Tube Laser Cutting Systems X-axis
Another consideration is the fiber laser’s briefcase-sized modules—they allow for redundancy. If one module has a problem, the resonator doesn’t shut down completely. The fiber laser is redundant in a way that the other modules can produce more power temporarily to support the down module until repairs can be completed—which, by the way, can be done in the field. Other times the fiber resonator can continue producing reduced power until repairs can be made. Unfortunately, if a CO2 resonator has an issue, the entire resonator is down, not just in a reduced-power mode.
The StarFeed is an automated loader/unloader for the StarCut Tube laser cutting machine and is available in sizes S and L. This combination allows fully automated dry or wet cutting of tubes from 1-20 mm diameter. The StarFeed L stores up to 48 tubes and even allows the processing of oval tubes. Its sensor-controlled gripping unit avoids damage. The end result is a big increase in productivity.
You don't need to coordinate multiple orders with different vendors. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. is able to handle all aspects of material procurement and delivery.
Traditional tube features can be tedious. FabLight makes getting exactly what you want and how it was designed easy. It takes just minutes.
Reduce time and the number of parts required. Tube frames and metal structures can be assembled faster and with more precision. In one programming step, you can complete your part on one machine and one system.
Your in-house laser tube cutting doesn't need to be expensive or complicated anymore. Anyone from students to engineers can cut like never before
Our system solutions are flexible enough to produce small and large batches with diameters between 10 and 324 millimeters.
Each application requires a different cutting technology. Depending on the type of material and desired productivity and cutting quality, users can choose from CO2 or fiber laser systems.
The fiber laser requires less maintenance than a CO2 laser. The fiber laser does not need the mirror cleaning or bellows checking that a CO2 cutting machine requires. The fiber laser doesn't need any preventive maintenance, provided it receives clean chiller and cooling water.
Parts are held with automatic tabbing (done in FabCreator), and a set of jaws on the drive chuck and the idler chuck
