No need to coordinate multiple orders and vendors. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. can handle everything from material procurement to past delivery.
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.
Processing tubes and profiles can be used in many different ways. You can use them in many industries, including the automotive industry, furniture design and architecture, as well as commercial vehicle construction. Laser-assisted processing of profiles and tubes offers many options for unique design and a manufacturing range that is almost limitless.
PowerLine C is a CO2 laser-based system for precision drilling, cutting and scribing of many non-metals including glass and organic materials.
Fiber lasers cut in thin material with fast speeds. They also require little maintenance and are low in power consumption. This laser cutting technology's special properties allow applications in steel and stainless steel as well aluminum and non-ferrous metallics like copper or brass.
Learn how the Coherent StarCut Tube was used to cut stents and how StarFiber, a laser-powered cutting machine, helped NPX Medical.
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.
Monaco high-power Femtosecond Lasers offer exceptional edge quality in micromachining, and improves in scientific applications such three-photon Microscopy.
Motion Dynamics, a world-class manufacturer of neurological parts, includes steerable catheters or "pullwire" assemblies. Motion Dynamics also makes use of StarCut Tubes for precision cutting key components.
The most important criteria for the construction of fitness equipment are design, durability, usability, and compactness.
For loading tube stock up 80" or 6'8", we offer a tube extension. Please note that the maximum part size for this extension is 52".
A fiber laser's operation can reveal some subtleties that are not obvious. The fiber laser beam has a much higher power density than the CO2 laser beam due to its smaller beam diameter. This not only allows the fiber laser to cut faster but also allows it to pierce quicker. The fiber is able to cut complex shapes and leave sharp edges because of the smaller beam size. Imagine cutting out a company logo from a tube, with letters spaced at 0.035 inches. A fiber can do that while a CO2 laser cannot.
Keep in mind that there is no such thing as a perfect tube. They have bows. Weld seams can protrude not only on the exterior but also the interior of the tube. It’s a real challenge to process this material consistently and rapidly when such inconsistencies exist from one product run to another.
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.
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.
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.
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.
