The simplest way to enter the tube laser cutting world. Tubes up to Ø 4,72" (120 mm)2D cutFiber laser
CO2 lasers are characterized by their high cutting quality.Their primary area of application lies in the medium to high range of materialthicknesses. The cutting edges achieved with the laser beam excel throughburr-free cutting and low scoring. This means that the cut parts can beprocessed further without reworking.
High cutting performance is a hallmark of CO2 lasers. They are most useful in medium-to-high material thicknesses. Laser beam cutting edges are low-scoring and throughburr-free. The laser beam can also be used to cut additional parts without the need for rework.

Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. has the capability to produce tube lasers that can be used to replace manual processes or optimize the cutting process.
Our system solutions provide the best selection of options for flexible production of small and large quantities.
You can eliminate secondary operations. A tube laser is able to cut a piece and add holes, or any other cutout design in one step. The ability to control tolerances on more complicated fabrications is gained. To ensure parts fit together in a single way, you can use one continuous piece. We can tube laser-cut aluminum, stainless and carbon.

With a laser tube-cutting machine, there are no standard towers. Bundle loads are the most efficient method for handling tubes. These loaders feed one tube per bundle into the tube cutter via a singularizing mechanism. This feeding method is not compatible with open profiles such as angles or channels. Because they interlock within a bundle, and don't allow for easy release, this type of feeding doesn't work. Step loaders are employed for open profiles. These machines sequence one section at a time and maintain the correct orientation.
The wavelength of fiber lasers is 1.06 microns. This is 10% less than the wavelength of a CO2 laser beam. The fiber laser emits a beam with a shorter wavelength that is more easily absorbed and reflected by reflective materials than a CO2 laser. Fiber laser cutting machines are able to cut brass, copper and other reflective materials. Be aware that the CO2 laser beam can damage not only the machine's lens but also the entire beam path. This risk is eliminated by using a fiber-optic cables for the beam path.
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.
