As part of the Ryerson family of companies, we offer processing capabilities that our competitors can’t match. Among them are tube laser cutting machines that will cut tube, channel or structural shapes to length while also adding holes or complex cutout designs—all in a single step.
Our tube laser manufacturing capabilities give our customers the ability to replace manual processes and optimize the cutting process.
No downtime or extended lead times: By combining a tube mill and tube laser in a single facility, we can move your project through each stage with no gaps or delays. We are a full line service center that will:
- Process the metal
- Produce the tube
- Fabricate to your specifications
- Ship you the end product
All types, all shapes: This three-dimensional cutting machine will cut carbon, stainless, aluminum and red metals; in round, square, rectangular and irregular shapes.
Eliminate secondary operations: A tube laser can cut a piece to length and add holes and other cutout designs in a single step, eliminating the need for secondary actions and manual material removal. You gain the ability to hold tight tolerances on more complex fabrications. Parts can be produced from one continuous piece of raw material to ensure that they only fit one way and are easily assembled. We can tube laser aluminum, stainless steel and carbon.
We’ll supply the metal—and process it. |
