Zusammenfassung:A combination punch press and laser cutting machine has a C-shaped frame with a platform extending rearwardly from the web of the frame. Supported on the platform is a laser beam generator with vibration isolating fluid mounting elements disposed therebetween to support the generator on a fluid medium during operation as a punching machine. A laser beam transport system extends forwardly along the side of the frame and has a beam redirection component to effect angular and planar reorientation of the beam at the front of the frame. A cutting head is mounted on the front of the head of the frame and has a nozzle and internal optics to focus the beam through the nozzle onto the workpiece, and the cutting head is movable from an operative position in which the nozzle is located on the axis of reciprocation of the punch ram to an inoperative position in which it is spaced therefrom.
