Tube Laser Cutting And Advantages – Carlos
What is Tube Laser Cutting?
Tube lasers are, in principle, regular lasers. So, this means that they also use laser beams for cutting. But, both CO2 and fibre lasers are available, so the use of gases depends on the exact method.
Tube laser allows you to cut different tubes and profiles of steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper or brass with great flexibility. And, the sections can be round, square, oval, rectangular.
Although regular laser cutting machines can fit with some adjusted equipment to cut metal tubes, they are not comparable to tube lasers. The quality, precision and productivity that laser tube cutters, is only achievable using designated equipment.
Selection of profiles: The machines are suitable for a wide range of tubes – square, rectangular and round. But they can perform the process on all kinds of profiles that fit the maximum and minimum outside dimension criteria are acceptable.
All materials: Mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium, etc. They are all welcome. Although reflective materials have been more problematic for CO2 laser cutting, processing them with fibre lasers is much easier.
One operation: Using this process, you can do everything in one go – cut to length and make the necessary cutouts. No need for secondary operations or manual material removal.
Great precision: Our tube laser cutting machines provide extremely precise and clean cuts with a small cutting kerf. This eliminates the need for extra work on the tubes.
Lower cost: Firstly, it is the preferred method for more complex jobs. So, the ability to produce everything in one go without any extra work keeps the costs down. The cutting speed of lasers makes processing quick, resulting in faster turnaround times.
Aesthetical solutions: So, the great flexibility allows developing innovative designs. Improving the looks and functionality of new products raises your value proposition
