Quickly switch from one section to another! Prepare one tube to be cut, while another is already being processed.
Production changes are made with zero lost time, making the most of the machine's full productivity.
From standard to special profiles in an instant
Easily access the loading area with an overhead crane or forklift and feed your machine with the profile of your choice.
This convenient system allows you to quickly switch from tube bundles to loading special profiles.
Each tube has its proper grip
Maintain optimal configuration with tubes of any weight: the chuck adjusts automatically to preserve material quality.
The reliable grip prevents scratches on light tubes and delivers great control on heavy profiles.
Convenient collection benches
Machined and separated parts are easy to pick up on both sides of the discharge, brought to the case by convenient motorized counters.
Scrap separated from production
Quickly empties collected production waste into an external crate without stopping the machine. Scrap is unloaded into separate crates for convenient disposal.
Tube Cutter: high-performance cutting
High-performance, consistent quality with the autofocus cutting head specifically developed for tube processing by BLM GROUP. The tapered design allows you to cut concaved special shaped profiles with accuracy and repeatability.
Rivet insertion unit
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.
Active Tools: smart functions to improve your productivity
Let Active Tools handle the adjustments for you
Difficult jobs
Active Speed
This function dynamically and automatically manages all laser cutting parameters to ensure quality and efficiency, even in the most difficult conditions.
Warped tubes
Active Scan
This function makes the necessary corrections to the part program to have the same accuracy even on twisted or deformed tubes.
Welding position
Active Weld
Active Weld detects the position of the weld seam on the outside or inside and rotates the tube with the seam in the programmed position.
LTX Applications
Save time and material
Using the dynamic compaction (nesting) function, the LTX 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
LTX is Class 1 laser system, built in compliance with the highest safety standards and CE regulations.
The special safety-glass and sealed cutting area provide safe observation of the processing area during operation, while an independent safety system allows you to introduce a new tube section without interrupting production.
Integrate Lasertube and tube bender with All-In-One
When bending a laser-cut part, elongation results 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!
Increase your production efficiency
Prometheus provides reliable quotes and allows you to identify the best production strategy for both single parts and entire production batches.
It also allows you to manage logistics planning, monitoring and productivity analysis phases, with the possibility of integrating with your ERP.
All the systems communicate with each other and simulate the manufacturing process to support the solution of daily start-up and production changeover problems.
