Bevel Cutting Laser Tube Cutting Machine: Functions, Cutting Range, Features, Advantages, and Working Principle

1. Functions

• Cutting & Beveling: Performs both tube cutting and beveling (e.g., V, Y, or X-shaped bevels) in a single operation for welding preparation.

• Complex Shape Processing: Capable of oblique cuts, holes, and irregular shapes (curves, multi-angle cuts).

• Multi-Material Compatibility: Suitable for metal tubes (carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, etc.).

2. Cutting Range

• Tube Diameter: Typically covers Φ20mm–Φ600mm (varies by model).

• Tube Length: Standard models support 6m–12m, with custom options for longer tubes.

• Wall Thickness Capacity:

  • Carbon steel: 0.5–25mm (fiber laser);

  • Stainless steel/aluminum: 0.5–15mm.

• Bevel Angle Range: 15°–60°, with precision up to ±0.5°.

3. Key Features

• High Precision: Laser positioning accuracy ±0.05mm, smooth cuts with minimal burrs.

• Automation: Integrated CNC system (PC/PLC), supports 3D model imports (e.g., SolidWorks).

• Versatility: Handles round, square, rectangular, and custom-shaped tubes.

• Flexible Production: Quick program switching for small-batch, multi-variety processing.

4. Advantages

• Efficiency: 3–5x faster than plasma/flame cutting; beveling and cutting completed in one step.

• Cost Savings: Eliminates secondary grinding, improves material utilization by 15–30%.

• Superior Quality: Heat-affected zone <0.1mm, minimal deformation, better weld compatibility.

• Eco-Friendly: No tool wear, noise <75dB, equipped with dust extraction systems.

5. Working Principle

• Laser Generation: Fiber laser (typically 1kW–6kW) produces a high-energy beam.

• Beam Delivery: Reflective mirrors/fiber optics guide the beam to the cutting head, focused into a 0.1–0.3mm spot.

• Dynamic Tracking: Capacitive sensors adjust the cutting head’s distance (Z-axis floating).

• Multi-Axis Motion: Synchronized movement (X/Y/Z + rotary axis) for 3D cuts; beveling via cutting head tilt.

• Assist Gas: Oxygen (carbon steel), nitrogen (stainless steel), or air (thin sheets) removes molten residue.

Additional Notes

• Typical Applications: Oil/gas pipelines, automotive exhausts, structural steel, aerospace tubing.

• Advanced Options: Some models include AI defect detection or remote monitoring.
