Metal orbital tube-cutting machine WyTube FC series

for pipe endslaserCNC

Overview
The WyTube FC series features four independent chucks with synchronous CNC control, delivering high-precision cutting for round, square, rectangular and special-shaped tubes (up to 300 mm diameter). With 1200–3000 W fiber laser source options, the series achieves cutting speeds up to 120 m/min and positioning accuracy of ±0.05 mm. Designed for heavy, large-diameter pipes and long tubes (models supporting up to 12 m+), engineered for continuous industrial operation and high material utilization.

Key features

• Four independent chucks with synchronous CNC control enabling 360° rotation and coordinated clamping.
• Supports round, square, rectangular and special-shaped tubes (with optional special jaws/software).
• Laser source options: 1200 W, 1500 W, 2000 W, 3000 W (fiber laser).
• Cutting speed up to 120 m/min (model-dependent).
• High positioning accuracy (±0.05 mm) and high repeatability (down to ±0.015 mm on higher models).
• Capability for zero/short tail material processing and intelligent nesting to maximize material utilization.
