LT24 processes tubes up to 24" (610 mm) in diameter, with loading and unloading lengths up to 59' (18 m) meters. There is an ever-increasing demand for structural steel applications offering numerous job opportunities.
LT24 basic configuration and material flow
Haven’t you decided which configuration yet? Don’t worry, we are there to advise you
Along the entire process (loading, cutting, and unloading), each tube and section loaded in the machine is always supported and transferred from each machine zone. This eliminates the risk of damage during processing, and even more importantly, each finished cut part.
Integral part quality
On the unloading side, the motorized support beds receive each part and delicately transfers it to the chains below. The tubes are always supported during rotation to limit risk of damage and maintain the geometric precision of the job.
A fast track for short parts
It is easy to pick up the short parts (up to 126" - 3200 mm) on the dedicated automatic metal conveyor. It operates independent from the cutting area, so parts exit the machine without interrupting production.
Drilling and threading: high added value option.
If you need to add holes and threads after cutting, instead of moving the pieces to another machine, with all the possible risk of errors and waste of time, use the radial drilling unit integrated in the machine.
A light touch for spectacular effects
If your tubes are irregular, a mechanical probe will measure the profile, detect centering and torsional errors, and the machine will correct the cutting path on the fly to obtain precise geometries on every part.
Save time and material
Use all the material and minimize scrap at the end of the tube. The machine determines how to gain the greatest yield from each bar, automatically optimizing the nesting sequence.
Effective cuts also on dirty or rusty surfaces
With the special pre-cutting working mode, the laser first cleans the material along the cutting path and then proceeds the cutting process. Expensive or high-demand material will not be wasted.
Choose the safety for your job
LT24 is Class 1 laser system built in compliance with the highest safety standards and CE regulations.
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.
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.
