Traditional tube features can take a lot of time. FabLight makes it simple to have exactly what you want, and how you design it in just minutes.
Sheet laser cutting offers many possibilities and complexity in material loading and unloading automation. Tube laser cutting systems have only recently been available with tube storage systems that allow for automatic handling of tubes and sectionbars and unmanned production changes.
Fully-automatic solution that ensures maximum productivity and rapid production changes. Tube O Range min. 0.47" (12 mm) - max. 6" (152.4 mm)3D cutting modeFiber laser
Tubes are and will continue to be used throughout the entire industry, including in system and mechanical engineering as well as furniture construction. New design possibilities have been opened by lasers. This means that more and more designers are utilizing the benefits of laser-cut tube and profile cutting, which is driving up demand. TruLaser Tube machines offer all-round solutions in the field of laser tube cutters.
You should remember that there are no perfect tubes. They have bows. They may protrude from the interior as well as the exterior of the tube. It is difficult to process this material in a consistent and rapid manner when there are such inconsistencies among products.
Lasertube systems allow you to create or improve new applications, allowing you to enter new industries and increase profit margins.
How can you compensate? Traditionally, you would touch the contact points by coming down. Next, rotate the tube and touch the opposite side. This will give the control an indication about how bent the tube may be. This can be used to ensure that through-holes fit the application. Be aware that this reduces your ability to deliver very precise tolerances every time the tube rotates.
Another consideration is the fiber laser’s briefcase-sized modules—they allow for redundancy. If one module has a problem, the resonator doesn’t shut down completely. The fiber laser is redundant in a way that the other modules can produce more power temporarily to support the down module until repairs can be completed—which, by the way, can be done in the field. Other times the fiber resonator can continue producing reduced power until repairs can be made. Unfortunately, if a CO2 resonator has an issue, the entire resonator is down, not just in a reduced-power mode.
StarCut Tube SL consists of a complete turnkey machine. It includes an fsl-laser. This makes it ideal for laser cutting complex metal forms such as thrombectomy stent retrievers.
Parts can be held with automatic tabbering (in FabCreator), as well as a set of jaws at the drive chuck, and the idler-chuck.
We offer the best solutions in laser tube cutting. Discover how lasers are able to reduce the time and increase the amount of parts you can create.
StarCut Tube SL combines an fs-laser to create complex metal shapes.
North America's premier magazine for the metal-forming and fabricating industries, The FABRICATOR, is THE FABRICATOR. The magazine contains news, technical articles, case histories, and other information that will help fabricators perform their jobs more efficiently. Since 1970, The FABRICATOR serves the industry.
Due to the high power needed to create a CO2 Laser, it is less efficient than a fiber-laser. Also, the large chillers that are required to make CO2 lasers work require more power. You are using less power due to the fiber laser's wall plug efficiency exceeding 40 percent. This means that you also use less of your floor space in high-demand areas.
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.
