The Avid CNC Deployable Laser is the perfect complement to our spindle or plasma systems, adding the ability to cut fine details as well as engrave a wide array of materials before or after machining.

Its innovative air-actuated Z-deployment system enables simple transitioning between laser cutting and other machining operations.

• Powerful, Durable and Precise.
• Using industrial-machined aluminum components, the system combines rigidity and precision. Experience ultimate flexibility with the power to cut 3mm plywood in a single pass and the ability to perform detailed cutting and engraving.
• Continuous Use Capable
• Featuring a laser head from a trusted leader in reliable diode laser technology, the system is designed to work all day, every day.
• Automatic Deployment / Retraction
• No tools, no need to remove and put away the laser when switching to spindle operations. Mountable on either side of a PRO Z-Axis, it's compatible with accessories like the Avid CNC Universal Dust Shoe.
• Diverse Material Compatibility
• Capable of cutting a wide range of wood-based materials, leather, textiles, plastics, and more, as well as engrave metals such as carbon steel and anodized aluminum.
• Auxiliary Air Assist
• The laser system control box includes a standard quick connect coupler for easy attachment of additional air tools and provides a continuous stream of air to the work area, improving cutting performance.
• Seamless Tool Switching
• Integrated with Avid CNC's Auto Z and Corner Finding Touch Plate, the system provides precise alignment of the laser head to the material and a calibration routine for seamless switching between spindle and laser offsets.
• Safe for You, Safe for your Machine
• Includes a dedicated key for arming/disarming, failsafe retraction to accommodate loss of air pressure or emergency stop and pressure sensor alert to notify the user if the system is not clear for use.

• Deployment System Kit
• Laser System Controller with Air Assist
• Opt PLH3D-15W high duty cycle Laser Head with 0.007" wide beam
• Long Nozzle for Thin Materials
• Short Nozzle for Thick Materials
• OD7+ Safety Glasses
• Hoses and Cables

• Provides both the holding torque required for indexing operations, as well as the speeds sufficient for true rotary milling operations in a production environment.
• Self-contained within a rigid, all-metal framework to maintain precision alignment between the chuck and tailstock when changing workpieces, regardless of size, even when the entire axis is removed and reinstalled onto your CNC machine.
• Integrated precision linear rails allow for quick and easy setup for different workpiece sizes, while maintaining the precision alignment of the axis.
• Software-guided alignment that is fully integrated with our Auto-Z and Corner Finding Touch Plate.
• Integrated Pepperl + Fuchs inductive proximity sensor provides auto homing and workpiece alignment capabilities.
• Easy step-by-step assembly and calibration instructions
• Proudly designed and supported in the USA

The Rotary Axis Kit is designed to be highly versatile and accommodate many different workpiece sizes, while maintaining traditional routing work areas. It can be mounted to an existing machine parallel with the X or Y axis, or can be recessed into the machine frame to maximize workpiece diameter.


Recessed mounting can only be achieved parallel to the X axis of the machine:




Mounting parallel to the Y axis (perpendicular to the machine gantry) maximizes workpiece length, while mounting parallel to the X axis preserves greater traditional routing work area:
