Motion Dynamics is a leading manufacturer of neurological sub-assemblies, including steerable catheters and “pull-wire” assemblies, making use of our StarCut Tube machines for precision cutting of key components.

Remember that there is no perfect tube. They can have bows. They can have weld seams that protrude on both the interior and exterior of the tube. This material can be difficult to process consistently and quickly when there are inconsistencies from one product to the next.

The tube's inherent nature means that a laser generator is not required. While flat sheet laser cutting machines are now available with laser generators of up to 12 kW, tube-cutting machines typically require a maximum power of 5 kW. Tubes require you to be aware of the opposite side when cutting. A more powerful laser would cut through the tube's other side. (Officially, the tube laser can be used to process a beam or channel.

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.

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.

Fiber lasers can be used to cut reflective materials and provide precise cutting. They are almost maintenance-free. They can also cut certain thicknesses of metal faster than CO2 lasers. But speed is only relative when cutting tube. Speeding up the process of cutting tube and producing finished products can make time savings.

The CO2 resonance is larger and requires more power as electricity is used to heat a mixture of gases to produce the laser beam. Mirrors increase the intensity of the light and prepare it to leave the resonator. After leaving the resonator the beam must travel through a path made up of several cooled lenses until it reaches its destination. This travel results in a loss in power and quality for the laser beam.

Fiber lasers have wavelengths of 1.06 microns. This wavelength is 10 percent lower than the CO2 laser beam. Fiber lasers have a much shorter wavelength which makes them more able to absorb reflective material. CO2 lasers are more likely reflect off these surfaces. Fiber laser cutting machines can be used to cut brass and copper as well as other reflective materials. The machine's laser beam, as well as the beam path, can be damaged by a CO2 laser beam reflected off the material. This risk is eliminated if the beam path is used with a fiber optic cable.
