Tube Laser Cutting Machine Trumpf
The StarFeed is an automated loader/unloader for the StarCut Tube laser cutting machine and is available in sizes S and L. This combination allows fully automated dry or wet cutting of tubes from 1-20 mm diameter. The StarFeed L stores up to 48 tubes and even allows the processing of oval tubes. Its sensor-controlled gripping unit avoids damage. The end result is a big increase in productivity.
Some things are extremely obvious. The size of the laser "generator," on a fiber laser, is much smaller than that of a traditional CO2 resonanceator. The fiber laser is made up of banks of diodes. Each module can hold 600 to 1,500W. Multiple modules can be spliced together in order to create the final powered-resonator. This module is typically about the same size and shape as a small filing box. Fiber-optic cable channels the light generated and amplifies it. The light is still the same quality and power when it exits the fibre-optic conduit. It is then adjusted for the type and focus of the material to be cut.
Fiber lasers have high cutting speeds for thin material. These fiber lasers require minimal maintenance and have low power consumption. These laser cutting technologies have special properties, which allow them to be used in steel, stainless, aluminum, and other non-ferrous materials, like copper, brass, and bronze.
Whatever your customers' requests, with Lasertube you can recommend improvements to part design from the extensive library of connectionsfor assembling without screws or welds.
It is important to remember that traditional ways of checking for twists and bows can take up five or seven seconds, before cutting can begin. Touch sensing can only be used for precision. It can seem that this is all a lot, but it's not the same as working with sheetmetal.
A laser cutting machine that cuts sheet metal can change out a sheet in seconds. The same can be done on a laser tube cutting machine, but it’s a whole different story as to how it’s done.
StarCut Tube SL combines an fs-laser to create complex metal shapes.
You might have noticed that cutting speed has not been discussed yet. While it is possible for a tube to be cut at up to 500 inches per min, that is not always possible. Laser tube cutting requires that you focus on the time it takes to load a tube and index it in order to cut. Laser tube cutters are slow and take a lot of time to process parts.
Secondary operations can be eliminated: A tube laser can easily cut a piece of material to the desired length, add holes or other cutout designs in one step. This eliminates the need for manual material removal. This allows you to maintain tight tolerances for more complicated fabrications. You can make parts from one continuous piece. This allows you to ensure they fit in one direction and is easy to assemble. Tube laser aluminum, carbon and stainless steel can all be tubed.
Coherent StarCut Tube Hybrid version gives you the most flexibility in cutting different medical devices. This is a complete turnkey laser machine that incorporates two lasers inside a compact housing.
TruLaser Tube 3000 Fiber is a worthwhile laser tube cutter. It is affordable even when not in use. It is ideal for beginners or as an additional machine due to its reliability.
This is the simplest way to get into tube laser cutting. Tubes up to O 4,72 inches (120 mm).2D cutFiber laser
