Due to the high power needed to create a CO2 Laser, it is less efficient than a fiber-laser. Also, the large chillers that are required to make CO2 lasers work require more power. You are using less power due to the fiber laser's wall plug efficiency exceeding 40 percent. This means that you also use less of your floor space in high-demand areas.
Lasertube systems can be used to develop new applications and improve existing ones. This allows you to enter new industrial sectors, increasing profits, and allowing for new opportunities.
The best tube laser cutting solution. Tubes upto O9.45" (220 mm)3D-cutting modeCO2 (or fiber laser)
All types, all shapes: This three-dimensional cutting machine will cut carbon, stainless, aluminum and red metals; in round, square, rectangular and irregular shapes.
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.
High-speed cutting is often the first thing fabricators associate with fiber laser cutting technology. Although this may be true for tube cutting, speed is a relative term. It is not about cutting speed, but the time it takes for a tube to be processed to meet its specifications.
StarFiber Series combine compact fiber lasers with optional focusing heads for laser welding or cutting, including SmartWeld™ technology for fine and wide welds.
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.
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.
Maximum material cutting thicknesses by 1000W fiber laser cutting machine: Carbon steel has a maximum thickness of 10mm; stainless steel has a maximum thickness of 5mm; aluminum plate has a maximum thickness of 3mm; and copper plate has a maximum thickness of 3mm.
A fiber laser cutting machine generates a laser beam using active optical fibers and transmits it to the machine's cutting head via a transport fiber. This extremely hot laser is condensed into a narrow beam and is used to cut through various metal thicknesses.
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.
