What Is the Best Tool for Stainless Steel Pipes Cutting?

With the development of the economy, metal pipes have become an indispensable material in manufacturing and other industries. There are many types of pipes/tubes, such as circular, oval, square, angle, channel, stainless, iron, aluminum, and other different profiles. To meet the needs of various industries, we'll need to cut these metal pipes into different shapes or desired sizes. A fiber laser tube cutting machine is our best choice for some high technology industries that require high cutting precision.

Fiber Laser Cutter for Pipe Cutting Working Principle:

When the laser beam hits the pipe, the irradiated area heats up rapidly, causing the material to melt or vaporize. Once the laser beam penetrates the tube, the cutting process begins: The laser beam moves along the set cutting path while melting the material. After cutting the pipe, only a narrow slit is left, almost as wide as the laser beam.

Laser tube cutting has almost no restrictions on the pipes' material, shape, size, processing environment, etc. The operation is flexible and convenient. The laser cutting has high precision and few burrs. Also, for cutting stainless steel pipe, the laser is better than plasma since there is no oxidation and the surface will not turn black. This dramatically reduces the processing time of the subsequent process. Even if you change the diameter or shape of the pipe, you only need to modify the program.

With the development of laser technology in recent years, laser cutting technology has long been widely used by manufacturing and industrial manufacturers to cut irregular surfaces of stainless steel and galvanized pipes. If we use a CNC plasma tube cutter for cutting stainless steel pipe, it may cause deformation. And there may be burrs and irregularities on edge.

As a new high-tech product, the laser tube cutters integrate CNC technology, laser cutting, and precision machinery. Its high-precision and efficient processing methods have won the recognition of many pipe manufacturers. Many domestic and oversea companies chose fiber laser cutting machines for greater profits.

As a professional fiber laser cutting machines manufacturer, EagleTec has provided comprehensive laser welding and cutting solutions, focusing on welding and cutting technology for ten years. Our research on laser technology has never stopped and keeps breaking through. Our team supports our faith in giving laser machines that meet the requirements of superior performance, high precision, stable operation, sorting integration, etc., and continues to explore the field of laser cutting.
