Every need has its own cutting technology. The materials to be processed, as well as the desired level of productivity and cutting quality, allow users to choose between CO2 and fiber laser cutting systems.
Many of Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.'s tube-laser-cutting systems incorporate intelligent machine functions, such as intelligent monitoring, setup, cutting, and other functions. These automated functions make it easier to operate and increase machine efficiency. These lasers are versatile and can be used in many industries.
Each application requires a different cutting technology. Depending on the type of material and desired productivity and cutting quality, users can choose from CO2 or fiber laser systems.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. can provide a variety of fabrication solutions for processing tubes, pipes, or structural steel. The tube lasers of Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. offer superior laser-cutting technology, but many include additional processing functions that provide value-added benefits to fabricators.

The SL has a rock-solid platform for cutting (the SL uses a base made of mineral casts). These machines provide the highest precision with contour cutting accuracy better than +/-5 um. The latest Monaco USP laser, or the fiber laser, allows for precise cutting of any type of metal or polymer.
Traditional tube features can be tedious. FabLight makes getting exactly what you want and how it was designed easy. It takes just minutes.
There is no shortage of variety in any job shop. Parts of various sizes are not uncommon when you use one tube. The machine should be able unload laser-cut pieces as small as 2in. It can also be extended up to 15 feet, one after the other. It must also be in a position to lift the parts and not damage them. This is often a problem for aluminum or other softer metals.
Most metal fabricators are familiar with the capabilities of fiber laser technology to cut flat sheets. But what can it do for tube-cutting? A lot, actually.
Motion Dynamics is a major manufacturer of neurological sub-assemblies. They include steerable catheters as well as "pull wire" assemblies. Our StarCut Tube machines are used to precision cut key components.
The FABRICATOR is North America's leading magazine for the metal forming and fabricating industry. The magazine delivers the news, technical articles, and case histories that enable fabricators to do their jobs more efficiently. The FABRICATOR has served the industry since 1970.
Our system solutions provide the best selection of options for flexible production of small and large quantities.
Laser systems for electronics manufacturing are fast and high-precision and can be used to cut, mark, weld, mark, or ablate metals and other materials.
Because of the amount of power required to create a CO2 laser, it is less efficient and has a much lower wall plug efficiency when compared to a fiber laser. It follows that the large chillers required for the CO2 lasers need more overall power too. Given the fiber laser resonator’s wall plug efficiency of more than 40 percent, you are not only using less power, but also less of your in-high-demand floor space.
Maximum material cutting thicknesses by 1000W fiber laser cutting machine: Carbon steel has a maximum thickness of 10mm; stainless steel has a maximum thickness of 5mm; aluminum plate has a maximum thickness of 3mm; and copper plate has a maximum thickness of 3mm.
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.
