What can you do with old laser tubes

Tube Lasers Cutting Systems Denver

Find out how the Coherent StarCut Tube (and StarFiber laser powered cutting machines) helped NPX Medical get a competitive edge in stent manufacturing.

It is one third of a 20-foot (20-24") tube. This makes it possible to make three separate stock items. This allows you to purchase full tube lengths while not wasting material.

At one time many thought that fiber lasers could be used only for thin materials. The CO2, with its larger wavelength, created enough kerf during the cutting of thick materials that enough space was allowed for material removal; the fiber laser couldn’t produce the same kerf or results with thicker materials. But that has been addressed in recent years with collimating technology that can produce a wider fiber laser-generated beam that creates materials separation and room for material removal in thick materials. And since the beam width is switchable, the machine can use the narrower beam to process thin materials, which allows for faster processing of different-sized materials on the same fiber laser cutting machine.

Fiber lasers are capable of cutting thin materials with high speeds. Fiber lasers are very efficient and low in power consumption, but require very little maintenance. Laser cutting technology is able to cut steel, stainless and aluminum as well as nonferrous metals such copper and brass.

Motion Dynamics, a world-class manufacturer of neurological parts, includes steerable catheters or "pullwire" assemblies. Motion Dynamics also makes use of StarCut Tubes for precision cutting key components.

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.

Secondary operations are eliminated: A tube Laser can cut a length of piece, add holes and cutout other designs in one operation. It also eliminates the need for additional actions like manual material removal. For more complex fabrications, you can maintain tight tolerances. Parts can easily be manufactured from one continuous raw material. Tube laser aluminum, stainless-steel and carbon can be made.

The subject of material loading and unloading automation is well established in sheet laser cutting with a multitude of solutions and complexity. In contrast, tube laser cutting systems equipped with vertical storage systems, for tubes and section bars, capable of handling bars automatically and allowing for unmanned production changes have only been available for a few years.

Another thing to consider is the modular design of the fiber laser. These modules are small enough to be carried in a briefcase and allow for redundancy. The resonator does not completely shut off if one module fails. The fiber laser acts redundantly in that it can produce more power temporarily in order to support the damaged module until repairs can take place. (This can, by the way can be done on the field). Other times, the fiber-resonator can continue producing lower power until repairs can take place. A CO2 resonator issue can lead to the complete resonator being down.
