Tube Processing Solutions

Tubes are important components of device and machine constructions. Conventional fabrication requires multiple successive processes such as drilling, punching, milling, sawing, and deburring on different machine tools. This results in long throughput times, high costs, and limited flexibility for changes.

GEMVIS uses ground-breaking laser technology, which allows the complete fabrication of a piece in one machine with a single technique. Production is carried out in one step, without burrs and finishing operations. In addition, through laser's non-contact operation, tubes and profiles with a thin wall thickness can be processed without deformation.

Precision tubes cut out of high tensile steel are used as side impact protection in vehicle doors. The complex cut geometry of the tube ends is manufactured conventionally only at high cost and high tool wear. Our laser machinery manages these tasks easily, without wear and with minimal material loss.

Weight Savings

High tensile, thin walled tubes used for frames are either conventionally soldered with sleeves or directly welded together. The welded connections make lighter designs possible, but precisely worked tube ends are necessary. These can be made economically with our lasers.

Control over a Great Variety of Work Pieces

A great deal of consumer and industrial equipment is manufactured primarily of tubes that vary in diameters, lengths, hole patterns and ends. The variety of these work pieces requires production that is not restricted by tools. Our lasers can automatically work semi-finished pieces consisting of different components.

New Design Possibilities

The working of tube elements with our lasers allows the free forming of cut geometry. As a result, new design concepts are converted quickly.
