Tube
Laser Cutting
NSI Group was the first in the UK to use the Trumpf Tubematic
laser machine for specialising in the process of cutting round,
oval, square and rectangular tubes.

The machine is capable of taking
random lengths of raw material
up to 6.5 metres in length and
then laser processing to your
requirements.
The CNC controlled machine even
works out the optimal utilisation
of the material based on the size
of parts required for processing,
saving money and offering the most
cost effective solution per length of
material.
From mild steel up to 5mm thick
to stainless steel and aluminium,
this machine has the capability of
cutting various complex shapes,
cut-outs and sizes.
Using the advanced TruTops
tube software we can create
programs for complex parts easily
and also make mitre cuts that
once processed, the part can
be manipulated into the correct
angle ready for welding, not only
improving the accuracy but also
saving time and money.
The machine with its auto loading
cell can process 4 tonnes of raw
material at a time and is ideal for
high volume mass production
offering a high degree of accuracy.
