Laser tube cutting
services from Alabama Laser are performed with four CO2
laser systems designed for cutting round, square, rectangular, flat, oval, and
virtually any other type of tubing. Our two BLM Adige LaserTube systems (models LT652 & LT712D) enable
us to cut slots and holes in round tubing with diameters up to 6"
and square tubing with side dimensions up 4.7". These laser systems
allow storage of tube bundles and can automatically load and position tubes with lengths
between 10.5 and 27.5 feet without operator intervention. Smaller tube lengths can be
loaded manually.
|
| The LaserTube's high flexibility allows it to cut almost
any profile either on the end of a tube or along its length. Multiple part features, which
traditionally would have required several conventional machine tools and consecutive
processes, can now be carried out automatically on this single machine, using one tool in
a single cycle.
These capabilities along with increased speeds and no tooling
costs now make laser precision tube cutting prices competitive with those of other
processes. |
 |
|
Our other laser tube cutting systems enable us to cut slots and holes in tubing up to
14" diameter and 1/2" wall thickness. Special software used with our lasers also
gives us coping capabilities for piping.
