There are many ways to use processed tubes and profiles. It can be used in automotive, furniture design, architecture, and commercial vehicle construction. The laser-assisted processing (profiles and tubes) offers a wide range of manufacturing options and unique design possibilities in many industries.
Reduce secondary operations: A tube-laser can cut a piece to size and add holes and other cutouts in one step. It eliminates the need to perform secondary actions or manually remove material. It is possible to keep tight tolerances even on complex fabrications. Parts can be made from one continuous piece. They are easy to put together and fit perfectly. We can also tube laser carbon, stainless steel, and aluminum.
Eliminate secondary operations: A tube laser can cut a piece to length and add holes and other cutout designs in a single step, eliminating the need for secondary actions and manual material removal. You gain the ability to hold tight tolerances on more complex fabrications. Parts can be produced from one continuous piece of raw material to ensure that they only fit one way and are easily assembled. We can tube laser aluminum, stainless steel and carbon.
There is no downtime, extended lead times or downtime: We combine a tube mill with a tube laser in one facility so that we can get your project through each stage without any delays or gaps. We can provide full service for your project.
The weld seam is another consideration when tube cutting. This material is roll-formed, then welded together. Two points are usually required to be addressed.
Let's look below at the advantages of using an automatic tube and section bar storage system with a Lasertube cutting system.
Some things can be quite obvious. The fiber laser "generator", as it is called, is smaller than traditional CO2 resonators. The fiber laser is actually created by banks and modules of diodes. They can be assembled into a compact module with a power range of 600 to 1,500 watts. A number of modules are combined to make the final powered receiver, which is often the size of small filing cabinets. The light is amplified and channeled through fiber-optic cabling. The fiber-optic cable transmits the light exactly as it was before. This ensures that there is no loss of quality or power. Then, it is adjusted and focused according to the material being cut.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. offers tube laser manufacturing capabilities that allow our customers to replace manual processes, and optimize the cutting process.
The tube laser cutting solution has the greatest working range. Tubes upto O 9.45" (240mm), 3D cutting modeCO2 OR fiber laser
This is your easiest route to tube laser cutting. Tubes as large as O 4,72" (120mm).2D cutter laser
The fiber laser does not require as much maintenance. The fiber laser doesn't need to be cleaned as often as a CO2 laser cutter machine. The fiber laser does not require any preventive maintenance as long as it has access to clean chiller water and that the filters are regularly replaced.
Any job shop will have to offer a variety of options. This is also true for tube laser operators. It is not uncommon to see parts of different sizes coming from the same tube. It must be capable of loading laser-cut parts up to 2 in. The machine must be able to unload laser-cut parts as small as 2 in. and as long at 15 ft. one after another. It must also be capable of unloading those parts without damaging the rest. This is especially important for soft metals such aluminum.
StarCut Tube L 600 has a choice of three laser options: a fiber laser or a USP. StarCut Tube SL has the smallest footprint of any model on the market.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.’s team of experts can assist you with innovative designs that can improve the aesthetics, increase functionality, and deliver new products faster to market.
A fiber laser cutting machine generates a laser beam using active optical fibers and transmits it to the machine's cutting head via a transport fiber. This extremely hot laser is condensed into a narrow beam and is used to cut through various metal thicknesses.
from 3 months to 3 years
Glass CO2 laser tubes all degrade over time, with lifespans ranging from 3 months to 3 years. With use, the CO2 inside the tube degrades into carbon monoxide and oxygen. Overdriving the tube only accelerates this process and shortens its working life.
