Mazak Optonics Corp. has released a new Tube Gear 2D laser-cutting machine with enhanced processing speeds for tubes and pipes. "The Tube Gear's high-speed capabilities for thin-walled applications offer increased efficiency and a significant reduction in cost per part compared to similar tube and pipe cutting systems," said a company spokesperson.
Available with a 2.5 kW or 4 kW resonator, the Tube Gear can process round and rectangular tube and pipe with diameters of up to 6". It has a standard 5" Servo Focus torch and can make cuts at a rapid traverse rate of up to 6,299 IPM.
The Tube Gear is equipped with a triple chuck system that, according to the company, minimizes warp and material vibration, allowing for high-accuracy and high-speed processing of material up to 21.3' long. "It also includes a bundle material load/unload system that allows for increased throughput for large lot sizes up to 4.2 tons while still comprising a smaller footprint than similar machines," said the spokesperson.
Other standard features of the Tube Gear include an automated lens focal distance measurement system, automated calibration function and a nozzle cleaning system. There is also an optional automated nozzle change system to reduce machine set-up times.
