When it comes to processing tubes, pipes, and structural steel, Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. has a solution to fit a range of fabrication needs. Not only do Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. tube lasers offer superior laser-cutting technology, many also integrate additional processing functions to deliver value-added benefits for fabricators.
Many of Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.'s tube-laser-cutting systems incorporate intelligent machine functions, such as intelligent monitoring, setup, cutting, and other functions. These automated functions make it easier to operate and increase machine efficiency. These lasers are versatile and can be used in many industries.
This is the most efficient solution for tubes of any length. Tubes up to O6" (152.4mm)2D cutCO2 and fiber laser
Some things are extremely obvious. The size of the laser "generator," on a fiber laser, is much smaller than that of a traditional CO2 resonanceator. The fiber laser is made up of banks of diodes. Each module can hold 600 to 1,500W. Multiple modules can be spliced together in order to create the final powered-resonator. This module is typically about the same size and shape as a small filing box. Fiber-optic cable channels the light generated and amplifies it. The light is still the same quality and power when it exits the fibre-optic conduit. It is then adjusted for the type and focus of the material to be cut.
Because of the amount of power required to create a CO2 laser, it is less efficient and has a much lower wall plug efficiency when compared to a fiber laser. It follows that the large chillers required for the CO2 lasers need more overall power too. Given the fiber laser resonator’s wall plug efficiency of more than 40 percent, you are not only using less power, but also less of your in-high-demand floor space.
All types, all shapes: This machine can cut carbon, stainless and aluminum in any shape or form.
NIT uses a Coherent Laser Cutting Machine to Vertically Produce Nitinol and Other Metal Components with outstanding precision and edge quality.
Your in-house laser tube cutting doesn't need to be expensive or complicated anymore. Anyone from students to engineers can cut like never before
When fabricators think about fiber laser cutting technology, they might think of high-speed cutting first. That might be true, but when it comes to tube cutting, speed is relative. It’s more about the time it takes to process a tube to meet specifications than actual cutting speed on the tube.
Combination laser system for tube- and sheet metal cutting. Tubes upto O4.72" (120mm).Sheets from 236" x79" (6000mmx2000mm)Fiber Laser
All types, any shapes: This three dimensional cutting machine can cut carbon steel, aluminum, red metals, and stainless steel in any round, square or rectangular shape.
It's 1/3 of a full 20-foot (248") tube making it convenient for you to make 3 pieces of stock. This allows for you to still purchase full tubes lengths without wasting any material.
Of course, the fiber laser doesn’t need as much attention in terms of maintenance. It doesn’t require mirror cleaning and bellows checks that a CO2 laser cutting machine needs. As long as it gets clean chiller water for cooling and the air filters are routinely replaced, the fiber laser itself is free of preventive maintenance.
The CO2 solution is for large diameter tubes, and profiles. Tubes with a diameter of O 14/24" (355mm /610mm).3D laser cutting
Laser tube cutting is a method and technique for cutting tubes, structural shapes, or channels. These items will be cut to the required length during the process. It can also make holes or designs in tubing. It is a precise cutting method.
Laser cutting pipe is the best way to achieve repeatable and precise cutting in applications where the precision of the cut itself is important.
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.
