Tube laser cutting
Tube laser cutting has completely revolutionized the design of metal structures.
At LASER GALICIA, we have invested in the technology TRULASER TUBE 7000 fiber which allows the manufacturing of complex geometries that significantly reduce the assembling and welding times, therefore, increasing the rigidity and quality of the structure.
Additionally, the technology TRULASER TUBE 7000 fiber includes a technology package for tapping on the machine (FLOW DRILL) that using an NC-controlled spindle unit is able to do processes like, twist drilling, thread cutting, flow drilling and tapping.

Advantages of the tube laser cutting technology
These types of machines can also work with commercial laminated profiles, making the custom metal manufacturing with these types of materials much quicker and reliable.
The option of bevel cuts up to 45° widens, even more, the design capacities and enables the saving in welding times, since it gives the designer the possibility of selecting the characteristics of the contact surfaces.
The high precision, flexibility, and speediness of the tube laser cutting process result in a great saving in labor for our clients. Furthermore, it gives us the freedom to design new tube structures that would not be possible using conventional methods.H2. Características de la tecnología TRUMPF TruLaser Tube 7000 fiber.

Benefits of the tube laser cutting
The tube laser cutting counts with the following benefits:
High precision
It allows much more precise and detailed cuts in tubes and profiles with tight tolerances which is essential to achieve good results in complex assemblies that include tubes and/ or profiles.
Clean cuts without burs
The tube laser cutting machine performs clean cuts, without burs and imperfections on the edges, which avoids deburring and polishing works. It saves time and labour cost.
Designs flexibility
One of the main advantages of the tube laser cutting is the high design flexibility. The laser cutting machines for tubes are capable of cutting the most complex geometries, with countersinks, threaded wholes, bevel cuts, etc which reduces the need for posterior processes like threading or edges preparation.
Time optimizing
This type of technology to cut tube is much faster than any other type of traditional cutting methods. The cutting speed together with the automatization, simplifies the process and permit quick lead times.
Less material waste
Thanks to the precision of the laser cutting and the capability of performing very tight cuts, the waste material is minimized.
