StarFiber Series are compact fiber lasers that include optional focusing heads. These can be used for laser cutting and welding, or for laser cutting. SmartWeldTM technology is available for fine welds.

Find the exact solution for your laser fabrication requirements while maintaining process quality and efficiency to both metal and other materials.

What can you do to compensate? You will traditionally touch your face with a sensor to mark the contact point. The tube is then turned and touched on the other side. This gives the control an indication of how bent the tube is. This is a reliable method that can guarantee the through-holes are working for the application. However, this method reduces the ability to deliver extremely high tolerances for each rotation of the tube.

In sheet laser cutting, the subject of material loading/unloading automation is well-established. This can be achieved with many different solutions. Tube laser cutting systems that are equipped with vertical storage for tubes or section bars can handle bars automatically, allowing for unmanned production changes. They have been around for only a few years.

Tube cutting also requires a weld seam. This material is rolled-formed and then welded together. These two points should be considered:

The laser cutting system StarCut Tube SL provides highest accuracy, superior reliability, and high performance when cutting complex medical devices such as stents, aortic valve replacements, or hypotubes.

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.

Welder

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.

Fiber lasers don't require as much maintenance. It does not require the same attention as a CO2 laser-cutting machine in terms of mirror cleaning and bellows inspections. It doesn't require any maintenance, as long it has clean chiller water to cool off and its air filters are regularly changed.

Another consideration in tube cutting is the weld seam. This material is roll-formed and welded together. This brings up two points that typically must be addressed:

Micrometric Ltd uses its versatile Coherent StarCut tubes laser cutting machine in order to produce speedy and precise medical and aerospace products.

NIT uses the Coherent laser to create vertical components of nitinol with extraordinary precision and edge strength.

With Lasertube systems, you can create new applications or improve existing ones, entering new industrial sectors and increasing profit margins.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

Pipe and tubing Cutting Procedures:

Rotate the pipe cutter around. Tighten the cutter slightly and rotate it around the pipe several times. Repeat until the pipe is severed by the blade. Steel pipe can be cut with a hacksaw, reciprocating saw, or steel-pipe tubing cutter.
