Let's look below at the advantages of using an automatic tube and section bar storage system with a Lasertube cutting system.
Our tube laser manufacturing capabilities allow Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. to offer our customers the opportunity to replace manual processes and improve the cutting process.
A CO2 laser requires more power to produce than a fiber laser. This makes it less efficient and has lower wall plug efficiency. You will also need to use more power for the large CO2 laser chillers. Because the fiber laser-resonator's wall-plug efficiency is greater than 40 percent, it uses less power as well as less of your in high-demand flooring space.
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.
Learn how the Coherent StarCut Tube, StarFiber laser-powered cutting tools helped NPX Medical achieve a competitive edge when it comes to stent manufacturing.
You can manufacture medical devices with precision and maximum availability using Coherent lasers for cutting and drilling, texturizing, texturizing, and marking.

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.
With a laser tube-cutting machine, there are no standard towers. Bundle loads are the most efficient method for handling tubes. These loaders feed one tube per bundle into the tube cutter via a singularizing mechanism. This feeding method is not compatible with open profiles such as angles or channels. Because they interlock within a bundle, and don't allow for easy release, this type of feeding doesn't work. Step loaders are employed for open profiles. These machines sequence one section at a time and maintain the correct orientation.
StarFiber Series are compact fiber lasers that include optional focusing heads. These can be used for laser cutting and welding, or for laser cutting. SmartWeldTM technology is available for fine welds.
CO2 lasers are characterized by their high cutting quality.Their primary area of application lies in the medium to high range of materialthicknesses. The cutting edges achieved with the laser beam excel throughburr-free cutting and low scoring. This means that the cut parts can beprocessed further without reworking.
It's one-third of a full 20 foot (240") tube. Therefore, it is convenient to make three stocks. This allows you still to buy full tube lengths, without having any wasted material.
Imagine that you need to put a through-hole at the center of a tube. It must be centered to the actual dimensions, not just one. This will make things more complicated. This is how tube manufacturing works.
We offer the best solutions to laser tube-cutting. Lasers can be used to eliminate whole processes while also increasing the variety of parts you are able produce.
Pipe and tubing Cutting Procedures:
Rotate the pipe cutter around. Tighten the cutter slightly and rotate it around the pipe several times. Repeat until the pipe is severed by the blade. Steel pipe can be cut with a hacksaw, reciprocating saw, or steel-pipe tubing cutter.
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.
