Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. is able to manufacture tube lasers for customers, allowing them to eliminate manual processes and maximize the cutting process.
A fiber laser's operation can reveal some subtleties that are not obvious. The fiber laser beam has a much higher power density than the CO2 laser beam due to its smaller beam diameter. This not only allows the fiber laser to cut faster but also allows it to pierce quicker. The fiber is able to cut complex shapes and leave sharp edges because of the smaller beam size. Imagine cutting out a company logo from a tube, with letters spaced at 0.035 inches. A fiber can do that while a CO2 laser cannot.
The TruLaser Tube 5000 fiber achieves record speeds. It takes full advantage of the strengths of solid-state lasers. For the user, this means short processing times and a wide range of possible parts.
Many applications are possible for processed tubes or profiles. There are many applications for processed tubes and profiles, whether in the automotive, furniture, architecture, petrochemical, or commercial vehicle building. Many industries have embraced laser-assisted manufacturing of tubes and profiles. This allows for a virtually unlimited range of components and unmatched design possibilities.

StarCut Tube L 600 can be ordered with either a fiber laser, USP laser, or both. StarCut Tube SL compact model has the smallest footprint on the market.
There is no shortage of variety in any job shop. Parts of various sizes are not uncommon when you use one tube. The machine should be able unload laser-cut pieces as small as 2in. It can also be extended up to 15 feet, one after the other. It must also be in a position to lift the parts and not damage them. This is often a problem for aluminum or other softer metals.
With Lasertube systems, you can create new applications or improve existing ones, entering new industrial sectors and increasing profit margins.
Leaders in advanced laser-cutting solutions and CNC controls.
The shape laser technology allows you to customize and cut-to length in one step. From raw material, finished or semi-finished parts can be produced.
What can you do to compensate? You will traditionally touch your face with a sensor to mark the contact point. The tube is then turned and touched on the other side. This gives the control an indication of how bent the tube is. This is a reliable method that can guarantee the through-holes are working for the application. However, this method reduces the ability to deliver extremely high tolerances for each rotation of the tube.
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.
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.
A fiber laser cutting machine generates a laser beam using active optical fibers and transmits it to the machine's cutting head via a transport fiber. This extremely hot laser is condensed into a narrow beam and is used to cut through various metal thicknesses.
What is the operation of a CO2 Laser? Modern CO2 machines typically generate the laser beam in a sealed glass tube filled with gas, typically carbon dioxide. A high voltage flows through the tube, interacting with the gas particles and increasing their energy, resulting in the production of light.
