In sheet laser cutting, the subject of material loading/unloading automation is well-established. This can be achieved with many different solutions. Tube laser cutting systems that are equipped with vertical storage for tubes or section bars can handle bars automatically, allowing for unmanned production changes. They have been around for only a few years.
The option to choose between 2D/3D laser cutting technology allows for the possibility of customizing and precise cutting parts in a wide range of shapes. These include tubes with square, rectangular, and round shapes, as well as profiles with varied open cross-sections (e.g. H, L. T, Ucross-sections). 3D technology is capable of cutting straight edges up to 45degrees. This flexibility makes it unnecessary to perform costly milling and drilling, punching, punching, or other sawing operations.
