A tube's very nature prevents the use of high-powered lasers. Flat sheet laser cutting machines can now be equipped with laser generators that are as powerful as 12kW. Tube laser cutting machines, however, only require 5kW. You must always consider the side you are cutting when you work with a tube. A stronger laser will simply cut through the tube from the opposite end. (Officially, you don't have any need to worry if you are cutting a beam or channel with the tube laser.
Many of Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.'s tube-laser-cutting systems incorporate intelligent machine functions, such as intelligent monitoring, setup, cutting, and other functions. These automated functions make it easier to operate and increase machine efficiency. These lasers are versatile and can be used in many industries.
