Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) - Trumpf TruLaser Tube 7000 6kW Fiber Laser

The Trumpf TruLaser Tube 7000 6kW Fiber Laser is an advanced 5-axis laser cutting machine equipped with an 8-bit tool changer, designed for precision tube processing. It can cut a variety of tube sizes and open profiles, delivering high-quality cuts with fast turnaround times and reduced operational costs.

This machine is capable of cutting tubes and open profiles made from materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, copper, brass, and mild steel. The machine supports tube diameters up to 10 inches O.D. and wall thicknesses ranging from ¼ inch for copper and brass, 3/8 inch for aluminum and stainless steel, to 1/2 inch for mild steel.

• High Precision: The 5-axis design allows for highly accurate cuts, including bevel cuts, chamfers, and weld-ready features.
• Efficiency: The system enables faster production with minimal need for manual intervention or secondary operations.
• Cost Savings: Reduced prep work and the ability to combine multiple operations in one setup lead to cost savings for customers.
• Faster Turnaround: The automation features, like the bundle loader and conveyor system, allow for quick material handling and job changes, leading to faster production times.

The TruLaser Tube 7000 excels at providing high-quality 45-degree bevel cuts both inside and outside of the tube. It can also produce weld bevels and chamfers before the parts are cut to length, reducing or eliminating the need for post-processing work such as manual grinding. This feature is ideal for customers requiring weld-ready parts.

Yes! In addition to cutting, the TruLaser Tube 7000 can also perform secondary operations such as tapping, flow drilling, and QR code etching. This allows us to deliver parts that are fully prepared for assembly, minimizing the need for additional machining or manual operations.

The bundle loader allows for automated material handling. After loading a bundle of material, the machine automatically feeds it into the system, minimizing downtime and the need for manual intervention. Operators can focus on part unloading, quality inspection, and packaging while the machine handles material loading and cutting.

The 6kW fiber laser source offers faster cutting speeds, higher precision, and improved efficiency compared to traditional laser systems. This leads to quicker part production, tighter tolerances, and better repeatability, ensuring consistent results for each job.

The TruLaser Tube 7000 reduces lead times by combining cutting, beveling, and secondary operations in a single setup. The automated material handling system and quick job-switching capabilities streamline workflows, allowing AMP to meet tight deadlines without compromising on quality.

Yes, the TruLaser Tube 7000 is highly flexible and can handle a wide range of custom and complex part designs. Its 5-axis capabilities allow for intricate cuts and profiles, including curved and angular shapes that are difficult to achieve with traditional cutting methods.

For AMP, this machine allows us to increase our capacity, reduce production time, and improve quality control. For our customers, the result is faster delivery of high-quality, precision parts at competitive prices. It also minimizes the need for secondary operations, reducing overall project costs and lead times.

The machine can cut a variety of tube profiles, including round, square, rectangular, and custom-shaped tubes. It can also handle complex geometries and profiles that require high levels of precision.

Yes! The TruLaser Tube 7000 is capable of both high-volume production and small batch runs, making it suitable for a wide range of production needs, from prototyping to full-scale manufacturing.
