Laser micro-machining machine

for metalscutting

Tube micro laser cutting is a high-precision laser technique that is used to laser cut small tubes, mostly in metal. Tube material with a diameter starting from 0,6mm can be processed. Specifications precision tube cutting From Ø0,6mm Scratch, burr-free Both prototypes and large series Large variety of materials Except: high reflective materials (for example pure copper) Cleaning of different materials Several cleaning methods are available to finish laser cut tube components. Different materials demand different finishing approaches. A common used finishing method is ultrasonic cleaning using a chemical solution. Tube material on stock, supplied by the customer or custom made If necessary, tube material can be made to measure by external suppliers. This way, tube components can be created with the exact, required dimensions in terms of inner and outer diameter, wall thickness, surface roughness, material properties, tensile strength, … Laser wavelengths for thin metal cutting applications range from UV to NIR. High-speed fiber lasers (1064 nm) melt and ablate the metal quickly, while diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) lasers work well for applications requiring higher precision. In addition, UV lasers achieve precise, detailed cuts, minimal kerf widths and low heat-affected zones. You can also use UV lasers if your application requires a clean cut edge. Finally, ultrafast femtosecond and picosecond lasers achieve the best cut quality and are used to cut metals and coated metals.
