Tube Lasers Cutting Systems Ohio

Keep in mind that the traditional method for checking for twists or bows within the tube can take between five and seven seconds before cutting begins. Traditional touch sensing methods can be slow and inaccurate. While this may seem like a long time in the ageof fiber laser cutter, it is actually not that simple when working with tubes.

Secondary operations are eliminated: A tube Laser can cut a length of piece, add holes and cutout other designs in one operation. It also eliminates the need for additional actions like manual material removal. For more complex fabrications, you can maintain tight tolerances. Parts can easily be manufactured from one continuous raw material. Tube laser aluminum, stainless-steel and carbon can be made.

Imagine that you have to position a through-hole on top of a tube. It must be centered on the tube's actual dimension. It will be more difficult to center the tube if it is bent. This is the reality of tube fabrication.

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.

Let's look below at the advantages of using an automatic tube and section bar storage system with a Lasertube cutting system.
