Monaco high-power, femtosecond-lasers offer superior edge quality for micromachining and improved scientific applications such as three-photon microscopy.
To close the time gap when it comes to tube checks, some machinery manufacturers are using cameras for these checks. They reduce the quality check to about half a second and also reduce the number of rotations that are required. This allows the machine to retain productivity as well as accuracy.
When making fitness equipment, the most important components are durability, usability, compactness, and design.

StarCut Tube, the laser cutting system StarCut Tube, SL offers high precision, superior reliability and high performance when cutting complex medical device such as stents or aortic replacements.
You can find the right technology to meet your needs. You have the option of either CO2 laser or fiber laser cutting systems depending on what materials you are working with and how much productivity and quality you desire.
How can you compensate for this? Traditionally, you will touch your face with a sensor marking the contact point. The tube is then rotated and the opposite end of the tube touched. The control will then be able to see how bent the tube looks. This allows for precise measurements and ensures that the through-holes will work properly. Keep in mind, however, that every rotation of the tube reduces the ability for very high tolerances.
There are two options for laser cutting technology: 2D or 3-D. You can customize and cut parts in many different shapes. For example, you can make tubes that have round, square and rectangular shapes. Also, you can cut profiles with various open cross-sections like H, L, T and Ucross-sections. 3D technology can also be used to make bevel cuts as high as 45degrees. This versatility makes it possible to eliminate the need for expensive milling, drilling and punching as well as sawing.
Find laser systems for electronics production that can perform high-precision, fast cutting, welding, marking and ablation of metals or plastics.
The option to choose between 2D/3D laser cutting technology allows for the possibility of customizing and precise cutting parts in a wide range of shapes. These include tubes with square, rectangular, and round shapes, as well as profiles with varied open cross-sections (e.g. H, L. T, Ucross-sections). 3D technology is capable of cutting straight edges up to 45degrees. This flexibility makes it unnecessary to perform costly milling and drilling, punching, punching, or other sawing operations.
Use Coherent laser systems to cut, weld, drill, texturize, and mark medical devices for precision manufacturing.
Many people believed that fiber lasers could only cut thin materials. The CO2, due to its longer wavelength created enough kerf when cutting thick materials. Fiber lasers couldn't produce the same result with thicker material. Recent developments have addressed this problem with collimating technologies that produce a larger fiber laser-generated beam which creates materials separation. Switchable beam width allows the machine to use the narrower beam for processing thin materials. This allows the machine to process multiple-sized materials more quickly on one fiber laser cutting machine.
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.
Laser tube cutting is a method and technique for cutting tubes, structural shapes, or channels. These items will be cut to the required length during the process. It can also make holes or designs in tubing. It is a precise cutting method.
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.
Laser cutting pipe is the best way to achieve repeatable and precise cutting in applications where the precision of the cut itself is important.
