Final Accuracy
NIT shows how a Coherent laser cutter machine can be used for vertical manufacturing of Nitinol or other metal components. This machine has outstanding precision and edge-quality.
Check out our StarCut Tube laboratory and production area to see more about these fully-automated multi-axis CNC machine for tubes and flat materials.
No downtime or extended lead times: By combining a tube mill and tube laser in a single facility, we can move your project through each stage with no gaps or delays. We are a full line service center that will:
Fiber lasers are capable of cutting thin materials with high speeds. Fiber lasers are very efficient and low in power consumption, but require very little maintenance. Laser cutting technology is able to cut steel, stainless and aluminum as well as nonferrous metals such copper and brass.
No need for multiple vendors and orders to be coordinated. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. has the ability to manage everything, including material procurement and past delivery.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.'s team of experts can work with you to develop innovative designs that can improve aesthetics, increase functionality and deliver new products to market faster.
You may have noticed that we haven’t discussed cutting speed yet. It is possible to cut up to 500 inches per minute on a tube, but that’s not always realistic. In laser tube cutting, the real focus should be on how long it takes to load a tube, index it so it’s in the right position for cutting, pierce and cut it, and unload the part. It’s more about part-processing time with laser tube cutting machines, not cutting speed.
Fiber lasers are practically maintenance-free and have superior wall plug efficiency to CO2 laser cutters. They can also cut reflective materials and provide precise cutting. They can also be used to cut certain metal thicknesses faster than CO2 machines. Speed is relative when it involves cutting tube. It is possible to reduce the time required for tube processing and produce finished parts faster.
Let's examine the benefits of using an automated tube storage system and section bar storage system in conjunction with a Lasertube-cutting system.
With laser generating technology, sheet laser cutting machines can now be sold with power outputs up to 12kW. A laser tube-cutting machine usually has a power consumption of 5 kW. Any more power would cause the tube to be cut on both sides simultaneously.
We offer the best solutions to laser tube-cutting. Lasers can be used to eliminate whole processes while also increasing the variety of parts you are able produce.
We offer a tube extension for loading tube stock up to 80", or 6'8". Note that the maximum part size remains 52"
Traditional tube features are time-consuming. FabLight makes it quick and easy to create exactly the look you desire.
Sheet laser cutting offers many possibilities and complexity in material loading and unloading automation. Tube laser cutting systems have only recently been available with tube storage systems that allow for automatic handling of tubes and sectionbars and unmanned production changes.
