Tube Lasers Explained

What is a Tube Laser?

A tube laser is a specialized cutting machine designed for processing “tube shaped” materials. This also includes forms of angle, or channel tubing. The system rotates tubes as the laser maintains focus, enabling complete 360° processing at high speed.

Applications

Fiber tube lasers excel in metal fabrication across industries including automotive (exhaust systems, frames), furniture manufacturing, construction (handrails, structural components), and medical equipment production. Their ability to cut complex patterns makes them ideal for both practical and decorative applications in metal tubing.

Benefits

Fiber tube lasers deliver superior performance through faster cutting speeds, exceptional precision, and greater energy efficiency. They handle reflective aluminum with ease. The focused beam creates minimal heat-affected zones, reducing material distortion and secondary finishing work.
