Tube Laser Technology
Lasertube allows you to make suggestions for improvements to your customers' parts design. The extensive library of connections can be used for assembly without the use of screws or welding.
Leaders in the manufacturing of advanced laser cutting solutions.
Tube Lasers Cutting Systems Houston TxHigh-speed cutting is often the first thing fabricators associate with fiber laser cutting technology. Although this may be true for tube cutting, speed is a relative term. It is not about cutting speed, but the time it takes for a tube to be processed to meet its specifications.
Some things are obvious. A fiber laser has a smaller laser "generator" than a CO2-resonator. Actually, the fiber laser is made by banks of diodes which are combined in a small module. These modules can have a power range from 600 to 1,500 W. To create the final powered resonance, multiple modules are spliced together. This is usually the same size as a small filing cupboard. The fiber-optic cables channel the light and amplify it. Fiber-optic cables transmit the same light as when they were generated, with no loss of power and quality. The fiber-optic cable is then adjusted and focused to cut the appropriate material.
ExactCut 430 laser cutting machine is a precise laser cutting system that automates the processing of thin and heavy metals, alloys, brittle materials such as sapphire, PCD and ceramics.
Cambus Medical uses Coherent StarCut Tube to cut tubes and Select Laser Welders in order to build business success.
North America's top magazine for the metal forming/fabricating industry is The FABRICATOR. The magazine offers news, technical information, and case histories to assist fabricators in doing their jobs more efficiently. Since 1970 the FABRICATOR served the industry.

StarCut Tube L 600 can be ordered with either a fiber laser, USP laser, or both. StarCut Tube SL compact model has the smallest footprint on the market.
The application of processed tubes and profiles is manifold. Whether in the automotive industry, furniture design, architecture, petrochemical industry or commercial vehicle construction. In many industries, the laser-assisted processing of tubes and profiles offers an almost unlimited manufacturing spectrum for components and unique design possibilities.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. can provide a variety of fabrication solutions for processing tubes, pipes, or structural steel. The tube lasers of Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. offer superior laser-cutting technology, but many include additional processing functions that provide value-added benefits to fabricators.
A few machinery manufacturers now use cameras to verify tubes. The cameras reduce the quality inspection to less than a second, as well as the number of required rotations. This allows the machine both to remain productive and accurate.
With a rock-solid cutting platform (the SL uses a mineral cast base) these machines offer the ultimate in precision, with contour cutting accuracies better than +/- 5 µm. A choice of fiber laser or the latest Monaco USP laser enables fine cutting of any polymer or metal.
The high cutting speed of CO2 lasers is what makes them stand out. Their main application area is the medium-to-high range of material thicknesses. The laser beam cuts with high precision and is free from burrs. This allows the parts to be processed further without needing to be reworked.
