ExactCut 430, a laser cutting machine for precision processing of thin and large metals and all alloys, brittle material like sapphire or PCD, is available.
Many believed that fiber lasers were only suitable for thin materials. Because of its longer wavelength, CO2 created enough kerf to allow for material removal. The fiber laser could not produce the same results or kerf with thicker materials. This problem has been solved by collimating technology, which can create a wider fiber laser-generated beam. This allows for materials separation and more room to remove thicker materials. The machine can switch between the beam widths, so it can process thinner materials with the narrower beam. This allows for faster processing of different-sized materials using the same fiber laser cutting machine.
All types, all shapes: This three-dimensional cutting machine will cut carbon, stainless, aluminum and red metals; in round, square, rectangular and irregular shapes.
It is important to remember that traditional ways of checking for twists and bows can take up five or seven seconds, before cutting can begin. Touch sensing can only be used for precision. It can seem that this is all a lot, but it's not the same as working with sheetmetal.

Find the exact solution for your laser fabrication requirements while maintaining process quality and efficiency to both metal and other materials.
You may have noticed we haven’t covered cutting speed. Although you can cut up 500 inches per minute using a tube cutter, it's not always practical. Laser tube cutting involves focusing on the time required to load a tube, index the tube so it's in a good position for cutting and then pierce, cut and unload the part. It is not about cutting speed, but part-processing time when laser tube cutting machines are used.
Their high cutting efficiency is what distinguishes CO2 lasers. Their main area of use is in the medium to large range of materialthicknesses. Laser beam cutting edges excel in throughburr-free and low scoring. This means that cut parts can be further processed without the need to rework.
The fiber laser's small modules, which are compact and easily transportable, allow for redundancy. The resonator won't completely shut down if one module experiences a problem. In order to provide power for the down module, the fiber laser can temporarily produce more power until it is repaired. This can, of course, be done in the field. Sometimes, the fiber resonator will continue to produce reduced power until repairs are made. If a CO2 reactor has an issue, it can cause the whole resonator to go down.
A CO2 laser requires more power to produce than a fiber laser. This makes it less efficient and has lower wall plug efficiency. You will also need to use more power for the large CO2 laser chillers. Because the fiber laser-resonator's wall-plug efficiency is greater than 40 percent, it uses less power as well as less of your in high-demand flooring space.
The ability to choose between 2D and 3D laser cutting technology opensup the possibility of individually customized and precise cutting of parts in avery wide variety: tubes with round, square, and rectangular shapes as well asprofiles with diverse open cross-sections (for example H, L, T, and Ucross-sections). In addition tostraight cutting edges, the 3D technology also enables bevel cuts up to 45degrees. This versatility eliminates the need for costlymilling, drilling, punching, or sawing processes.
High cutting quality is one of the main characteristics of CO2 Lasers. Their primary application is in medium to high material thicknesses. The laser beam's cutting edges offer high throughburr and low scoring. This makes it possible to process the cut parts further without having to rework.
Lasertubes are our 2D- and 3D laser cutting machines for tubes and bars. Available in sizes from 12 mm - 610 mm (.5" - 24") and lengths up to 18m (60")
The laser beam is the most important component of the laser cutter; it determines wavelength and power, and thus the material that it can cut or engrave. Solid-state lasers, fiber lasers, and CO2 lasers are the three main types of lasers used in laser cutting.
