The weld seam is another consideration when tube cutting. This material is roll-formed, then welded together. Two points are usually required to be addressed.
Tubes and profiles are used everywhere – from mechanical engineering and system construction all the way to the furniture industry. Lasers have opened up new design possibilities, so more and more designers are taking advantage of the benefits of laser-cut tubes and profiles thereby considerably increasing demand. Discover all-round solutions for the world of laser tube cutting and find out more about the TruLaser Tube machines.
Traditional tube features can be time-consuming. FabLight makes it easy for you to get exactly you want and how you designed it - in minutes
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.
Laser systems for electronics manufacturing are fast and high-precision and can be used to cut, mark, weld, mark, or ablate metals and other materials.
The high cutting speed of CO2 lasers is what makes them stand out. Their main application area is the medium-to-high range of material thicknesses. The laser beam cuts with high precision and is free from burrs. This allows the parts to be processed further without needing to be reworked.
A second consideration is the fiber laser’s compact modules. They allow for redundancy. The resonator can still shut down when one module is having a problem. The fiber laser is redundant so that other modules can temporarily produce more power to support the down module while repairs are made. These can also be done in field. The fiber resonator may also continue to produce lower power until it can be repaired. The entire CO2 resonator can go down if it has an issue.
Monaco high-power Femtosecond Lasers offer exceptional edge quality in micromachining, and improves in scientific applications such three-photon Microscopy.
Laser cutting technology with shape can allow for complete customization. The raw material can be used to create finished or semifinished parts.
Every need has its own cutting technology. The materials to be processed, as well as the desired level of productivity and cutting quality, allow users to choose between CO2 and fiber laser cutting systems.
Leading manufacturer of laser-cutting solutions, including CNC controls and automation systems.
Fabricators might first think of high-speed laser cutting when they think about fiber laser cutting technology. While this might be true in some cases, it is not the case when it comes tube cutting. It is more about the time required to process a tube so it meets specifications than the actual cutting speed.
Some things are extremely obvious. The size of the laser "generator," on a fiber laser, is much smaller than that of a traditional CO2 resonanceator. The fiber laser is made up of banks of diodes. Each module can hold 600 to 1,500W. Multiple modules can be spliced together in order to create the final powered-resonator. This module is typically about the same size and shape as a small filing box. Fiber-optic cable channels the light generated and amplifies it. The light is still the same quality and power when it exits the fibre-optic conduit. It is then adjusted for the type and focus of the material to be cut.
Laser cutting pipe is the best way to achieve repeatable and precise cutting in applications where the precision of the cut itself is important.
Maximum material cutting thicknesses by 1000W fiber laser cutting machine: Carbon steel has a maximum thickness of 10mm; stainless steel has a maximum thickness of 5mm; aluminum plate has a maximum thickness of 3mm; and copper plate has a maximum thickness of 3mm.
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.
