StarFiber Series combine compact fiber lasers with optional focusing heads for laser welding or cutting, including SmartWeld™ technology for fine and wide welds.

Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. has a team of experts that will work with you to develop a program tailored to your requirements. We'll examine how your part is being made, evaluate its use or application, then work with your to determine and fulfill your requirements.

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.

StarFeed can be used as an automated loader/unloader to the StarCut Tube laser cutting machine. It comes in two sizes, S and L. The StarFeed allows you to fully automate dry and wet cutting for tubes of any diameter from 1-20mm. StarFeed L can store 48 tubes and allows processing of oval tubing. Its sensor-controlled gripping unit avoids damage. The result is a substantial increase in productivity.

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.

A fiber laser's operation can reveal some subtleties that are not obvious. The fiber laser beam has a much higher power density than the CO2 laser beam due to its smaller beam diameter. This not only allows the fiber laser to cut faster but also allows it to pierce quicker. The fiber is able to cut complex shapes and leave sharp edges because of the smaller beam size. Imagine cutting out a company logo from a tube, with letters spaced at 0.035 inches. A fiber can do that while a CO2 laser cannot.

The applications of tubes and profiles are numerous. The use of processed tubes and profiles is endless, in every industry. The laser-assisted production of tubes and profile offers many possibilities for design and manufacturing.

Many of Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.s tube laser cutting systems include intelligent machine functions that include monitoring, setup, as well as cutting. This automates machine operation making it more efficient and easy to use. This machine is ideal for many industries, and a wide variety of applications due to its tube and pipe-laser capabilities.

Fiber lasers have a wavelength of 1.06 microns, which is 10 percent smaller than that of a CO2 laser beam. With its much smaller wavelength, the fiber laser produces a beam that is much more easily absorbed by the reflective material; a CO2 laser is much more likely to reflect off the surface of these materials. Because of this, fiber laser cutting machines can cut brass, copper, and other reflective materials. It should be noted that a CO2 laser beam that reflects off the material can not only damage the machine’s cutting lens, but also the entire beam path. Using a fiber-optic cable for the beam path removes this risk.

Metal fabricators are well-versed in the basics of fiber laser cutting technology for flat sheet processing. But what about tube cutting? It's quite a lot.

A tube extension is available to load tube stock upto 80", or 6’8". It is important to note that the maximum part sizes remain at 52".

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.
