Why Do You Need a Laser Tube Cutting Machine?

Released on Dec. 24, 2021

The production and consumption of metal pipes are increasing, so the demand for pipe processing is growing. The creation of laser tube cutting machines has given new blood-to-tube processing.

How does it work?

The basis of laser tube cutting is the laser beam. Lasers are differentiated by wavelength. Lasers are often used in communication engineering because of their ability to carry large amounts of information without electromagnetic interference and without signal leakage. When lasers are used for metal cutting, the advantages of their high energy density and narrow beam characteristics are demonstrated.

Metals and other materials can be cut seamlessly using laser tube cutters. Programming the machine allows it to be used for a wide range of custom cutting jobs. Laser tube cutting is designed graphically using computer-aided design software. The cutting can be automated by importing the machine's operating system, maximizing the speed of manufacturing projects. Typically, a database is included in the operating system with key information such as the type of material, thickness, and geometry of the tube.

Benefits of laser tube cutting machines

High accuracy in tube cutting

What really sets laser tube cutters apart is the accuracy of the cut. The use of chuck and advance cutting provides a high degree of centering accuracy and machining precision. Industrial manufacturing applications involving small diameter tubes have been greatly accelerated due to improvements in modern laser cutting machines. Laser tube cutting machines can be adjusted accordingly to these deformations to ensure the accuracy of tube cutting, which is not achieved by many traditional processes.

High tube cutting efficiency

Laser tube cutting machines allow for mass production. All operations can be unified into one unit as a continuous process, significantly reducing logistics time. The standard tube length is 6 meters, which would require very bulky clamping using traditional processing methods. Laser processing makes it very easy to clamp and position tubes several meters in length. This makes batch processing possible.

The advantage of laser-cut pipe is that it can replace several processes such as sawing, drilling, etc. Cutting, perforating, and drawing of various shapes are possible. This minimizes material waste, saves labor costs, and increases efficiency. Make better quality products in less time for customers.

Strong flexibility in cutting pipes

The tube cutting software can seamlessly identify the tube shapes drawn by 3D software. Also supports the automatic generation of some common pipe workpieces. A laser pipe cutting machine can cut any programmed shape on a metal pipe. And the laser can cut perfectly in any direction. The computer programmed design allows for flexible and fast changes. The high flexibility of the laser tube cutter provides powerful support for more and more individual processing. This reduces the number of dies used.
