How thick can a fiber laser cut

The laser generating technology that is used to produce sheet laser cutting machines can be upgraded to deliver as much as 12 kW. A laser tube cutter typically produces 5 kW of power, because more power would simultaneously cut through both ends of the tube.

The wavelength of fiber lasers is 1.06 microns. This is 10% less than the wavelength of a CO2 laser beam. The fiber laser emits a beam with a shorter wavelength that is more easily absorbed and reflected by reflective materials than a CO2 laser. Fiber laser cutting machines are able to cut brass, copper and other reflective materials. Be aware that the CO2 laser beam can damage not only the machine's lens but also the entire beam path. This risk is eliminated by using a fiber-optic cables for the beam path.

Most metal fabricators are familiar with the capabilities of fiber laser technology to cut flat sheets. But what can it do for tube-cutting? A lot, actually.

These machines are rock-solid and have a mineral-cast base. They offer precision contour cutting accuracy of +/- 5um. You can choose from a fiber laser or the most recent Monaco USP laser for fine cutting any metal or polymer.

Due to the power required to make a CO2 laser it is much less efficient than a fiber laser and has a lower wall plug efficiency. The large chillers needed to create CO2 lasers require more power overall. The fiber laser resonator has a wall plug efficiency of over 40 percent so you not only use less power but also take up less of your high-demand floor space.

The FABRICATOR is North America's leading magazine for the metal forming and fabricating industry. The magazine delivers the news, technical articles, and case histories that enable fabricators to do their jobs more efficiently. The FABRICATOR has served the industry since 1970.

Fiber lasers are practically maintenance-free and have superior wall plug efficiency to CO2 laser cutters. They can also cut reflective materials and provide precise cutting. They can also be used to cut certain metal thicknesses faster than CO2 machines. Speed is relative when it involves cutting tube. It is possible to reduce the time required for tube processing and produce finished parts faster.

With a laser tube-cutting machine, there are no standard towers. Bundle loads are the most efficient method for handling tubes. These loaders feed one tube per bundle into the tube cutter via a singularizing mechanism. This feeding method is not compatible with open profiles such as angles or channels. Because they interlock within a bundle, and don't allow for easy release, this type of feeding doesn't work. Step loaders are employed for open profiles. These machines sequence one section at a time and maintain the correct orientation.
