Tubular Laser Cutting
Along with our standard laser cutting services, we have invested heavily in tubular laser cutting facilities and can perform this work on site in Telford, Shropshire.
Tubular laser cutting is a highly productive and flexible method of processing tubes which is now finding a wide variety of applications across many industries.
Cutting of highly complex shapes is possible and with imaginative design, tubes can easily be formed and slotted together. This accuracy then ensures that secondary assembly operations are therefore more straightforward, eliminating the need for jigs and fixtures and reducing the requirement for welding.
We can use our tubular laser cutting machines with a wide variety of materials such as stainless steels, aluminium and many mild steel grades.
What is tubular laser cutting?
Tubular laser cutting, like laser cutting, is a manufacturing process that is used to cut very precise patterns in materials like metals, plastics and wood.
The complexity of the shapes that can be cut, and the accuracy with which they can be, is impossible with conventional machining tools.
The process works by exciting a gas, most often carbon
dioxide, causing it to amplify light that is bouncing back and forth in
the machine's laser chamber. Eventually the amplified light emerges from
the chamber, where it is focused to a very precise point, and the energy in the focused point heats up the material and melts it.
