The target

Van Kerkhof Metaalbewerking wants to stand out among the traditional metalwork competitors by focusing on laser processing of large tubes and sections.

The solution

The acquisition of an LT14 laser cutting system has allowed them to expand their market to new customers, taking advantage of the opportunities arising from laser cutting even in heavy fabrications with large tubes and beams.

With the LT14, machining operations can be carried out that were previously unthinkable, and time is saved in all machining steps. Laser cutting produces precise, clean and already burr-free cut edges, simplifying assembly operations on site.

LT14
Laser cutting machine for large-size tubes and sections All operations – loading, cutting at the ends or in middle of the bar and unloading – are carried out automatically, simplifying production and improving quality and safety of work.
We still think too much in terms of kilograms and calculations instead of focusing on intelligent manufacturability. Lasertube has set the trend for the next big change.
