Some machinery manufacturers use cameras to check tubes. This is done in an effort to close the time gap. Cameras reduce the time required to check quality and reduce the number rotations. This ensures that the machine can retain its productivity and accuracy.
Many thought fiber lasers could only be used for thin materials at one time. Due to its longer wavelength, CO2 produced enough kerf for the cutting of thick materials so that there was enough room for material removal. However, the fiber laser wasn't able to produce the same kerf in thicker materials. The problem was solved in recent years by collimating technology which allows for a wider beam of fiber laser-generated light that can be used to create materials separation. Because the beam width can be switched, the machine can use a narrower beam to process thin material. This makes it possible for the machine to process different-sized materials faster on the same fiber laser cutter machine.
