Allow a vision to come to life with tubes and profiles in vehicle frames, in furniture and lamps, as well as in mechanical and plant engineering, for example. A fully automated tube processing chain helps you to tackle any skills shortages, reduce your high costs, and develop new business opportunities. TRUMPF will provide everything you need to achieve this. The full package. When will you invest in limitless options from a single source?
Your challenges in the tube processing sector
What does your perfect tube processing chain look like?
Increased security thanks to seamless support of the entire process chain
The tube processing chain consists of storing, processing, and welding. It can be automated precisely based on your requirements. A fully automated process chain comprises up to 7 steps: storing, loading, laser tube cutting, unloading and sorting, tube bending, 3D laser cutting, and welding. Our software and service solutions simplify the process. Of course, you can also only partially automate the process steps. It is up to you – design your perfect process chain with us.
Overview of the process steps
1. Storing
The right store solution for your raw material and more storage space. The STOPA store and our Oseon production control will help you to structure your store and save on search times.

Fully automated loading of your laser tube-cutting machine: The machine requests raw material via an interface and is loaded directly from the store cartridges.
Find out more3. Laser tube cutting
Design complex contours and new tube designs using cost-effective, efficient, and flexible technology that prevents reworks and errors.
Find out more4. Automated unloading and sorting
Automated unloading and sorting via the unloading automation interface with longitudinal conveyor belt. This reduces operator involvement, errors, and costs.
Find out more5. Tube bending
Highly efficient and accurate CNC tube bending technology reduces component costs, and prevents welding and soldering work. We rely on transfluid® as our partner.
Find out more6. 3D laser cutting
A TruLaser Cell system will enable you to integrate complex geometries into bent tubes both in bending zones and final cuts.
Find out more7. Welding
Automatic arc welding ensures the productive and reliable joining of components. Automatic laser welding also saves you time and money.
