Unlimited possibilities with no compromise
Choose the optimal loading and unloading length according to your production needs. Optimize your production flows, control two machines with a single operator by choosing your LT7 "right-handed" or "left-handed" version

Convenient solutions for uninterrupted work
You can load LT7 with round tubes, square tubes, rectangular profiles, open profiles, or special sections, either manually, with a bridge crane, or forklift. Always easily.
Production changes happen instantly and manual adjustments aren’t necessary.
The rear loader is open and accessible. The loading chains, in addition to the bundle cradles, which can be quickly removed, allow you to select the most suitable loading configuration according to batch size or section. You can also integrate robotic loaders or automated storage systems.
Automatic tube warehouse
The Lasertube family has a new loading device designed to improve productivity and process efficiency even further.
Faster production changes with the automatic tower magazine available for LT7.
The steel boxes, each containing the various tubes to be processed, are moved from the tower to the machine and back at each production change.
Multiple destinations to never stop
The three programmable unloading positions allows you to keep finished parts organized and simplifies part collection, saving time and never interrupting production. Scrap is also accumulated in external and removable bins without ever having to stop the system.
The unloading system changes, the quality remains the same
Quality guaranteed always: the parts are always resting on the unloading platform during processing. Long parts receive additional side support during rotations, thanks to the templates on the unloading platform, optimizing the machine dynamics during operation.

Light or heavy tubes:
Impeccable results every time
The universal support templates automatically adjust according to the type of workpiece. Lightweight, flexible tubes are supported with additional lateral guides during fast rotations. Heavy and stiff tubes are totally free to move using the integrated steel cylindrical rollers.

Thin cutting head so you can process anywhere
Cut any geometry on any section.
Thanks to the slim design of the Tube Cutter head, developed by BLM GROUP, you can work in total freedom, cutting a wide range of special profiles and open sections, wihtout restrictions.

Insert value!
The automatic insertion unit for threaded inserts on workpieces expands the possibilities of the laser cutting system and simplifies production. A single processing step negates the need for intermediate handling or storage. Inserts from M4 to M12 (according to the tooling) are taken from a continuous feeding system and applied using an easily reconfigurable motorized tool.

Save time and material
Using the dynamic compaction (nesting) function, the LT7 sets the sequence of the parts to be cut along the tube to minimize the end-of-bar scrap, making unloading operations easier and faster.

Quality outside and inside
Avoid needing to clean inside the tube after laser cutting. Activated at any time without having to retool the machine, the tube cleaner device is inserted through a suction probe into the tube and collects waste and fumes generated during processing.
Choose the safety
for your job
LT7 is a Class 1 system. There is no risk of coming into contact with laser beam emissions and reflections during operation. Because it is important to work in total safety in compliance with the highest standards dictated by EC regulations.
Special glass and a properly sealed cutting area protect you from the risks of laser radiation, while an independent safety system allows you to introduce a new tube beam without interrupting production.

When bending a laser-cut part, elongation resultss in the curved areas that shift the previously made geometries.
BLM GROUP Lasertubes and tube bending machines automatically solve these errors by exchanging information on the mechanical characteristics of the tube and making corrections to compensate for elongation.
That's how you get perfection from the first part!
