LT JUMBO

Laser tube cutting for large
structural profile and tube

The lasertube JUMBO system is an automatic laser tube cutting machine that implement on grand-scale the experience, the quality and the effective solutions that are already consolidated in all the mix of our Lasertube machines.

The available versions are the LT JUMBO 14" for the processing of tubes up to 355 mm of diameter (min. Ø 25,4 mm) and with a maximum weight of 100 Kg/mt, and the LT JUMBO 20" able to machine tubes up to 508 mm of diameter (min Ø 50 mm) and with a maximum weight of 200 Kg/mt (up to 3500 kg per tube/profile).

The LT JUMBO can be used to cut tubes (round, square and rectangular), open profiles, H-beams or IPE, special profiles.

The loading unit (std. tube length of 12,5mt - Option up to 18 mt. on 20") is able to handle the singling, the measurement and the tubes movement of different shape and dimension on the work line, in series.

Tube handling and management system from the loading line to the machining area, comprising units and CNC axes for handling, turning and supporting the tube to be machined. Handling speed is variable and automatically selected according to tube weight.
After being fed into the loader, the tubes are singled out and arranged by a set of conveyors into the cutting line one at a time.

The tube is clamped by the rear carriage at this time and released at the end of the machining operations.
The carriage moves the tube along the track and supplies two working spindles.

The carriage and the spindles shift and rotate the tube along the track, specifically in the working area, so that the 5-axis unit can processes all parts - before, between and after the spindles.
Several supporting systems, arranged along the track, are self-regulating and active, these means that they are capable of supporting the bar during rotations and shifts in order to avoid/minimize the deformation caused by the weight of the tube, they are managed by a CNC axis. The supports fold away to let the carriage through when handling tubes.

The programming and the movement of the most important modules of the LT JUMBO take place through the operator console, on which it is displayed a scheme of the all devices conditions.
A technological database allows a high-quality laser cutting up to thicknesses of 16 mm.

The ability to efficiently accurately and consistently create any cut geometry in tube or pipe means that the Lasertube JUMBO it's a revolution in tube fabrication in different fields;
Agricultural equipment, heavy construction equipement, ship building, oil industry, mining and conveying, crane lifts.

The system is furnished with:

  • Chaining loader and unloading module: both of those handle bars from 12.5 up to 18 m long (min. 6000 mm long, opt. 4000 mm) and allow the machining of the entire bar.
  • Short pieces unloading device (up to 3000 mm): it speeds up the collection of the final / worked pieces and allow the collection of final pieces on a full motorized band.
  • Servo controlled support devices, which follow the profile and continuously support the pipe / tube between the chucks, so that to limit the deformations because of its own weight.
  • Tilt head for 3D machining / manufacturing: essential to realize tilted machining as for instance caulking tools and semi-caulking tools on holes and endings that facilitate the next tubes assemblage and welding operations.
  • Contact integrated measure system, that is able to notice the differences between the expected profile and the real profile and it's allow to calculate the necessary compensations, that bring the machining precision to the most elevated standards.
