Tube Laser Cutting Systems Lens Price
Perhaps you have noticed that we haven’t yet discussed cutting speed. Although it is possible to cut 500 inches per minute with a tube, this is not always feasible. Laser tube cutting should not be about how long it takes for a tube to be loaded, indexed so that it is in the right place for cutting, pierce it and then unload it. Laser tube cutting machines are more concerned with part-processing times than cutting speed.
High-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.
A second consideration is the fiber laser’s compact modules. They allow for redundancy. The resonator can still shut down when one module is having a problem. The fiber laser is redundant so that other modules can temporarily produce more power to support the down module while repairs are made. These can also be done in field. The fiber resonator may also continue to produce lower power until it can be repaired. The entire CO2 resonator can go down if it has an issue.
It is one third of a 20-foot (20-24") tube. This makes it possible to make three separate stock items. This allows you to purchase full tube lengths while not wasting material.
Lasertube can help you make improvements to parts based on your customers' needs.
No downtime or extended lead time: Because we combine a tube machine and a laser, each stage of your project can be completed in one location. We can offer full-service support for all your needs.
A tube's very nature prevents the use of high-powered lasers. Flat sheet laser cutting machines can now be equipped with laser generators that are as powerful as 12kW. Tube laser cutting machines, however, only require 5kW. You must always consider the side you are cutting when you work with a tube. A stronger laser will simply cut through the tube from the opposite end. (Officially, you don't have any need to worry if you are cutting a beam or channel with the tube laser.
StarCut Tube Lab and Production Area - Take a look inside to find out more about our fully-automated, multiaxis CNC machines. These machines can cut tubes and flat material, as well medical devices such stents or hypotubes, PTCA, TAVR, and other devices.
This is a third of the full 20-foot (240") length of a tube. It makes it easy to make three stock pieces. You can still buy full length tubes without having to waste any material
You may have noticed we haven’t covered cutting speed. Although you can cut up 500 inches per minute using a tube cutter, it's not always practical. Laser tube cutting involves focusing on the time required to load a tube, index the tube so it's in a good position for cutting and then pierce, cut and unload the part. It is not about cutting speed, but part-processing time when laser tube cutting machines are used.
Tubes and profiles can be found everywhere, in mechanical engineering and system building as well as the furniture industry. Because lasers offer new design possibilities, more and more designers are taking full advantage of the laser-cut profile and tube benefits. This is a significant increase in demand. Find out all about TruLaser Tube machines and the many solutions available in laser tube cutting.
Cameras are being used by machinery manufacturers to inspect tubes. The quality check takes only about half an second, and the rotations required are reduced. This allows the machine's productivity to be maintained as well as its accuracy.
