StarFeed is an automatic loader/unloader that is compatible with the StarCut Tube laser cutting machine. Available in sizes S and S, this combination allows for automated dry or wet cut of tubes from 1-200 mm in diameter. StarFeed L is capable of storing up to 48 tubes. Its sensor-controlled gripping unit avoids damage. The result is a large increase in productivity.
The maintenance of a fiber laser is not as important. It doesn't need mirror cleaning or bellows checks like a CO2 Laser Cutting Machine. It does not need to be cooled with cold water, and air filters can be replaced regularly.
How can this be compensated? Traditionally, you'd touch your face with the sensor at the contact area. The tube will then be rotated and the other end of it touched. This gives the control a good idea of the tube's bend. This technique is precise and will ensure that all through-holes work for your application. The ability to deliver very tight tolerances is affected by every rotation of a tube.
Imagine putting a through hole centered on a tube. It should be centered according to the actual dimension and not just one side of the tube. Bowed tubes will make it more difficult. Tube fabricating is hard work.
PowerLine C CO2 laser systems use CO2 lasers to precisely drill, cut, scribing and mark many nonmetals, such as glass, or organic materials.
StarCut Tube L 600 may be purchased with either a fiber, USP or both lasers. StarCut Tube SL Compact Model has the smallest footprint.

The Coherent StarCut Tube hybrid version offers the best flexibility to cut different medical devices in metals and plastics from flat stock or tubes. This compact, turnkey laser machine combines two lasers into one compact housing.
The StarCut Tube SL is a complete turnkey machine that incorporates an fs-laser and is ideal for laser cutting complex metal shapes such as thrombectomy stent retrievers.
Tubes are the essential building blocks whether you're making equipment for gyms or for smaller, multifunctional exercise devices for your home. This is why so many technologies for tube processing, like bending and laser-cutting, are widely used within this sector.
Coherent StarCut Tube 'hybrid' version provides the highest flexibility for cutting medical devices made of metals or plastics. This machine integrates two lasers within a compact housing.
The laser beam is the most important component of the laser cutter; it determines wavelength and power, and thus the material that it can cut or engrave. Solid-state lasers, fiber lasers, and CO2 lasers are the three main types of lasers used in laser cutting.
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.
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.
