StarFeed is an automated unloader/loader for StarCut Tube laser cutters. It is available in two sizes: S and L. These combination options allow fully automated dry and wet cutting of tubes up to 20 mm diameter. StarFeed L can store up to 48 tubes, and it even supports the processing of oval tubes. Its sensor-controlled gripping unit avoids damage. This results in a significant increase in productivity.
In the manufacture of fitness equipment, design, durability and usability are key construction principles.
Some things aren’t quite as evident until you take a closer look at a fiber laser in operation. Because its beam diameter is often one-third the size of a CO2 beam, a fiber laser has a greater power density than a CO2 laser beam. Not only does this allow the fiber to cut faster, but it also allows it to pierce faster. This smaller beam size also gives the fiber the ability to cut intricate shapes and leave sharp edges. Imagine cutting a company logo out of a tube when the spacing between the logo’s letters is 0.035 inch; a fiber can make that cut, while a CO2 laser can’t.
These machines have a rock-solid cutting platform (the SL uses a minerals cast base) and offer unparalleled precision. Contoured cutting accuracy is better than +/-5um. The choice between a fiber laser and the new Monaco USP allows fine cutting of any kind of metal or polymer.
StarCut Tubes SL is a laser cutting system that provides high accuracy, superior reliability, as well as high performance for cutting complicated medical devices such stents.
Laser tube cutting at home doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. Students and engineers alike can cut like never seen before
Motion Dynamics is a leader in the manufacture of neuro-sub-assemblies. This includes steerable catheters, "pull-wire" assemblies and other neurological components. We use our StarCut Tube machines to precisely cut key components.
Tubes are very simple and do not require a powerful laser. Tube laser cutting machines require only 5 kW power, whereas flat sheet laser cutters can be powered by laser generators up to 12 kW. When cutting a tube, it is important to always think about the other side. A stronger laser would simply blow through the tube on the opposite side during cutting. You don't need to worry about the other side if you're processing a beam of a channel or a channel using the tube laser.
Another consideration in tube cutting is the weld seam. This material is roll-formed and welded together. This brings up two points that typically must be addressed:
Motion Dynamics is a top manufacturer of neurological subassemblies. These include steerable catheters and "pullwire" assemblies. Motion Dynamics makes use of StarCut Tube machines for precise cutting of key components.
It's 1/3 of a full 20-foot (248") tube making it convenient for you to make 3 pieces of stock. This allows for you to still purchase full tubes lengths without wasting any material.
Sheet laser cutting machines are now sold with laser generating technology capable of delivering as much as 12 kW of power. A laser tube cutting machine typically tops out at 5 kW because any more power would simultaneously cut through the opposite side of the tube.
StarCut Tube is a tube-cutting laser machine that offers precision up to +/- 5um.
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.
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.
