Medium-Power Tube and Plate Fiber Laser Cutting · 3000W

3000W Tube and Plate Fiber Laser Cutting Machine

The 3000W Tube and Plate Fiber Laser Cutting Machine from Shandong Xinhong CNC combines flat sheet cutting and rotary tube cutting in a single machine, eliminating the need for separate tube and plate cutting lines. Powered by a 3000W IPG/RAYCUS fiber laser source, it cuts carbon steel plate up to 12mm and tubes up to 8mm wall thickness. The self-centering chuck handles round tubes from 20mm to 220mm diameter, square tubes up to 200×200mm, and rectangular profiles. The machine switches between plate and tube modes via software control - no physical reconfiguration required. This dual-purpose capability makes it ideal for fabrication shops that process both structural tubing and flat sheet but cannot justify two dedicated machines.

Buyer Pain Points & Solutions

Separate tube and plate cutting lines: Fabricators that process both flat sheet and tubular material typically maintain two machines or outsource one process. This dual-purpose machine handles both in a single setup - cut plate components on the flat bed, then switch to tube mode for structural tube cutting without changing tools or reconfiguring the machine.
Outsourced tube cutting lead times: Outsourcing tube cutting to specialized shops adds days of lead time and shipping cost. In-house tube cutting on this machine produces ready-to-weld tube components on demand, eliminating outsourcing delays and improving margin on tubular fabrications.
Complex intersecting tube cuts: Cutting branch joints, mitered corners, and hole patterns on tubes traditionally requires multiple machines and manual repositioning. The CNC rotary axis with tube nesting software handles 3D unfolding of intersecting profiles, producing ready-to-weld intersections in a single programmed operation.

Core Advantages

Dual-mode: flat plate + rotary tube cutting - The machine switches between plate cutting mode (1500×3000mm flat bed) and tube cutting mode (chuck-driven rotary axis) via software control. No physical tool changes or machine reconfiguration required - the operator selects the mode in CypCut and loads the appropriate material.
Self-centering chuck for 20-220mm tubes - The heavy-duty self-centering chuck grips round tubes from 20mm to 220mm diameter, square tubes up to 200×200mm, and rectangular profiles with chuck runout under 0.1mm. This range covers most structural steel tubing used in fabrication.
3D tube nesting software with intersection cutting - The CypCut tube cutting module handles 3D unfolding of intersecting tube joints, branch connections, mitered elbows, and fish-mouth cuts. Supports DXF, STEP, and IGES file import for direct conversion from 3D CAD models.
Auto-focus cutting head with capacitive sensing - Maintains optimal focal distance on both flat plate and round tube surfaces, compensating for material flatness deviations and tube ovality without manual adjustment.
Support roller system for tube stability - Adjustable support rollers along the bed prevent tube sag and deflection during cutting, maintaining positional accuracy on full-length tubes up to 3000mm.

FAQ

How does the machine switch between plate and tube cutting modes?

The mode switch is controlled through the CypCut software interface. For plate cutting, the operator loads a flat sheet onto the cutting bed and selects plate mode. For tube cutting, the operator loads a tube into the chuck, selects tube mode, and the software activates the rotary axis. No physical tool changes or machine reconfiguration are required - the cutting head and chuck coexist on the same gantry.

What tube shapes and sizes can this machine process?

Round tubes from 20mm to 220mm diameter, square tubes up to 200×200mm, and rectangular profiles. Wall thickness capacity is up to 8mm carbon steel and 6mm stainless steel. The self-centering chuck adjusts automatically to the tube diameter, and support rollers maintain alignment along the full length.

Can the machine cut intersecting branch joints on tubes?

Yes. The CypCut tube nesting module supports 3D unfolding of intersecting tube joints, including branch connections, mitered elbows, and fish-mouth cuts. The rotary axis rotates the tube while the cutting head follows the programmed path, producing ready-to-weld intersections in a single operation. DXF, STEP, and IGES file formats are supported.

Does the tube cutting capability reduce plate cutting performance?

No. The plate cutting specifications (working area, accuracy, speed, and thickness capacity) are identical to our dedicated 3000W plate cutting machine. The tube cutting functionality is an additional capability that shares the same laser source, gantry, and control system - it does not compromise plate cutting performance.

What is the maximum tube length the machine can handle?

The standard bed accommodates tubes up to 3000mm length. For longer tubes, a rear support extension is available as an optional accessory. The support roller system prevents tube sag and deflection on full-length tubes, maintaining cutting accuracy along the entire length.
