cut on one station while the next component is prepared for production.
Bodor describes a dual-station rotary table with a 2.5-second changeover and ±15-arcsecond positioning reference. Cutting and loading or unloading can take place in parallel, reducing the idle time between parts and supporting a more continuous production rhythm.
Fixture the formed component
Use application-specific workholding to locate the part and provide safe access to the programmed cutting path.
Run the five-axis toolpath
Coordinated head and table movement follows the programmed geometry across the required faces and contours.
Prepare the second station
The next part can be loaded or the completed part removed while processing continues on the opposite station.
Rotate and repeat
The table changes station and the approved process can continue with less handling downtime between cycles.
Collision prevention u00b7 faster recovery
Protect the cutting head and return to production after a detected impact.
The Space Series is described with an anti-collision alarm that stops the laser head immediately when an impact is detected. Once the alarm condition has been cleared, the system is designed to return to its position automatically in one second, reducing the need for manual realignment.
01
Instant stop on collision
A detected impact triggers an immediate stop intended to limit damage to the cutting head and workpiece.
02
One-second automatic reset
After the cause is cleared, the manufacturer describes a one-second automatic return to the previous position.
Collision protection reduces risk but does not replace correct fixtures, verified toolpaths, safe clearances, operator training or routine machine checks.
Integrated safety and cleaner processing
Light-curtain protection and extraction around the active production cell.
Bodor describes safety light curtains in both directions around the loading and unloading zone. Entry into the protected area stops table motion, and the safety logic is designed to prevent an unintended reset while the zone remains occupied. Larger extraction inlets and increased airflow are intended to capture smoke and dust close to the cutting source.
Dual-direction light curtains
Protected access zones are intended to stop rotary-table movement when an operator enters the monitored area.
Locked safety state
The table remains stopped while the safety condition is active, even if a reset is pressed inadvertently.
Source-focused extraction
Airflow and extraction openings are arranged to remove smoke and dust close to the cutting process.
Application-specific risk review
Final guarding, fixtures, access routes and extraction must be reviewed for the component and factory layout.
Production features
Build the cell around repeatability, access, programming and sustained output.
Space combines mechanical structure, intelligent recovery, safety controls and programming tools. The exact software, offline-programming package, fixtures and automation should be selected around the parts that need to be produced.
Precision handling
Dual-station rotary table

Typical application areas
Designed for shaped metal parts that need accurate cuts across multiple surfaces.
Suitability depends on component geometry, material, thickness, fixture design, laser access, tolerance and required cycle time. Representative parts and CAD data should be reviewed before a final specification is issued.
Automotive components
Trim formed panels, body structures, pressings, brackets and prototype or production components with complex edges and apertures.
Aerospace and transport
Process lightweight formed parts and structures where repeatable three-dimensional toolpaths and controlled heat input are important.
Moulds, shells and formed products
Cut openings and profiles in moulded, pressed or fabricated components that cannot be laid flat for conventional sheet processing.
Construction and plant machinery
Prepare guards, covers, cabins and formed structural components used in machinery, equipment and fabricated assemblies.

Space Series questions
What UK manufacturers usually ask about the Bodor Space 3D five-axis laser.
Final answers depend on the component, fixture, laser source, software, options and site conditions. World Machinery can prepare a current written specification after reviewing the application.
What is the Bodor Space Series designed to cut?+
Space is designed for formed and three-dimensional metal components whose cutting path changes across multiple faces, heights or angles. Typical manufacturer-stated application areas include automotive, aerospace, mould making and construction machinery.
What does five-axis laser cutting mean?+
Five-axis processing coordinates the cutting head and machine axes so the beam can follow complex three-dimensional contours. The usable angles, access and tolerance depend on the part, fixture and selected machine configuration.
How does the dual-station rotary table improve productivity?+
One station can be loaded or unloaded while the other is cutting. Bodor publishes a 2.5-second changeover and u00b115-arcsecond positioning reference, but actual cycle performance depends on the component, fixture and programmed process.
What happens if the cutting head detects a collision?+
The manufacturer describes an immediate stop intended to protect the head. After the alarm condition has been cleared, the system is designed to return automatically to its previous position in one second.
What safety systems are used around the loading area?+
The existing World Machinery page describes safety light curtains in both directions. Entering the protected area stops the rotary table and the safety state remains active until the zone is clear. Final guarding and risk assessment must match the installed cell.
How is the Space Series programmed?+
Bodor describes teach-in programming through a multifunction handheld pendant and also references Tebis offline programming. The final software package, post-processing and training should be confirmed for the quoted UK system.
Can World Machinery review our components before we order?+
Yes. Share CAD files, representative parts, materials, thicknesses, tolerances, batch volumes and target cycle times. A fixture and access review is essential before confirming suitability.
Does World Machinery provide UK installation and support?+
