StarCut Tube Lab and Production Area - Take a look inside to find out more about our fully-automated, multiaxis CNC machines. These machines can cut tubes and flat material, as well medical devices such stents or hypotubes, PTCA, TAVR, and other devices.
Fitness equipment must be built with the highest standards of design, durability, usability, efficiency, and compactness.
Some things can be quite obvious. The fiber laser "generator", as it is called, is smaller than traditional CO2 resonators. The fiber laser is actually created by banks and modules of diodes. They can be assembled into a compact module with a power range of 600 to 1,500 watts. A number of modules are combined to make the final powered receiver, which is often the size of small filing cabinets. The light is amplified and channeled through fiber-optic cabling. The fiber-optic cable transmits the light exactly as it was before. This ensures that there is no loss of quality or power. Then, it is adjusted and focused according to the material being cut.
Laser generating technology is now available for sheet laser cutting machines that can deliver up to 12 kW power. Laser tube cutting machines typically have a maximum power output of 5 kW, as any additional power would also cut through the opposite end of the tube.
Metal fabricators are well-versed in the basics of fiber laser cutting technology for flat sheet processing. But what about tube cutting? It's quite a lot.
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.
Coherent StarCut Tube "hybrid", version has the greatest flexibility for cutting various medical devices in metals or other plastics from tubes or flat stock. This laser machine is a turnkey solution that combines two lasers in one compact housing.
This is the most efficient solution for tubes of any length. Tubes up to O6" (152.4mm)2D cutCO2 and fiber laser
Take a glimpse into our StarCut Tube lab and production area and find out more about these fully-automated, multi-axis CNC machines for tubes and flat materials, including medical devices such as catheter shafts, stents, hypotubes, PTCA devices, TAVR, etc.
With Lasertube systems, you can create new applications or improve existing ones, entering new industrial sectors and increasing profit margins.
Monaco high-power femtosecond lasers provide superior edge quality in micromachining as well as improvements in scientific applications, such as three-photon microscopescopy.
Even for XXL tubing, it is built for maximum productivity. This machine has a solid-state laser that can be used in a variety of ways to produce tubes and profiles from varying materials and wall thicknesses.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.'s team of experts works with you to design a program specific to your needs. We'll look at how your part is currently being produced, assess its application or end use, and work with you to identify and deliver on your specific requirements.
Fiber lasers don't require as much maintenance. It does not require the same attention as a CO2 laser-cutting machine in terms of mirror cleaning and bellows inspections. It doesn't require any maintenance, as long it has clean chiller water to cool off and its air filters are regularly changed.
Pipe and tubing Cutting Procedures:
Rotate the pipe cutter around. Tighten the cutter slightly and rotate it around the pipe several times. Repeat until the pipe is severed by the blade. Steel pipe can be cut with a hacksaw, reciprocating saw, or steel-pipe tubing cutter.
CO2 laser cutters are the most commonly used types of laser cutters because they are low power, relatively inexpensive, efficient, and can cut through and raster a wide range of materials.
Laser tube cutting is a method and technique for cutting tubes, structural shapes, or channels. These items will be cut to the required length during the process. It can also make holes or designs in tubing. It is a precise cutting method. It can also be used on a variety of materials in a variety of shapes and sizes.
