Lasertube makes it easy to customize parts according to the requirements of your customers.
Imagine putting a through hole centered on a tube. It should be centered according to the actual dimension and not just one side of the tube. Bowed tubes will make it more difficult. Tube fabricating is hard work.
Some things are obvious. A fiber laser has a smaller laser "generator" than a CO2-resonator. Actually, the fiber laser is made by banks of diodes which are combined in a small module. These modules can have a power range from 600 to 1,500 W. To create the final powered resonance, multiple modules are spliced together. This is usually the same size as a small filing cupboard. The fiber-optic cables channel the light and amplify it. Fiber-optic cables transmit the same light as when they were generated, with no loss of power and quality. The fiber-optic cable is then adjusted and focused to cut the appropriate material.
Monaco high power femtosecond lasers provide excellent edge quality for micromachining. They also offer improvements in scientific application like three-photon microscopicscopy.
Their high cutting efficiency is what distinguishes CO2 lasers. Their main area of use is in the medium to large range of materialthicknesses. Laser beam cutting edges excel in throughburr-free and low scoring. This means that cut parts can be further processed without the need to rework.
There are no standard material towers with a laser tube cutting machine. Bundle loaders, the most efficient of the tube material handling options, feed one tube at a time from the bundle into the tube laser via a singularizing system. This type of feeding mechanism doesn’t work with open profiles, such as angles or channels, because they interlock while in a bundle and don’t come free easily. For open profiles, step loaders are used, which sequence a section one at a time into the machine while keeping the correct orientation of that section.
You will be able to see the fiber laser in action for a better understanding of some things. A fiber laser has a higher power density than a CO2 beam because its beam diameter is usually one-third of that of a CO2 beam. This allows the fiber to cut faster and pierce more quickly. The fiber can also cut intricate shapes and leave sharp edges thanks to the smaller beam size. A fiber laser can cut a logo for a company out of a tube with a spacing of 0.035 inches between letters.

Laser cutting pipe is the best way to achieve repeatable and precise cutting in applications where the precision of the cut itself is important.
What is the operation of a CO2 Laser? 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.
CO2 laser cutters are the most commonly used types of laser cutters because they are low power, relatively inexpensive, efficient, and can cut through and raster a wide range of materials.
