A weld-seam is an additional consideration when cutting tube. This material can be roll-formed and welded together. This raises two issues that must be addressed.

You can eliminate secondary operations. A tube laser is able to cut a piece and add holes, or any other cutout design in one step. The ability to control tolerances on more complicated fabrications is gained. To ensure parts fit together in a single way, you can use one continuous piece. We can tube laser-cut aluminum, stainless and carbon.

North America's foremost magazine for the metal fabricating and metal forming industry, FABRICATOR. The magazine features news, technical articles, as well as case histories, that help fabricators do their jobs more efficiently. Since 1970, FABRICATOR is serving the industry.

Fiber lasers require little maintenance, are more efficient than traditional CO2 laser cutting machines and can cut reflective materials. They are also faster than CO2 machines for certain metal thicknesses. When it comes to cutting tubes, speed is not necessarily a good thing. You can save time by speeding up the tube processing and producing finished parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

from 3 months to 3 years
Glass CO2 laser tubes all degrade over time, with lifespans ranging from 3 months to 3 years. With use, the CO2 inside the tube degrades into carbon monoxide and oxygen. Overdriving the tube only accelerates this process and shortens its working life.

CO2 laser cutters are the most commonly used types of laser cutters because they are low power, relatively inexpensive, efficient, and can cut through and raster a wide range of materials.

What is the operation of a CO2 Laser? Modern CO2 machines typically generate the laser beam in a sealed glass tube filled with gas, typically carbon dioxide. A high voltage flows through the tube, interacting with the gas particles and increasing their energy, resulting in the production of light.
