Tubes are the essential building blocks whether you're making equipment for gyms or for smaller, multifunctional exercise devices for your home. This is why so many technologies for tube processing, like bending and laser-cutting, are widely used within this sector.
The application of processed tubes and profiles is manifold. Whether in the automotive industry, furniture design, architecture, petrochemical industry or commercial vehicle construction. In many industries, the laser-assisted processing of tubes and profiles offers an almost unlimited manufacturing spectrum for components and unique design possibilities.
Cambus Medical's Coherent StarCut Tube laser-powered tub cutting machine and Select Laser Welders are used to achieve business success.
Metal fabricators know a lot about what flat sheet processing has involved with fiber laser cutting technology. But, what does the fiber laser do for tube cutting? A lot actually.
Monaco high-power, femtosecond-lasers offer superior edge quality for micromachining and improved scientific applications such as three-photon microscopy.
The TruLaser Tube 5000 fiber can achieve record speeds. It fully exploits the strengths of solid state lasers. This allows for faster processing times and the possibility of assembling many parts.
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.
Coherent StarCut Tube 'hybrid' version provides the highest flexibility for cutting medical devices made of metals or plastics. This machine integrates two lasers within a compact housing.
This laser fabrication solution will meet all your needs. It also delivers process quality, efficiency, and precision to both metal- and non-metal fabrication.
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.
StarFeed is an automated unloader/loader for StarCut Tube laser cutters. It is available in two sizes: S and L. These combination options allow fully automated dry and wet cutting of tubes up to 20 mm diameter. StarFeed L can store up to 48 tubes, and it even supports the processing of oval tubes. Its sensor-controlled gripping unit avoids damage. This results in a significant increase in productivity.
The tube's inherent nature means that a laser generator is not required. While flat sheet laser cutting machines are now available with laser generators of up to 12 kW, tube-cutting machines typically require a maximum power of 5 kW. Tubes require you to be aware of the opposite side when cutting. A more powerful laser would cut through the tube's other side. (Officially, the tube laser can be used to process a beam or channel.
Tubes, profiles and systems are everywhere. They're used for everything from mechanical engineering to system construction to furniture making. With the new possibilities that lasers present, designers are increasingly taking advantage of laser-cut tubes or profiles. This has led to a substantial increase in demand. TruLaser Tube machines are a complete solution for laser tube cutting.
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.
