Let's see below the advantages of using an Automatic Tube and Section Bar Storage System with a Lasertube Cutting System.
A laser tube cutting machine doesn't come with any standard material towers. Bundle loading is the best option for handling tube material. It feeds one tube at a given time from the bundle into a tube laser using a singularizing process. This type cannot be used with open profiles (e.g. channels and angles), because they interlock inside the bundles and don’t move freely. Step loaders, which are used for open profile profiles, sequence one section at time into the machine while maintaining the correct orientation.

Shape laser technology allows for a complete customization and cut-to-length capabilities in just one step. Finished or semi-finished parts are produced from raw material.
Learn how the Coherent StarCut Tube, StarFiber laser-powered cutting tools helped NPX Medical achieve a competitive edge when it comes to stent manufacturing.
Coherent StarCut Tube Hybrid version gives you the most flexibility in cutting different medical devices. This is a complete turnkey laser machine that incorporates two lasers inside a compact housing.
The very nature of a tube prevents the need for a machine with a very high-powered laser. Whereas flat sheet laser cutting machines now are available with laser generators as powerful as 12 kW, tube laser cutting machines usually only require a maximum of 5 kW of power. With a tube, you always have to think about the opposite side of the tube you are cutting. A more powerful laser simply would blow through the other side of the tube during cutting. (Of course, if you are processing a beam or a channel on the tube laser you don’t have to worry about another side.)
Secondary operations can be eliminated: A tube laser can easily cut a piece of material to the desired length, add holes or other cutout designs in one step. This eliminates the need for manual material removal. This allows you to maintain tight tolerances for more complicated fabrications. You can make parts from one continuous piece. This allows you to ensure they fit in one direction and is easy to assemble. Tube laser aluminum, carbon and stainless steel can all be tubed.
Find the exact solution for your laser fabrication requirements while maintaining process quality and efficiency to both metal and other materials.
A laser cutting machine that cuts sheet metal can change out a sheet in seconds. The same can be done on a laser tube cutting machine, but it’s a whole different story as to how it’s done.
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.
