QH-6022GH 3-Chuck Heavy Duty Tube Laser Cutting Machine 6000W with Optional Water-Assisted Slag Removal

The QH-6022GH is a three chuck heavy duty tube laser cutting machine for medium to heavy wall steel pipe. Three chucks support and clamp the tube along its length, so long and heavy sections stay rigid during high speed cutting. Optional water-assisted slag removal can be fitted to clear molten dross from inside the pipe, leaving a clean bore and cut edge that need far less grinding before welding.

• Three Chuck Support - three clamping points hold long heavy tube rigid, cutting vibration and taper are reduced
• Optional Water-Assisted Slag Removal - water flow flushes molten dross out of the pipe bore and off the cut edge
• 6000W Laser Source - cuts carbon steel tube up to 12mm wall and stainless tube up to 8mm
• Automatic Loading - bundle loading and single tube feeding reduce operator handling on heavy stock
• Optional Zero Tailing Cutting - short tail cutting improves yield on expensive heavy wall tube
• Other Optional Functions - bevel cutting, head removable around chuck and weldseam identification are selectable

Laser cutting of steel tube leaves molten dross that sticks to the inner wall of the tube and to the lower edge of the kerf. The water-assisted slag removal unit is an optional module: a controlled water flow is delivered along the tube bore and at the cut zone, quenching the molten dross and flushing it out of the tube before it can weld onto the inner surface. The result is a clean tube bore and a dross-free cut edge, so downstream welding, threading, coating and assembly need far less grinding and cleaning. Water is recovered and recirculated by the chiller circuit, so consumption stays low in continuous production.

Note: water-assisted slag removal, bevel cutting, zero tailing cutting, head removable around chuck and weldseam identification are all optional functions and can be selected independently according to the tube size, wall thickness and downstream process.
