P-Pro Bevel Tube Cutting for Weld Preparation
P-Pro is our five-axis bevel tube-cutting path for a joint that needs weld preparation. We check the drawing and your actual tube before quoting; a flat-cut task can use a standard tube machine.
Does your tube joint need a bevel?
If the tube joint needs a bevel before welding, we can review P-Pro for cutting that feature in one tube-cutting operation. If you only need a flat cut, we recommend a conventional tube-cutting configuration instead. A three-dimensional part alone does not establish that a bevel machine is needed.
Which joint and material details guide the review?
Send the joint drawing or photo, required bevel, tube section, outside diameter, wall thickness and material. The bevel angle is confirmed by model and configuration in the written quotation; we do not publish one numerical angle across the series. The P07 round-tube references cover 8–120 mm or 8–165 mm, depending on model.
What should a bevel sample demonstrate?
We normally cut a free sample on your tube or approved same-specification material. We check the bevel face, cut edge and the angle measurement method for that setup, then estimate cycle time. A cut bevel is not a guarantee of weld quality or a substitute for your joint acceptance test.
What belongs in the proposed configuration?
We quote the P-Pro laser power, chuck capacity, loading arrangement and component brands for the actual order. MBS chucks, Hanli chillers, AirTAC pneumatics, Jinhe guide blocks, Taiwan Liangchi/Jingte Y-axis racks and MEAN WELL electrical parts are named in the supplied component material. Laser source, cutting head, control system, reducer and servo motor brands vary by machine: we list each in the order-specific written quotation and do not issue a price without those names. The control setup can combine no-drawing programming, standard tube cutting and nesting; the actual combination is confirmed in the written quotation. Spare copper nozzles (5) and lower protective lenses (5) are listed in the supplied component material; exact delivered quantities follow the order-specific list. Installation, commissioning, training and delivery terms are written for that order.
How do you start a weld-prep application review?
Send a joint drawing or part photo and the tube material and dimensions. We can cut your tube or material of the same specification that you approve; the sample quantity is limited to choosing a configuration and preparing a quotation, and any return shipment is agreed in writing. Understand tube weld preparation.
Which figures are references for this series?
Reference figures for this series — final configuration is confirmed from your tube data during the RFQ.
Bevel angle is confirmed by model and configuration in the written quotation. For P12 variants, I-beam, channel and angle sections are listed up to 75 mm; P16 variants list I-beam and channel up to size 10. Special profiles must fit within chuck-jaw length, and custom jaws may be specified beyond the standard range.
Ready to test your tube and configuration?
We can review a real tube part, normally arrange a free sample cut and prepare a separate written quotation after the configuration is set.
