The option to choose between 2D/3D laser cutting technology allows for the possibility of customizing and precise cutting parts in a wide range of shapes. These include tubes with square, rectangular, and round shapes, as well as profiles with varied open cross-sections (e.g. H, L. T, Ucross-sections). 3D technology is capable of cutting straight edges up to 45degrees. This flexibility makes it unnecessary to perform costly milling and drilling, punching, punching, or other sawing operations.

NIT uses a Coherent Laser Cutting Machine to Vertically Produce Nitinol and Other Metal Components with outstanding precision and edge quality.
You should also consider the shortcase-sized modules of the fiber laser. They provide redundancy. The resonator will not shut down completely if one of the modules has a problem. The fiber laser works in redundant mode so that the other modules can provide more power temporarily to sustain the down module's needs until they can be repaired. Field repairs are possible, however. Sometimes the fiber laser can produce less power while repairs are being made. An issue with a CO2 Resonator will cause the entire system to fail.
Many of Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.’s tube laser-cutting system integrate intelligent functions such as monitoring, setting up, and cutting. These automated functions increase machine efficiency and ease-of-use. The wide range of capabilities offered by Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.’s tube and pipeline lasers make these machines suitable for many industries and a variety if applications.
What can you do to compensate? You will traditionally touch your face with a sensor to mark the contact point. The tube is then turned and touched on the other side. This gives the control an indication of how bent the tube is. This is a reliable method that can guarantee the through-holes are working for the application. However, this method reduces the ability to deliver extremely high tolerances for each rotation of the tube.

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.
How can you compensate for this? Traditionally, you will touch your face with a sensor marking the contact point. The tube is then rotated and the opposite end of the tube touched. The control will then be able to see how bent the tube looks. This allows for precise measurements and ensures that the through-holes will work properly. Keep in mind, however, that every rotation of the tube reduces the ability for very high tolerances.

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.
