The weld seam is another consideration in tube cutting. This material is then roll-formed before being welded together. This brings us to two important points that should be addressed.
Fabricators may think first of high speed cutting when thinking about fiber laser technology. It might be true that speed is relative when it involves tube cutting. It's about how long it takes to cut a tube to meet the specifications, not its actual speed.
StarCut Tube SL combines an fs-laser to create complex metal shapes.
The right cutting technology for every requirement. Depending on the materials that are to be processed and the desired cutting quality and level ofproductivity, users have the choice between CO2 laser cuttingsystems and fiber laser cutting systems.
Laser systems are available for electronics manufacturing. They can perform cutting, welding marking, marking, and ablation with high precision.
Tubes, profiles and systems are everywhere. They're used for everything from mechanical engineering to system construction to furniture making. With the new possibilities that lasers present, designers are increasingly taking advantage of laser-cut tubes or profiles. This has led to a substantial increase in demand. TruLaser Tube machines are a complete solution for laser tube cutting.
Tubes and profiles are used everywhere – from mechanical engineering and system construction all the way to the furniture industry. Lasers have opened up new design possibilities, so more and more designers are taking advantage of the benefits of laser-cut tubes and profiles thereby considerably increasing demand. Discover all-round solutions for the world of laser tube cutting and find out more about the TruLaser Tube machines.

You can choose between 2D or 3D laser cutting technology, which allows you to create parts with a very specific shape. This includes tubes of various shapes, such as squares, rectangles, and profiles with different open cross-sections (e.g H, L and Tcross-sections). The 3D technology allows for bevel cuts of up to 45 degrees. This flexibility eliminates the need to do costly milling, drilling, punching or sawing.

Tubes and profiles can be found everywhere, in mechanical engineering and system building as well as the furniture industry. Because lasers offer new design possibilities, more and more designers are taking full advantage of the laser-cut profile and tube benefits. This is a significant increase in demand.

Some things are obvious. A fiber laser has a smaller laser "generator" than a CO2-resonator. Actually, the fiber laser is made by banks of diodes which are combined in a small module. These modules can have a power range from 600 to 1,500 W. To create the final powered resonance, multiple modules are spliced together. This is usually the same size as a small filing cupboard. The fiber-optic cables channel the light and amplify it. Fiber-optic cables transmit the same light as when they were generated, with no loss of power and quality. The fiber-optic cable is then adjusted and focused to cut the appropriate material.
Reduce secondary operations: A tube-laser can cut a piece to size and add holes and other cutouts in one step. It eliminates the need to perform secondary actions or manually remove material. It is possible to keep tight tolerances even on complex fabrications. Parts can be made from one continuous piece. They are easy to put together and fit perfectly. We can also tube laser carbon, stainless steel, and aluminum.
This is the tube laser cutting solution that offers the most versatility. Tubes up to O9.45" (240mm)3D Cutting modeCO2 or Fiber Laser
The laser beam is the most important component of the laser cutter; it determines wavelength and power, and thus the material that it can cut or engrave. Solid-state lasers, fiber lasers, and CO2 lasers are the three main types of lasers used in laser cutting.
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.
