Flowstate Industrial
Calculator
Built for Laser Operations

Know Your Cutters Are Performing
Before Quality Drops.

Laser power, assist gas, cut speed, and quality monitoring on every cutter. Data flowing in 7 days.

One caught beam degradation saves $2,000-$15,000 in rework and lens replacement.

Laser Operation Problems We Solve

Every laser operator knows these costs. Flowstate turns quality surprises into data-driven consistency.

Beam Quality Degradation

$2,000-$15,000

Lens contamination and beam misalignment cause cut quality issues detected only at inspection.

Laser power and focal position monitoring catches drift mid-shift.

Assist Gas Waste

$500-$2,000/mo

Gas consumption varies by operator and setup with no visibility into waste.

Per-job gas consumption tracking with shift-to-shift comparison.

Cut Speed Unknown

10-25% Hidden Loss

Actual cut speed versus programmed speed is never measured. Feed overrides go untracked.

Real-time feed rate and cut speed monitoring per program.

No Machine Comparison

5-15% Hidden Loss

Multiple cutters on the floor but no data to compare throughput or quality.

Per-machine dashboards with OEE and quality trending.

How It Works

Step 1

We Install

Edge gateway connects to your laser controllers via Modbus or OPC-UA. Sensors add power and gas flow monitoring.

Step 2

Data Flows

Laser power, gas pressure, cut speed, and machine state stream to your dashboards within 7 days.

Step 3

Drift Caught Early

Power deviation alerts flag beam degradation mid-shift. Gas tracking prevents waste. Weekly machine performance reports.

All-Inclusive Laser Monitoring

Hardware + installation + platform + support. One per-machine price.

90-Day ROI Guarantee
