			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://send2pressnewswire.com/image/11-0301-lasertube_72dpi.jpg" border="0" title="Adige LT8 Tube Laser" alt="Adige LT8 Tube Laser" class="alignright" align="right" />COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 3 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; It practically works at the speed of light. Laserflex announced this week the release of its all new Adige LT8 tube laser cutting system &#8211; it&#8217;s fast, accurate and efficient and will add quality to the process and end-product. </p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.laserflex-inc.com/lasers.html" >Adige LT8 Tube Laser</a> excels in having the greatest flexibility, quality and precision cutting on a tube diameter range from .472 to 8.66 inches and a bar weight up to 23.5 pounds per feet. </p>
<p>&#8220;Our laser fabrication services cater to a wide range of manufacturers in an array of industries,&#8221; says Rick Sulc, general manager for Laserflex. &#8220;And, we are now proud to be among the very few to provide the most efficient and advanced laser tube processing equipment in the region.&#8221;</p>
<p>Laser processing can reduce manufacturing cost by eliminating manufacturing sequences. Laser tube processing can drill, bevel, miter and cut-to-length in one operation. Part geometry is determined by the laser path which is computer numerically controlled (CNC), thereby eliminating the need for high-capital expenditure dies, tooling or stamping presses. And, because no hard tooling is required, both high and low volumes are economically justifiable when using this equipment.</p>
<p>Markets that will benefit from tube <a href="http://www.laserflex-inc.com/index.html" >laser-cutting systems</a> include: home and hospital equipment; industrial lifting equipment; motor homes; truck accessories; health and fitness equipment; construction scaffolding; agricultural equipment; store fixtures; and much more.</p>
<p>From simple cutting and joining to metal fabrication, prototype development, and reverse engineering, Laserflex has the experience and ability to get the job done right, on time and within budget. </p>
<p>The company&#8217;s Computer Integrated Manufacturing and Management system (CIMM) provides immediate access to every job in process and each completed project. </p>
<p><strong>About Laserflex:</strong><br />
Laserflex is a precision metal fabricator that uses technology to provide full service <a href="http://www.laserflex-inc.com/equipment.html" >laser cutting</a> services for industrial laser cutting, forming, welding, machining and finishing needs. It has two strategic locations: Columbus, Ohio; and Duncan, South Carolina. </p>
<p>The company has a reputation for advanced technical knowledge and experience in metal cutting and joining. It operates an efficient production shop that features the latest in laser-cutting technology. Using a team concept, it aligns technology, experience and a serious commitment to service.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://send2pressnewswire.com/image/10-1220-aseoptics_72dpi.jpg" border="0" title="Dr. Jennifer Rouke" alt="Dr. Jennifer Rouke" class="alignright" align="right" />ROCHESTER, N.Y., Dec. 20 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; With the addition of Dr. Jennifer Rouke, ASE Optics increases its capabilities in systems analysis and modeling for imaging systems. ASE Optics provides contract optical engineering and custom lens assembly manufacturing for companies worldwide.</p>
<p>ASE President Christopher Cotton notes: &#8220;Dr. Rouke&#8217;s extensive systems engineering experience will grow both our team&#8217;s capacity and our ability to partner on larger programs. Her recent work in alignment modeling for earth imaging systems and remote sensors is tremendously valuable to some of our current astronomy projects.&#8221;</p>
<p>Jennifer Rouke adds, &#8220;Joining ASE Optics brings me back into the lab, and will let me bring some of my thesis work in interferometry and optical measurements to bear. Working with this team and with this range of customer projects is an exciting opportunity.&#8221;</p>
<p>With outstanding credentials including a PhD in Optics from the University of Rochester, Dr. Rouke adds considerable practical expertise to the ASE optical engineering staff. Her theoretical and experimental experience at the U of R Institute of Optics included work with gradient index (GRIN) materials, fabrication of gradient-index glass, interferometric measurement of index profiles and wavefronts, derivation of birefringent GRIN ray tracing equations, and modeling of fringe patterns. </p>
<p>Dr. Rouke&#8217;s recent design projects have included modeling for precision mirror alignment in WorldView-2 and GeoEye-1 earth imaging systems. The addition of her systems engineering and modeling expertise will help ASE Optics to better serve its growing base of astronomy, defense, medical, and high technology customers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://send2pressnewswire.com/image/12-1210-ohiolasr_72dpi.jpg" border="0" title="Laser and Optical" alt="Laser and Optical" class="alignright" align="right" />PLAIN CITY, Ohio, Dec. 10 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; Ohio Laser LLC has opened a new dedicated <a href="http://www.ohiolaser.com/lasertubecutting.asp" >laser tube cutting</a> and laser pipe cutting facility on their ISO-9001:2008 manufacturing campus. Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM&#8217;s) can now streamline their production of tubes and pipes efficiently at one location.</p>
<p>This stand-alone building features a brand-new 3600 Watt Trumpf TruLaser 7000 laser tube cutting system, a 3000 watt Trumpf Tubematic 5000 system, raw material storage and a 10 ton overhead crane to make the transfer of materials fast and easy throughout the entire facility. Custom tube fabricating services at <a href="http://www.ohiolaser.com/" >Ohio Laser</a> include CNC tube bending, robotic tube welding, machining and manual welding to process all types of tubes, pipes and other metal components.</p>
<p>The facility offers manufacturers <a href="http://www.ohiolaser.com/lasertubecutting.asp" >tube cutting</a> of outside dimensions between 0.6-inch through 8-inch square tubes and 10-inch round tubes. Ohio Laser offers laser tube cutting of tubes up to 30-feet long, weighing a maximum of 500 pounds and up to 1/2 inch wall thickness. In addition to the high tech capabilities at Ohio Laser, OEM&#8217;s and others can count on JIT service and decades of metal fabrication and engineering experience to improve their manufacturing processes with tubes and pipes. </p>
<p>Ohio Laser&#8217;s dedicated tube processing center offers manufacturers increased efficiencies in producing racks, frames, trusses, supports, manifolds or any other item made from cut tubes and other metal fabrications. Products that dramatically benefit from laser cut tubing include playground equipment, exercise equipment, point of purchase display racks, sign frames, railing, food equipment, industrial tables, display cases, ATVs, racking systems, etc.</p>
<p>Laser tube cutting is dramatically more advantageous than conventional tube cutting methods. Laser tube cutting lowers production costs by reducing multiple operations with conventional tube fabrication into one automated process. While conventional tube fabrication can include sawing, drilling and milling operations, all of which require setup and lag time &#8211; not to mention additional labor and overhead costs &#8211; laser tube cutting condenses such operations into a single act.</p>
<p>Also, laser tube cutting and pipe cutting include the removal of stack up tolerances associated with multiple operations, zero tooling charges, and the ability to make smaller production (high) quality runs. Laser tube cutting makes possible the engineering of many types of profiles including holes, cutouts, end copes, bending copes, slots, tabs, and hook designs that considerably reduce (and in some cases a totally eliminate) weld tooling and clamping. </p>
