What is a tube laser

Tube Lasers Cutting Systems Knoxville Tn

Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. is a team made up of specialists who will work with clients to create a program to meet their needs. We'll assess the production process of your part and determine its potential application. Then we will work with you on identifying and delivering your exact requirements.

Machine manufacturers have begun using cameras to perform tube inspections. They can reduce the time it takes to inspect quality tubes and also reduce the amount of rotations needed. This allows for both productivity and accuracy to be maintained.

Monaco high-power femtosecond lasers deliver superior edge quality in micromachining and improvements in scientific applications like three-photon microscopy.

The CO2 resonator is much larger and requires more energy, as electricity is introduced to a combination of gases to produce the laser beam. Mirrors help the light gain in intensity, preparing it to exit the resonator. After exiting the resonator, the beam must travel through a path comprising several cooled mirrors until it reaches the lens. This travel causes a loss of power and quality in the laser beam.

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.

Let's take a look at the benefits of an automated tube and section bar storage with a Lasertube cutter system.

Tube Laser Cutting Systems Operator

The laser cutting system StarCut Tube SL provides highest accuracy, superior reliability, and high performance when cutting complex medical devices such as stents, aortic valve replacements, or hypotubes.

A laser tube cutter machine does not come with standard material towers. Bundle loaders are the most efficient option for tube material handling. They feed one tube from each bundle to the tube laser through a singularizing device. This type of feeding mechanism is not suitable for open profiles such as channels or angles, since they are interlocked while inside a bundle and can't be released easily. Step loaders are used for open profiles. They sequence each section into the machine one at a while maintaining the correct orientation.

Parts can be held with automatic tabbering (in FabCreator), as well as a set of jaws at the drive chuck, and the idler-chuck.

We offer a tube extender for loading tube stock of up to 80" (6'8") You can still use the tube extension to load stock up to 80" or 6'8".

Fiber Lasers Tubes

StarFiber Series combines compact fiber lasers with optional cutting heads or focusing heads for laser welding and cutting. SmartWeld(tm), which allows for fine and broad welds, is also available.

Any job shop will have to offer a variety of options. This is also true for tube laser operators. It is not uncommon to see parts of different sizes coming from the same tube. It must be capable of loading laser-cut parts up to 2 in. The machine must be able to unload laser-cut parts as small as 2 in. and as long at 15 ft. one after another. It must also be capable of unloading those parts without damaging the rest. This is especially important for soft metals such aluminum.
