It's 1/3 of a full 20-foot (248") tube making it convenient for you to make 3 pieces of stock. This allows for you to still purchase full tubes lengths without wasting any material.
Our system solutions have the most flexible selection available for small and large-scale production. They are available in diameters of 10 to 324 mm and lengths of pipe and profiles up to 12.5 m.
A weld-seam is an additional consideration when cutting tube. This material can be roll-formed and welded together. This raises two issues that must be addressed.
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.
The fully-automatic solution for maximum productivity, fast production changes and high quality. Tube O Range min. 0.47" (12 mm) - max. 6" (152.4 mm)3D cutting modeFiber laser
Machine manufacturers have begun using cameras to perform tube inspections. They can reduce the time it takes to inspect quality tubes and also reduce the amount of rotations needed. This allows for both productivity and accuracy to be maintained.
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.
The CO2 resonator requires much more energy and is larger. Electricity is used to combine gases to create the laser beam. Mirrors aid in the light's intensity and prepare it for exiting the resonator. The beam must travel along a path that includes several cooled mirrors to reach the lens after it has exited the resonator. This causes the beam to lose power and quality.
With Lasertube systems, you can create new applications or improve existing ones, entering new industrial sectors and increasing profit margins.
Cameras are being used by machinery manufacturers to inspect tubes. The quality check takes only about half an second, and the rotations required are reduced. This allows the machine's productivity to be maintained as well as its accuracy.
Imagine putting a through hole centered on a tube. It should be centered according to the actual dimension and not just one side of the tube. Bowed tubes will make it more difficult. Tube fabricating is hard work.
Laser technology can be used to create custom shapes and make them cut to length. Raw material is used to produce finished or semi-finished products.
Whether it is the manufacture of specific equipment for gyms, or smaller, multifunctional exercise machines for domestic spaces, tubes are the fundamental building blocks. This is why tube processing technologies, such as bending and laser cutting, are so widely used in this sector.
This is the simplest way to get into tube laser cutting. Tubes up to O 4,72 inches (120 mm).2D cutFiber laser
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.
