Subcontract tube laser cutting · North Rhine-Westphalia & throughout Germany
Tube laser cutting
for tubes & sections.
We laser-cut tubes and profiles in steel, stainless steel and aluminium to your drawings. Our system handles lengths up to 6,000 mm and cross-sections up to 240 × 240 mm, from one-off parts to production runs.

Fewer operations
Digital manufacturing for tubes and sections
Tube laser cutting combines cutting to length with holes and shaped cut-outs in one operation. Also called pipe laser cutting, it prepares components for frames, machinery and welded assemblies. Share your drawing with us so we can check the geometry, wall thickness and material.
Less rework
Profiles, holes, countersinks and bevels are produced in a combined process.
Repeatable production runs
Digital programmes ensure consistent geometry across repeat parts.
Complete assemblies
Welding, finishing and assembly can follow directly.
Manufacturing capabilities
More than cutting to length
Functional features are cut directly into the tube or section. This simplifies subsequent assembly and reduces additional machining operations.
Complex cut-outs
Free-form profiles and repeat geometries produced from digital component data.
For fabrication and assemblyOpenings & cut-outs
Accurately positioned holes and cut-outs, produced directly where required.
Less drilling and millingTab-and-slot joints
Assembly aids and interlocking profiles for repeatable assemblies.
Faster jigging and assemblyMitres
Angled and mitred cuts for frames, supports and tubular structures.
Prepared for an accurate fitCountersinks & bevels
Defined edge geometries for bolted or welded joints.
Part of the manufacturing processComponent identification
Project-specific markings make sorting and further processing easier.
Clear workflows for production runs
Automated machine
For flexible quantities and repeat parts
Automatic loading and unloading support efficient material flow. This makes the machine suitable for individual parts made to drawings, small batches and regularly required components.

Frequently asked questions
Tube laser cutting at a glance
Technical answers for design and purchasing teams, helping you prepare an enquiry we can assess quickly.
Which tubes and sections can NN process with its tube laser?
We process round tubes, square and rectangular sections, and other technically suitable sections in steel, stainless steel and aluminium. We assess feasibility using your drawing and material specification.
What are the maximum dimensions for tube laser cutting?
The machine processes components up to 6,000 mm long with cross-sections up to 240 × 240 mm. We assess unusual geometries and wall thicknesses individually.
Can the tube laser produce holes, countersinks and bevels directly?
Yes. Profiles, holes, countersinks, bevels and prepared tab-and-slot or joining features can be combined in one digital manufacturing process, reducing subsequent operations.
Does NN also make one-off parts and small batches?
Yes. Our subcontract tube laser cutting service covers prototypes, one-off parts, small batches and repeat production runs made to customer files.
Can NN carry out further processing of tube laser-cut parts?
Yes. On request, we provide CNC press brake bending, MIG, MAG, TIG and laser welding, grinding, surface finishing and assembly through to the finished assembly.
What information do you need for a quotation?
Ideally, send STEP or DXF files or technical drawings, together with the material, dimensions, wall thickness, quantity, required finish and target delivery date. We will discuss any outstanding details with you directly.
