The broad application scope for all metallic materials in sizes from 10 to 130 millimeters and raw material lengths of up to 8.5 meters opens up new possibilities.

The automated system reduces manual intervention to a minimum and thus makes getting started in tube processing particularly easy. At the same time, the machine covers an exceptionally broad range of needs: Since 85 percent of the market potential in the segment is in small tubes, the ByTube Star 130 is equipped for processing tubes with diameters of 10 to 130 millimeters. The machine has a loading capacity of up to 17 kilograms per meter. With the 2D cutting head, 90 percent of all customer requests are fulfilled as vertical cuts make up the largest market share.

Available in two power levels, 2 or 3 kilowatts, the fiber laser unit of the ByTube Star 130 scores points with excellent energy efficiency as well as consistent and even cutting quality.

Additional options enhance precision

Additional options can be configured individually and enable even more operating convenience and increased production quality, such as

  • “Laserscan”: Real-time compensation for tube bending to improve cutting precision, i.e., high accuracy is guaranteed in all cutting conditions, even with low-quality material.
  • “Quick Cut”: Greater speed for better performance thanks to an additional linear axis.

Automatic welding-seam recognition makes manually aligning raw material unnecessary. With Laserscan, the function independently recognizes and compensates for geometric deviations in tubes, thus guaranteeing accuracy in the cutting process regardless of raw material quality.

Left or right is not an issue

As the sole global supplier, Bystronic also provides the ByTube Star 130 laser cutting system in a design with a “mirrored” configuration upon request. This enables customers to select the optimal layout for their individual production flow. Although simple at first glance, the “mirroring” opens up benefits, while loading and unloading areas no longer get in the way. It reduces not only logistical effort, but also saves space and manpower. Thanks to faster throughput time, productivity can be significantly increased.

The ByTube Star 130 combines intelligent machine design and leading cutting technology. Its simple operation, broad application scope, and sophisticated options ensure that Bystronic customers always stay one step ahead of the field in increasingly tough competition.

ByCut Smart 6225- HIGH PRODUCTIVITY AND PERFORMANCE AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE

Now in the large format of 6.2 x 2.5 meters: Bystronic introduces the ByCut Smart fiber laser in the new 6225 large format.

More sheet metal, more parts, more variety and a new design. The ByCut Smart 6225 further optimizes sheet utilization thanks to the 6225 cutting format. The new system features up to 10 kilowatts of laser power with the optional BeamShaper and all this at an advantageous price.

More sheet metal, more parts, more variety. Laser cutting systems for larger formats offer users the opportunity to distinguish themselves from the competition without excessive financial investment. That is why Bystronic is expanding its fiber laser product line ByCut Smart with the 6225 format in a new design. The machine can also be equipped with a choice of the Fiber 3000, 4000, 6000, 8000, or 10000 laser sources.

With the new large format, users can process sheet metal with lengths of up to 6.2 meters and widths of 2.5 meters on the ByCut Smart. This increases the productivity of the machine, because cut parts can be nested more efficiently on large-format sheet metal. At the same time, undesirable raw material waste is significantly reduced due to a high degree of material utilization. The BySoft CAM process software supports users in this process with intelligent nesting procedures.

Broad range of cutting applications

Furthermore, the new format increases the variety of cutting applications on the ByCut Smart. Along with various small parts, large parts can also be cut from large-format sheet metal as needed, without interrupting the machine during the laser cutting. This is another competitive advantage not offered by laser cutting systems in current standard formats.

Besides cutting applications with extra-large sheet metal, it is also possible to process sheet metal in smaller formats, lined up on the ByCut Smart’s long cutting table. In this process, users can prepare enough raw material for the fiber laser system to subsequently run in cutting mode for longer.

In addition to ByCut Smart 6225, Bystronic offers the fiber laser in 12020, 8020, 6520, 4020 and 3015 formats.
