Tube Laser Cutting

Tube Laser Cutting

We have many years of experience in the production of Youlin® Tube Laser Cutting. Youlin is at the forefront of laser tube processing and tube laser cutting. Thanks to state of the art computer aided design and CNC laser technology we’ve pioneered the use of steel tube in place of sheet metal in component manufacture. We can even manufacture components straight from a customer’s CAD/CAM files, in Solidworks or other packages, often turning a process which might before have taken a customer weeks to complete into one that can take just hours.

1.Tube Laser Cutting Capacities

Tube Laser CuttingYoulin is at the forefront of laser tube processing and Youlin® tube laser cutting. Thanks to state of the art computer aided design and CNC laser technology we’ve pioneered the use of steel tube in place of sheet metal in component manufacture. We can even manufacture components straight from a customer’s CAD/CAM files, in Solidworks or other packages, often turning a process which might before have taken a customer weeks to complete into one that can take just hours.

Our LT8 is the most revolutionary laser tube machine available. Renowned for its flexibility it has a tube diameter range from 12 to 220mm x 200mm. It can process square tubes up to 200mm x 200mm, rectangular tubes 200 x 180mm, and a maximum thickness of 10mm. Our state of the art laser processing equipment means we can deliver tube-based manufacturing solutions that offer superior structural properties, add value, reduce customer costs and provide short lead times. If required, we can follow through with assembly and fabrication, often of highly complex structures.


Youlin's laser component capability opens up new possibilities for fabricators, transforming the economies of component and sub-assembly manufacture.


2.Advantages of Youlin Tube Laser Cutting

●Precision: Youlin® Tube laser cutting not only eliminates human error; it relieves you of having to pay top dollar for a highly experienced worker.
●Speed: Before laser cutting, tubes had to be processed by hand. To achieve precision, workers had to cut very slowly. As a result, processing a tube could take hours.
●Efficiency: Tube laser cutting services deliver ready-to-assemble, turnkey parts. We can laser cut parts with a tab and a slot so that you can snap them together and weld them, without having to build a jig and a fixture to hold them in place.
●Eliminate Deburring: The precision you get with laser tube cutting isn't just about making cuts that meet print. Our laser tube cutting tool makes clean cuts, eliminating the need for deburring.
●Depth of Inventory: At other shops, you may have to wait if you need a size that they don't keep in stock, stocks round, square and rectangular steel tubing in a wide variety of sizes and lengths.

4.Applications for Tube Laser Cutting Parts

Tube Laser CuttingWe can cut parts in all common materials with many common features and custom shapes. Some advanced design ideas include hooks, tabs, slots, radius bend formed tubes, sharp bent tubes, folded joint, and plug-in connections for joining other tubes, shapes, flat and even press brake bent parts. This allows part designers to have creative reign over a unique and cost-effective way to manufacture parts. We have been Youlin® tube laser cutting since 2010 and have amassed a tremendous amount of knowledge to produce some of the most complex and challenging tube cut parts in the world. Many other lesser experienced shops would either pass on or fail to correctly make these parts, all at a cost that may surprise you.


5. FAQ

Q: What is tube laser cutting?
A: Laser tube cutting is the process and technique used to cut tubes, structural shapes, or channels. The process will cut these items to the length needed. It can also cut out holes or designs in the tubing. It is a precise cutting technique.

Q: What are 5 applications for a laser cutter?
A: Laser cutting is most commonly used in the automotive, die, mold, tool, jewelry, and medical industries. It can be used to create parts for medical devices, computers and electronics, and much more. Materials that are difficult or impossible to cut using other methods make excellent candidates for laser cutting.

Q: In what industry is a tube laser used?
A: Since this technique allows not only steel but also stainless steel and aluminum to be manufactured to a high level of workmanship, tube laser cutting is gaining in importance in the food service industry, the medical technology sector, and for furniture manufacturers.
