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.
Cambus Medical uses Coherent StarCut Tube to cut tubes and Select Laser Welders in order to build business success.

Laser cutting machines can cut sheets of metal in seconds. It's possible to do the exact same thing with a laser tube-cutting machine, but that's another story.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. has a team of experts that will work with you to develop a program tailored to your requirements. We'll examine how your part is being made, evaluate its use or application, then work with your to determine and fulfill your requirements.
A few machinery manufacturers now use cameras to verify tubes. The cameras reduce the quality inspection to less than a second, as well as the number of required rotations. This allows the machine both to remain productive and accurate.
A CO2 laser is more efficient than a fiber one because it requires less power to create. This means that large chillers for CO2 lasers will require more overall power. With a wall plug efficiency greater than 40%, the fiber laser resonance uses less power and takes up less space.
Monaco high-power femtosecond lasers provide superior edge quality in micromachining as well as improvements in scientific applications, such as three-photon microscopescopy.
The application of processed tubes and profiles is manifold. Whether in the automotive industry, furniture design, architecture, petrochemical industry or commercial vehicle construction. In many industries, the laser-assisted processing of tubes and profiles offers an almost unlimited manufacturing spectrum for components and unique design possibilities.
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.
The SL has a rock-solid platform for cutting (the SL uses a base made of mineral casts). These machines provide the highest precision with contour cutting accuracy better than +/-5 um. The latest Monaco USP laser, or the fiber laser, allows for precise cutting of any type of metal or polymer.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.’s tube laser manufacturing capabilities give our customers the ability to replace manual processes and optimize the cutting process.
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.
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.
from 3 months to 3 years
Glass CO2 laser tubes all degrade over time, with lifespans ranging from 3 months to 3 years. With use, the CO2 inside the tube degrades into carbon monoxide and oxygen. Overdriving the tube only accelerates this process and shortens its working life.
