A laser tube cutting machine is an automatic CNC metal cutting machine for square, round and shaped tubes made of stainless steel, carbon steel, mild steel, galvanized steel, iron, copper, brass and aluminum for straight cutting, tangent cutting, bevel cutting, piercing, 45-degree angle cutting, joint cutting, bevel splicing, and many more metal tube cutting projects and programs.
The laser tube cutting machine is an automatic CNC tube cutting system that uses a laser beam to cut square, round, oval, rectangular, triangular, hexagonal, oval and some custom special shapes of tubes made of carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mild steel, aluminum, alloys, brass, bronze, copper and titanium. A laser metal tube cutting machine is an infinite cutting system that can cut any type of design on metal tubes at any angle and direction. Compared to plasma cutting, flame cutting, water jet cutting and wire cutting, laser cutting of metal is much more accurate and requires no grinding.
Fully automatic laser tube cutting machines will replace mechanical drilling, milling, sawing, punching or burr cleaning processes that require different metal tube cutting machines and hand tools to cut, chamfer and cut complex tube structures. Machining of grooves or holes, notches and other possible size and shape features. It is widely used in metal processing, kitchenware, lighting, automotive, medical equipment, hardware, fitness equipment and other industries.
The laser tube cutting machine uses computer-aided design software for graphic design and is imported into the operating system to cut automatically, maximizing the speed of manufacturing projects. Typically, the operating system contains a database of key information including the material type, thickness and geometry of the tube.
The laser tube cutting machine works primarily by using the thermal energy generated by the laser beam from the laser in conjunction with a kinematic mechanical system to cut the tube. The cutting tube is controlled by an intelligent system that allows for a high-quality university production.
The cost of a laser pipe cutting machine consists of a laser generator, fiber laser cutting head, CNC system, servo motor, rack and pinion, reducer, bed frame, water chiller, etc.
Considering the wall thickness of the pipe, different laser power is required. The higher the power, the greater the thickness that can be cut, and the higher the cutting speed. Considering the length of the pipe, this requires different lengths of the bed frame. Different brands of laser generators have different cutting accuracy, quality and speed. All these differences in core components lead to differences in cost and price.
The average cost of laser tube cutters on the market is around $50,000, with professional 1000W laser tube cutters starting at $47,500, while some 2000W and 3000W laser tube cutters can cost up to $80,000. Higher-end models with automatic loading and unloading systems range from $70,500 to $117,500. Dual-purpose sheet metal and tube laser cutters can cost from $42,500 to $122,000. If you are purchasing overseas, shipping costs should be considered.
The real difference between laser tube cutting machines is the cutting accuracy. With the chuck and push cutting method, the centering accuracy and processing precision is high; due to the improvement of modern laser cutting machine, it involves the industrial manufacturing of small diameter pipes. Applications are greatly accelerated. laser tube cutting machine can be adjusted accordingly to these deformations to ensure the accuracy of pipe cutting, which is not possible with many traditional processes.
The laser tube cutting machine allows for high volume production, and all operations can be unified into one unit as a continuously operating process, greatly reducing logistics time. The standard tube length is 6 meters and traditional processing requires very heavy clamping. Laser processing allows easy clamping and positioning of several meters of pipe, making batch processing possible.
Fiber laser flexible transmission, compact structure of cutting head, no reflective lens, basically maintenance-free, no loss; powerful cutting, four-jaw self-centering chuck, can cut square, round, rectangular and various shaped tubes; processing tube diameter and length range can be customized (standard round tube diameter Φ15~220mm, length 6000mm); high-cost performance, low cost of use, low subsequent maintenance cost; simple and easy to operate The processing system, real-time feedback of processing status, to ensure orderly processing.
CNC laser pipe cutting machine adopts pipe cutting software, which can seamlessly recognize the graphics of pipe fittings drawn by 3D software, and also supports the automatic generation of some common pipe fittings workpieces. The machine can cut any programmed shape on the metal pipe, and the laser can complete a perfect cut in any direction. The computer-programmed design allows for flexible and fast changes. The high flexibility of the machine provides powerful and favorable technical support for increasingly individual processing, thus reducing the number of dies used.
The advantage of the automatic laser tube cutting machine is that it can replace a variety of processing processes such as sawing and drilling to achieve tube cutting, punching and drawing cutting of various graphics. It reduces material waste to a greater extent, saves labor costs and improves work efficiency. Make better products for customers in a shorter time.

First, the CNC laser pipe cutting machine in cutting round holes, the first thing to note is that the time and division of round holes is naturally a one-to-one cutting program. Generally speaking, the size of the hole and the difficulty is inversely proportional. When the hole requires a larger diameter, the difficulty will naturally become smaller. Need to judge whether the cutting scheme of the machine we use is satisfactory, otherwise, the lack of talent will lead to irregular round holes and too many breakpoints.
Second, CNC metal pipe laser cutting machine in the round hole operation, but also pay attention to the issue of air pressure. When the gas pressure is too large or too small, it is often impossible to cut off the operation because the pressure is too small. As a result, the cutting edge is rough and the pressure is very dangerous. Therefore, when using the machine, be sure to always pay attention to the pressure problem.
Third, the laser pipe cutting machine should be debugged before the cutting operation. Generally debugged with scrap material, the operator should also be professionally trained, because the level of operation of the machine will also affect the cutting effect after all, as long as the precision planning of the equipment meets the requirements, skilled operators can cut the round hole we want, always pay attention to the maintenance of the metal tube laser cutting machine.
