STRUCTURAL STEEL LASERTUBE: STANDING INNOVATION The laser cutting technologies employed to manufacture tubular structures are gaining wider use the construction field. Some recent studies and tests, conducted at respected universities, give a great impetus to the use of laser cutting for buildings by excluding a direct correlation between surface hardness (that is induced by laser cutting) and the fatigue of the material. Steel has always played a major role in the construction industry, owing to its excellent mechanical properties and its versatile use: these features are essential to...

holes, slotted holes or sections not to be welded) and the fatigue response. The aforesaid connection is, however, not matched by the experimental evidence of the studies and surveys made, over the past few years, as a result of the collaboration between the Department of Civil, Environment and Mechanical Engineering (DICAM) of the University of Trento (Italy) and ADIGE-SYS company, such a collaboration aiming at examining the effects of the laser cutting technology and the use of the same with structural steel elements machined in accordance with the EN 1090 Standard. The results of the...

STRUCTURAL STEEL FROM DRAWING TO PRODUCTION IN ONE CLICK VILLING TECHNOLOGIE GMBH Complete metal structures, daring roofing, fire escape ladders and gates, intelligent supporting structures for special civil engineering projects: special complex constructions are the specialty of VILLING Technologie GmbH. These are the products that the innovative, a thirty man, metal working company based in Friesenheim in Baden, Germany, supplies to customers operating in various industires across Europe. The people at VILLING Technologie particularly enjoy being called for projects that stretch beyond...

THE FREEDOM OF ANGLES, SHAPES AND SIZES The entire structure consists of 150 mm diameter round tubes– that work as uprights of the structure – and square section tubes with an outer width of 60 mm. “For fitting we laser-cut the holes and cut both the circular and the square section tubes”, explained Villing pointing to the relevant areas. “Some of the joints are also welded to show how discreet and clean weld seams can be today”. The structure has a screwed couplings. In all cases, the accuracy of laser cuts and of the couplings is unquestionable. SPECIAL CASE SERVICE SUPPLIER 10 It is...

THE SECRET IS IN THE INTEGRATED PROCESS In VILLING Technologie, the LT20 is perfectly integrated with the computerized job preparation and organization. After the customer’s approval, the 3D CAD data of the steel structures designed at the company seamlessly flow to the Artube programming and simulation system of the system for CNC 3D section and tube laser cutting. Artube automatically creates the single optimized machine program and perfectly simulates the production process on the screen showing how it will be run on the tube and section laser cutting system. This is the...

Tubilaser serves a wide variety of industries; construction (bridges and stadiums), agricultural machinery manufacturers, ski-lift structures for ski resorts, interior design and architectural elements, general fabrication, etc. In short, their customers can be anyone that uses laser cut tubular components. Tubilaser initially purchased BLM GROUP’s laser tube cutting technology as a way to differentiate themselves from other fabricators. According to Guido Bonaldo, owner of Tubilaser, “it was a way for us to be able to offer our customers better quality components at a lower cost”....

automation of the manufacturing process for a single component, but they cover the entire production process for a given project and that results in the overall lower costs compared to the traditional processes” says Flavio. To explain his point he gives this example. Let us consider two 40 feet long, large diameter round tubes. These tubes are to be end-cut to form a 90° joint between them and they also have other pockets to be cut along their length where additional tubes are to be inserted to form a tubular structure. Now you will appreciate that these pockets have to be cut with correct...

CAPACITIES • Weight capacity up to a 40 kg/m. • Machinable diameter up to 240 mm. • Efficient fiber 3D cutting, also on very thick steel parts. AMAZING PERFORMANCE The LT8.10's unique parameter control, determined by the speed, maerial type and features to be cut, allows you to finally cut THE WAY YOU LIKE, automatically! You will be able to cut AT PRECISE POINTS. An non-contact optical device ensures real-time detection of the tube shape and position of the bar to be machined, and corrects positioning in real-time. EASY TO USE Programming with Artube 3 guides you to the right technical...

statement about the company established by Mr. Giuseppe Zini as a mere artisan enterprise and converted, in the course of time, into an industrial group by his son Walter Zini: the group, highly renowned both in Italy and abroad, specializes in fabricating tubes intended for EXPERIENCE the automotive industry. Mr. Giuseppe Zini established the business in 1969: by that time, he was a qualified welder and had gained extensive technical experience (including a previous stay in Sweden, where he had worked as a welder at shipyards). He started welding hydraulic tubes intended for FIAT Trattori,...
