StarCut Tube L 600 is available with a fiber laser, a USP laser or both lasers. StarCut Tube SL is a compact model with the smallest footprint in the market.
Some things are quite noticeable. The laser “generator” on a fiber laser is much smaller when compared to a traditional CO2 resonator. In fact, the fiber laser is created by banks of diodes that are put together in a briefcase-size module that can range in power from 600 to 1,500 watts. Multiple modules are spliced together to create the final powered resonator, which is typically the size of a small filing cabinet. The light generated is channeled and amplified through fiber-optic cable. When the light exits the fiber-optic cable, it is the same that is was upon being generated with no loss of power or quality. It is then adjusted and focused for the type of material to be cut.
Fiber lasers are practically maintenance-free and have superior wall plug efficiency to CO2 laser cutters. They can also cut reflective materials and provide precise cutting. They can also be used to cut certain metal thicknesses faster than CO2 machines. Speed is relative when it involves cutting tube. It is possible to reduce the time required for tube processing and produce finished parts faster.
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.
Fiber lasers cut in thin material with fast speeds. They also require little maintenance and are low in power consumption. This laser cutting technology's special properties allow applications in steel and stainless steel as well aluminum and non-ferrous metallics like copper or brass.

This is the simplest way to get into tube laser cutting. Tubes up to O 4,72 inches (120 mm).2D cutFiber laser
These laser-generating machines can produce up to 12 kW of power. The power of a laser tube cutter machine is typically 5 kW. This is because it cuts through the tube on the opposite side simultaneously.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.’s tube laser manufacturing capabilities give our customers the ability to replace manual processes and optimize the cutting process.
The CO2 Resonator is more powerful and uses more energy. This is because electricity is used to mix gases to make the laser beam. Mirrors assist the light in increasing its intensity, which prepares it to exit the resonance. Once the beam has left the resonator it must travel through several cooled reflections before reaching the lens. This is what causes the laser beam to lose its power and quality.
The worthwhile laser tube cutting machine: the TruLaser Tube 3000 fiber is economical even when it is not being fully utilized. Thanks to its reliability and easy of operation, it is perfect for first-time users or as a supplementary machine.
Fiber lasers are 10 percent shorter than CO2 laser beams in wavelength. Because of its shorter wavelength, fiber lasers produce a beam that is easier to absorb by reflective materials. A CO2 laser's wavelength is less likely to reflect off these surfaces. This allows fiber laser cutting machines to cut brass, bronze, and other reflective material. A CO2 laser beam that reflects on the material can damage not only its cutting lens, but the entire beam path. This risk can be eliminated by using fiber-optic cables to guide the beam.
How can you compensate? Traditionally, you would touch the contact points by coming down. Next, rotate the tube and touch the opposite side. This will give the control an indication about how bent the tube may be. This can be used to ensure that through-holes fit the application. Be aware that this reduces your ability to deliver very precise tolerances every time the tube rotates.
