Join us at FABTECH on Sept 11 for our technical session, “Accuracy & Precision in Tube Laser Cutting”, presented by Marshall Arndt, manufacturing engineer, Sharpe Products. Attendees will learn best practices for tube laser cutting. Elements such as gas pressure, beam direction, material distance, nozzle centering, and programming techniques will be covered. Participants will hear about controlling heat transfer through frequency, duty cycle, and power adjustments. A special section on proper positioning of tube or pipe along with what consumables are required, will also be included.
Join us at our technical session, "Accuracy & Precision in Tube Laser Cutting" being held on Sept. 11 at noon. Register today!
Additionally the newest addition to our lineup of machine technology - the Unison Breeze - will be on display at FABTECH.
The machine, a 100 mm (4”) single-stack model, will be showcased at Unison’s Booth # D41930, after which it will be installed at our Wisconsin-based manufacturing plant. It will be the ninth Unison Breeze tube bender that has been purchased by our company since 2003 and will be used to provide additional capacity for bending tubular components.
“This latest Unison Breeze tube bending machine will help to support our ability to offer short lead times and consistent results – attributes that are essential to our customers,” says Paul Krickeberg, President & CEO of Sharpe Products. “We’ve worked with Unison for numerous years and look forward to installing this next gen machine at our plant.”

UK-based Unison Ltd is a pioneer in ultra-precise, all-electric tube and pipe bending, and the Breeze 100 mm (maximum tube diameter) machine is one of its flagship models. Just like all Unison Breeze tube bending machines, the 100 mm/4” Breeze offers rapid setup, fast tooling changes, exceptional power, rigid mechanical design, and all-electric control for precision, repeat sub-contract work, or immediately after producing a single trial part. These attributes are ideal for frequently changing, small- to medium-batch production runs.
Other single-stack Unison Breeze machines at our company include the 80 mm (3”) and 100 mm (4”) variants, along with the 76 mm (3”), 80 mm (3”) and 130 mm (5”) multi-stack Breeze machines – each able to accommodate several tools for rapid changeover between bending cycles.
