StarFiber Series are compact fiber lasers that include optional focusing heads. These can be used for laser cutting and welding, or for laser cutting. SmartWeldTM technology is available for fine welds.
Whether it is the manufacture of specific equipment for gyms, or smaller, multifunctional exercise machines for domestic spaces, tubes are the fundamental building blocks. This is why tube processing technologies, such as bending and laser cutting, are so widely used in this sector.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. is able to meet all your fabrication needs when it comes to processing tubes, steel pipes, and structural steel. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. tube Lasers not only offer superior laser-cutting technologies, but also include additional processing functions that can provide added benefits for fabricators.
Perhaps you have noticed that we haven’t yet discussed cutting speed. Although it is possible to cut 500 inches per minute with a tube, this is not always feasible. Laser tube cutting should not be about how long it takes for a tube to be loaded, indexed so that it is in the right place for cutting, pierce it and then unload it. Laser tube cutting machines are more concerned with part-processing times than cutting speed.
This is the simplest way to get into tube laser cutting. Tubes up to O 4,72 inches (120 mm).2D cutFiber laser
It's a third of a full 20-foot (240") tube, making it convenient to create three pieces of stock. This allows you to still purchase full tube lengths without wasting any material
Fiber lasers require little maintenance, are more efficient than traditional CO2 laser cutting machines and can cut reflective materials. They are also faster than CO2 machines for certain metal thicknesses. When it comes to cutting tubes, speed is not necessarily a good thing. You can save time by speeding up the tube processing and producing finished parts.
Lasertube allows you to make suggestions for improvements to your customers' parts design. The extensive library of connections can be used for assembly without the use of screws or welding.
Eliminate secondary operations: A tube laser can cut a piece to length and add holes and other cutout designs in a single step, eliminating the need for secondary actions and manual material removal. You gain the ability to hold tight tolerances on more complex fabrications. Parts can be produced from one continuous piece of raw material to ensure that they only fit one way and are easily assembled. We can tube laser aluminum, stainless steel and carbon.
Leaders in the manufacturing of advanced laser cutting solutions.
Laser tube cutting at home doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. Students and engineers alike can cut like never seen before
Be aware that there is no perfect tub. They may have bows. You may find weld seams on both the outside and the inside of the tube. When there are inconsistencies between product runs, it can be a challenge to process the material efficiently and consistently.
Another thing to consider is the modular design of the fiber laser. These modules are small enough to be carried in a briefcase and allow for redundancy. The resonator does not completely shut off if one module fails. The fiber laser acts redundantly in that it can produce more power temporarily in order to support the damaged module until repairs can take place. (This can, by the way can be done on the field). Other times, the fiber-resonator can continue producing lower power until repairs can take place. A CO2 resonator issue can lead to the complete resonator being down.
For large diameter tubes or profiles, CO2 is the best choice. Tubes up O 14/24" (355 mm/ 610mm) 3D cutting modeCO2 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.
