1–15 kW power range

Select laser output from the material, thickness, profile geometry, piercing demand and target throughput.

Coordinated chuck and support

Match chuck arrangement, following supports and unloading method to profile geometry, length and weight.

High-volume cycle design

Use automatic loading and programmed cutting to shorten non-cutting time across repeat production orders.

Expandable automation

Add intelligent feeding, finished-part sorting or production-line interfaces according to workshop requirements.

03 / Machine details

Chuck, cutting head
and tube software.

The delivered chuck, support, cutting head and software configuration can vary with the tube range, laser power and automation scope.

01 / PROFILE CLAMPING

Pneumatic tube chuck

The chuck centers and rotates the tube for programmed profile cutting; final jaw and chuck arrangement is selected for the workpiece range.

02 / LASER PROCESSING

Fiber laser cutting head

The cutting head is matched to the selected laser source, focus strategy, material and wall-thickness range.

03 / CNC WORKFLOW

Tube cutting software

The control workflow supports profile programming, path preparation and coordinated machine operation.

06 / Project evaluation

From a tube family
to an automated cutting cell.

The loading and cutting system should be evaluated with representative profiles, batch sizes and the real upstream/downstream workflow.

01

Tube-family review

Provide drawings, materials, profile shapes, outside dimensions, wall thicknesses, lengths, weights and batch quantities.

02

Automation study

Match loading structure, buffer, chuck, supports, laser power, unloading and sorting to the required cycle.

03

Representative sample cutting

Validate typical and difficult profiles, cut quality, accuracy, tailing strategy and cycle assumptions.

04

Technical agreement

Freeze the tube range, automation boundary, components, utilities, software, training and acceptance scope.

07 / Common questions

Before you automate
tube loading and cutting.

Confirm the entire tube family and handling cycle before locking the machine configuration.

What makes this machine automatic?

The system is configured with automatic feeding so tubes can be loaded into the cutting cycle with less repeated manual handling. Loading buffer, sorting and line-integration scope should be confirmed for the project.

Can it cut round, square and rectangular tubes?

Yes, the product is positioned for round, square, rectangular and suitable special-shaped profiles. Confirm exact dimensions, wall thicknesses, straightness, lengths, weights and clamping requirements before quotation.

How should I select the 1–15 kW laser power?

Use the material, maximum and typical wall thickness, profile geometry, piercing demand, assist gas, edge quality and target output. The highest power is not automatically the best choice.

Can special-shaped profiles be loaded automatically?

It depends on the profile geometry, orientation consistency, bundle condition and feeding design. Representative samples and drawings are required to validate automatic loading.

Can the system connect to an automatic production line?

Intelligent feeding, sorting and line interfaces can be configured. Define the upstream material supply, downstream part handling, signals and responsibility boundary in the technical agreement.

What specifications still need confirmation?

Confirm tube range, usable length, tube weight, loading bundle, chuck and supports, tailing strategy, discharge, sorting, axis performance, laser source, cutting head, CNC, extraction, utilities, dimensions and weight.

What should I send for a recommendation?

Send representative drawings, material grades, profile shapes and dimensions, wall thicknesses, lengths, weights, batch quantities, cycle target, acceptance criteria and available factory space.
