NIT uses a Coherent Laser Cutting Machine to Vertically Produce Nitinol and Other Metal Components with outstanding precision and edge quality.
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.
A laser cutter that cuts sheet metal can transform a sheet of paper in seconds. You can also do the same with a laser tube cutter machine but it is a completely different story about how it is done.
NIT's Coherent laser cutting machine is used to vertically produce nitinol, and other metal components. It has exceptional precision and edge quality.
Shape laser technology allows for a complete customization and cut-to-length capabilities in just one step. Finished or semi-finished parts are produced from raw material.
ExactCut 430 can be used to automate the automated processing of thick and thin metals and alloys as well as brittle materials, such as sapphire and PCD.
Laser tube cutting machines do not have standard material towers. Bundle loaders provide the fastest method of handling tube material. One tube is fed from a bundle into the tube laser by a singularizing system. This type isn't able to feed open profiles like angles and channels. They interlock in the bundle and are not easy to get free. Step loaders can be used to sequence open profiles one by one into the machine, while still maintaining the proper orientation.
High cutting performance is a hallmark of CO2 lasers. They are most useful in medium-to-high material thicknesses. Laser beam cutting edges are low-scoring and throughburr-free. The laser beam can also be used to cut additional parts without the need for rework.
Eliminate secondary operations: A tube laser can cut a piece to length and add holes and other cutout designs in a single step, eliminating the need for secondary actions and manual material removal. You gain the ability to hold tight tolerances on more complex fabrications. Parts can be produced from one continuous piece of raw material to ensure that they only fit one way and are easily assembled. We can tube laser aluminum, stainless steel and carbon.
We are leaders in the production of advanced laser-cutting technologies, as well as CNC controls and automated systems.
Lasertube systems are our 2D and 3D laser cutting systems for tubes, bars and profiles, from 12 mm to 610 mm (.5” to 24") in diameter and up to 18 m (60') in length.
Some things are difficult to see until you have a closer look at the fiber laser operating. Fiber lasers have a larger power density than CO2 laser beams because their beam diameter is typically one-third that of CO2 beams. This allows fiber to cut more quickly and also allows it pierce better. This allows the fiber to cut intricate shapes with sharp edges and leaves a smaller beam size. Imagine that a fiber can cut the company logo from a tube with spacing of 0.035 in between its letters; a CO2 laser is incapable of doing this.
This machine can be used for processing XXL-sized tubes. This machine, which is a solid state laser, can be used in many ways to make tubes and profiles.
Laser tube cutting is a method and technique for cutting tubes, structural shapes, or channels. These items will be cut to the required length during the process. It can also make holes or designs in tubing. It is a precise cutting method.
The laser beam is the most important component of the laser cutter; it determines wavelength and power, and thus the material that it can cut or engrave. Solid-state lasers, fiber lasers, and CO2 lasers are the three main types of lasers used in laser cutting.
