Less Handling and Waste
Servo supports reduce repositioning; overtravel cuts tail waste.
Without Overtravel Cutting
Long Tail Waste
- More repositioning
- More handling
- More waste, higher cost
With Overtravel Cutting
Short Tail Waste
- Fewer repositioning
- Less handling
- Less waste, lower cost
Less Handling. Less Waste. Lower Cost. Servo supports reduce repositioning; overtravel cuts tail waste.
Controlled Motion and Support
Core Capabilities
Servo Follow-Up Loading Support
The servo follow-up support moves with the tube during feeding and cutting, reducing manual repositioning, limiting tube sagging and maintaining stable support for long workpieces throughout the process.
Verified basis: Supports tubes up to 6,000 mm long. Minimum loading length: 3,500 mm.
Laser Head Precise Positioning Function
The laser head accurately locates the pipe and cuts.
Precision Chuck Clamping
Front and rear chucks automatically center, clamp and rotate the tube. Stable clamping reduces vibration and movement, helping maintain consistent hole positions, contour accuracy and repeatable cutting performance.
Verified basis: Kandini 240 chuck with Bochu S9 servo system, subject to final configuration.
Optional Cutting-Head Overtravel
The optional cutting-head overtravel extends the usable cutting area near the tube end. It reduces blind zones and shortens tail material, improving material utilization and reducing unnecessary handling.
Verified basis: Optional function. Final remnant length depends on tube size, clamping allowance and machine configuration.
Simple CNC Operation
The Bochu CNC system coordinates feeding, chuck rotation, cutting paths and machine motion through one interface. It simplifies setup, reduces programming time and supports efficient daily operation.
Verified basis: Bochu CNC system. Software functions depend on the supplied version.
Materials and Workpieces
Application-Based Configuration
| Material / Workpiece | Confirmed Size | Wall-Thickness Capability | Process Boundary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carbon Steel Round or Square Tube | Round: 15–240 mm; Square: 15 × 15–240 × 240 mm | 12–14 mm | Upper value depends on material grade, tube geometry, assist gas, focus, piercing strategy and required edge quality; confirm with a representative test |
| Stainless Steel Round or Square Tube | Round: 15–240 mm; Square: 15 × 15–240 × 240 mm | Up to 6 mm | Use a verified nitrogen or approved assist-gas process; confirm deformation, corner quality and heat input with a sample test |
| Aluminum Round or Square Tube | Round: 15–240 mm; Square: 15 × 15–240 × 240 mm | Up to 4 mm | Capability depends on alloy, reflectivity, profile stability and process setup; representative testing is required before batch production |
| Industry | Typical Workpiece | Customer Pain Point | How This Machine Helps |
|---|---|---|---|
| Metal Furniture | Table legs, chair frames, shelving tubes and decorative metal structures | Numerous holes and angled joints require repeated sawing, drilling and manual positioning | Integrates contour cutting, hole cutting and end-profile processing in one setup, reducing secondary operations and improving part consistency. |
| Fitness Equipment | Treadmill frames, exercise-machine tubes, handles and support structures | Multiple tube shapes and frequent model changes make manual processing slow and inconsistent | CNC-controlled processing supports repeatable batches and flexible program changes for different tube profiles and component designs. |
| Automotive and Transport | Seat-frame tubes, brackets, exhaust components and structural tubular parts | Tight tolerances and repeatable hole positions are difficult to maintain across production batches | The chuck, servo system and CNC control can support repeatable feature placement when the workpiece, tooling and process are correctly configured. Any numerical accuracy claim must be supported by configuration-specific technical data or a documented acceptance test. |
| Construction and Fabrication | Handrails, frames, supports, angle steel and channel components | Conventional cutting and drilling involve several machines, transfers and manual measurements | Combines several cutting operations into a digital workflow and processes tubes up to 6,000 mm long, helping shorten preparation and production time. |

Common Questions
FAQ
What tube profiles can the FL-CT-6024-1500W process?
The confirmed workpiece range covers round tubes from 20 to 240 mm in diameter and square tubes from 10 × 10 to 240 × 240 mm. Rectangular tubes, angle, channel and other irregular profiles are not covered by this confirmed range and require drawing-based checks for clamping, rotation clearance, loading support and cutting feasibility before they are quoted or published.
What are the minimum and maximum tube sizes?
For the FL-CT-6024-1500W, the confirmed round-tube diameter range is 20–240 mm and the confirmed square-tube section range is 15 × 15–240 × 240 mm. Wall-thickness capability depends on material and process conditions: carbon steel 12–14 mm, stainless steel up to 6 mm and aluminum up to 4 mm at 1,500 W. Representative testing is required at the upper limits.
How short can the remaining tail material be?
The manual describes an optional cutting-head overtravel function intended to reduce blind areas and tail material. It does not provide one guaranteed remnant length for every tube. The achievable value depends on chuck layout, part geometry, clamping allowance, support position and process safety margin. Engineering should confirm the expected remnant length through the approved configuration and a representative cutting test.
Is bevel cutting available?
Yes. Bevel cutting is listed as an optional configuration in the referenced manual. The exact bevel types, angle range, supported profiles, cutting head, software and calibration requirements must be confirmed for the specific application. Send the joint drawing, material, wall thickness and required weld preparation so engineering can assess feasibility and include the correct option in the quotation.
When is an automatic or assisted loading system appropriate?
Loading support should be selected from the actual tube length, bundle size, part mix, cycle time, staffing plan and required daily output. The referenced manual describes servo follow-up support for long tubes, but it does not define a universal production threshold for full automation. Share representative tube data and output targets so the quotation can distinguish standard support from any upgraded loading package.
How does the machine control sagging in long tubes?
The referenced manual describes servo follow-up loading support and a dual-support receiving frame that move with the process to support long workpieces. The suitable support spacing and load capacity still depend on tube length, mass, profile stiffness and rotation speed. Heavy, thin-wall or irregular profiles should be reviewed through loading and rotation tests before batch production.
