Optional Items

Wi-fi Router
Wi-Fi router allows you to transmit data through a wireless network. It can work with GCC laser engravers and RX II/ Jaguar V cutting plotters through the Ethernet port (not applicable for Japanese users.) Whether you are sending files to multiple GCC machines using one PC or sharing one unit of GCC machines with multiple PCs, this wireless technology can be an excellent helper

Rotary Chuck - S290LS / FMC280
Handy rotary chuck to work with cylindrical metal objects like pipes, engineering parts, and even spherical objects with tilt angle. In addition to the standard X, Y, Z axis, the rotary Chuck allows for a fourth axis which rotates the object 360° to allow for laser engraving and cutting on spherical objects. The diameter range of the to-be-engraved object is 0.5mm to 120mm and the max. length of the object is 410mm. Its maximum weight should not exceed 4kgs.

Thin Metal Film Clamping Device
The Thin Metal Film Clamping Device prevents thin metal materials from curling due to high-pressure assisted gas and thermal distortion during high-power laser cutting. It maintains material flatness and ensures precise focus, resulting in high-quality cuts. The working area of the Thin Metal Film Clamping Device measures 458mm x 305mm (18” x 12”).

Magnetic Fixture
Arrange Magnetic Fixtures to hold working piece firmly with flexibility to accommodate different cutting paths, the cutting quality is ensured with consistent focal distance between working piece and cutting head.

SmartAIR Ultra Nozzle
SmartAIR Ultra Nozzle delivers assisted gas to media with extended length when cutting thicker metals, result in clear cutting edge.

SmartTOOL™
The GCC SmartTOOL™ is a Windows CorelDraw extension that drastically reduces process times. It simplifies tasks, saves time, and is intuitive to use without training. You will be amazed by its features.
FMC 280 GCC Laser Cutter Features

Unique Fiber Laser Source with Exquisite Cutting Capability
World leading fiber laser source with unique laser firing mode control meets variety metal sheets processing demand. Powerful cutting capability to handle up to 3mm thick stainless steel and high reflective metals (aluminum, copper) with clear edge now possible.

Capacitive Cutting Head with Autofocus
Precise Capacitor Cutting Head keeps consistent focal distance between cutting head and heat deformed material to obtain consistent cutting quality over the platform. The non-contact cutting procedure prevents scratch on the materials to create clean cutting edge.

RoHS Compliance
All GCC products are RoHS-compliant (the European Parliament Directive 2002/ 95/ EC, Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and lead-free (pb free). GCC will continue to concern and provide environmentally friendly products to protect the earth for our further generation.

KDrag-N-Play
The "Drag-N-Play" feature greatly reduces complex set up procedures and allows users to directly drag the lens carriage to the starting point of a job.

DuraGuide™ Motion Design
Systematic and reliable motion system embedded with strong mechanical framework, reinforced Kevlar belts, and accurate servomotor control technology to deliver superb output quality. SmartSEAL™ dust protection design to keep dust from the motion system to reduce daily maintenance and prolong rail’s life cycle.

Closed-loop DC Servo Technology
A Closed-loop DC servo motor can deliver greater continuous shaft power at higher speeds than a stepper of the same frame size. In addition, It can also give far greater accuracy due to closed-loop position feedback and the continuous movement, instead of constant stopping and starting. GCC LaserPro high speed closed-loop DC servo motor technology guarantees precise and fast carriage movement with exceptionally accurate outputs.

Automatic Table to Load up to 120 mm (4.7") Thick Objects
The automatic table movement can allow to load thick working objects and diversify the application possibility.

Built-In Networking Connection
Network connection enables multiple laser engravers to be operated by one PC and multiple PCs to share a single unit of laser engraver. The Ethernet port has made data transmission easier and faster for GCC LaserPro users using network connection. Free your designers with great flexibility and maximum machine versatility.

Programmable Origin Modes
Easy-to-use multiple position modes allow the operators an effortless way to setup a job with Drag-N- Play. Repetitive workflows can be drastically simplified by relocating the origin position to any desired location.

Intuitive Control Panel Interface
A user-friendly menu-driven interface system simplifies complex tasks. Hot keys design and job status display facilitates your work and makes it clear and easy to carry out.

Innovative Windows Driver
Directly output from familiar designing software like Illustrator, CorelDraw, AutoCad through GCC LaserPro Windows driver. The innovative driver featuring powerful functions, such as SmartCENTER, Bridge Cutting, Drill, and more to reduce set up time and make easy adjustments to achieve marvelous output quality.

Collecting Drawer
It is a convenient design for users to collect completed workpieces and clean scrap easily.

SmartLIGHT
Built-in LED light module illuminates the working space and makes every detail easy to see

Key Switch & Emergency Stop
Key switch safeguards the machine from unauthorized use. Prominent emergency button located on the top of the machine allows operators to stop the laser and the motion carriage immediately to provide a safe operating environment.
