Laser Tube Cutting
Laser tube cutting machines are extremely expensive, technologically advanced, and demanding in terms of programming, but they form the backbone of a modern metal tube fabrication plant.
The photo above alone illustrates the value of making perfectly precise cuts along the various axes of a tubular component: 90% of the subsequent assembly work is already completed—in a perfectly repeatable manner—with a minimum of tooling and inspection jigs.
Above all, welding operations—which are time-consuming and costly and remain the weakest link in terms of quality—are greatly simplified when the pre-cut assembly parts have been properly designed. Laser cutting of tubes is truly the key to quality, automation, and repeatability in the manufacture of tube-based assemblies—and thus to their costs.
Sagaert Métal recognized this from the very beginning of this technology’s emergence and has systematically equipped its facilities with the latest-generation tube laser machines as the technology has rapidly evolved. Digital cutting and bending, painting and surface treatment, robotic welding, and in-house engineering departments: our tube component factory in northern France is a leading industrial facility.
Especially since, in the same city of Comines, the Sagaert Group also operates a fine sheet metal fabrication facility, a wire forming plant, several precision engineering workshops, aninjection molding plant, and, above all, employs several hundred motivated, passionate employees who are fiercely committed to our region’s industrial heritage…

Laser Tube Cutting: A Closer Look
Our laser tube cutting machines produce perfectly precise cuts along the various axes of a component: 90% of the subsequent assembly work is already completed—repeatably—with a minimum of tooling and inspection fixtures.
Welding operations—which are time-consuming and costly—are greatly simplified when the pre-cut parts for assembly have been properly designed. Laser cutting is key to the quality, automation, and repeatability of tube assemblies—and thus to their costs.
Computer-controlled cutting and bending, painting and surface treatment, robotic welding, and in-house engineering departments: we manufacture, for example, special-purpose vehicle frames, security grilles, and custom racks. Come see for yourself—Lille isn’t far from where you live!

Because it enables perfectly precise cuts along all axes of a component, which simplifies assembly, reduces tooling requirements, and ensures repeatability.
90% of the subsequent assembly work is already completed during the cutting process, and welding operations are greatly simplified.
Digital bending, robotic welding, painting, and surface treatment, all handled by our in-house engineering departments.
In Comines, in the Nord department, near Lille. The group also operates a fine sheet metal fabrication facility, a wire forming plant, precision machining shops, and an injection molding plant there.
