The fiber laser's small modules, which are compact and easily transportable, allow for redundancy. The resonator won't completely shut down if one module experiences a problem. In order to provide power for the down module, the fiber laser can temporarily produce more power until it is repaired. This can, of course, be done in the field. Sometimes, the fiber resonator will continue to produce reduced power until repairs are made. If a CO2 reactor has an issue, it can cause the whole resonator to go down.

The tube cutting laser machine StarCut Tube offers the ultimate precision, with contour cutting accuracies better than +/- 5µm.

You might have noticed that cutting speed has not been discussed yet. While it is possible for a tube to be cut at up to 500 inches per min, that is not always possible. Laser tube cutting requires that you focus on the time it takes to load a tube and index it in order to cut. Laser tube cutters are slow and take a lot of time to process parts.

Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. offers tube laser manufacturing capabilities that allow our customers to replace manual processes, and optimize the cutting process.

Lasertube Technology

Fiber lasers can cut thin materials at high speeds. They are also very energy-efficient and require little maintenance. This laser cutting technology has special properties that allow for applications in steel, stainless steel, aluminum, as well as non-ferrous metals like copper and brass.

Fiber lasers can be used to cut reflective materials and provide precise cutting. They are almost maintenance-free. They can also cut certain thicknesses of metal faster than CO2 lasers. But speed is only relative when cutting tube. Speeding up the process of cutting tube and producing finished products can make time savings.

Most metal fabricators have a strong understanding of what fiber laser cutting technology has done for flat sheet processing, but just what has the fiber laser done for tube cutting? Quite a bit, actually.

Some things are obvious. A fiber laser has a smaller laser "generator" than a CO2-resonator. Actually, the fiber laser is made by banks of diodes which are combined in a small module. These modules can have a power range from 600 to 1,500 W. To create the final powered resonance, multiple modules are spliced together. This is usually the same size as a small filing cupboard. The fiber-optic cables channel the light and amplify it. Fiber-optic cables transmit the same light as when they were generated, with no loss of power and quality. The fiber-optic cable is then adjusted and focused to cut the appropriate material.

There is a cutting technology that suits every need. Users have two options: CO2 laser cuttingsystems or fiber laser cutting systems, depending on the material to be cut and the level of productivity desired.

Keep in mind that there is no such thing as a perfect tube. They have bows. Weld seams can protrude not only on the exterior but also the interior of the tube. It’s a real challenge to process this material consistently and rapidly when such inconsistencies exist from one product run to another.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.
