Fast and efficient tube cutting laser
COMPINE MULTIPLE WORK STAGES IN ONE MACHINE
Fiber tube is the result of Cutlite penta’s long and consolidated experience in the field of laser machines and represents the future of laser technology applied to metal tube cutting. The Fiber Tube system is an automatic processing system that allows obtaining a finished part, complete with all the cutting operations required, in a single machining cycle.

FIBER TUBE
This approach represents a technological and productive leap compared to traditional methods, which require several steps on different machining centres to subsequently carry out the required cutting, deburring, drilling, end trimming, interlocking and special CNC machining. This is achieved thanks to the speed, quality, accuracy, flexibility and reliability of laser technology. The system allows the automatic machining of round, square, rectangular tubes and open profiles.

EVO 3 HEAD
The EVO3 cutting head is equipped with a capacitive sensor. The FIBER TUBE system use the EVO 3 autofocus cutting head, entirely designed by our research and development department and built using cutting edge precision mechanics from Cutlite Penta; the head is equipped with a contactless capacitive sensor.

BEVEL HEAD
Bevel cutting is the process of cutting a piece with an edge not perpendicular to the top of the piece. The mechanically innovative head is very small, lightweight and allows rotating by +/- 45° in both cutting directions.

LASER SOURCES
Fiber laser sources provide extensive versatility and make it possible to cut a multiplicity of metal types. Developed as a single system, it can be paired with a wide variety of optical fiber diameters. High efficiency, excellent beam quality and low power consumption are all hallmarks of the source. The source is housed in a NEMA 12 cabinet which is conditioned and sealed so that it can operate even in the harshest of environments. The high degree of reliability of these sources also ensures particularly low maintenance costs.
