Tube Laser Cutting Systems Number Plate
StarFeed can be used as an automated loader/unloader to the StarCut Tube laser cutting machine. It comes in two sizes, S and L. The StarFeed allows you to fully automate dry and wet cutting for tubes of any diameter from 1-20mm. StarFeed L can store 48 tubes and allows processing of oval tubing. Its sensor-controlled gripping unit avoids damage. The result is a substantial increase in productivity.
How do you compensate for that? Traditionally, you are going to come down and touch the face with a sensor that marks the contact point. The tube is then rotated, and the opposite side of the tube is touched. That gives the control an idea of just how bowed the tube is. This method is accurate and can ensure those through-holes work out for the application. But keep in mind that each time a rotation of the tube occurs, the ability to deliver very high tolerances is reduced.
