CSM MACHINERY’s semi-automatic tube cutting line is the ideal solution that combines automation efficiency with cost reduction. The tube cutting machine is designed with a manually operated tube loading system, while the processing and unloading phases are completely automatic.
Thanks to this intelligent configuration, the semi-automatic tube cutting line ensures a single bar processing speed comparable to that of a fully automatic system. It is particularly advantageous for the production of many short parts from a single tube, optimizing time and reducing material waste.

The score and pull-apart system is designed to overcome the problems presented with orbital cutting of a similar conception but realized using engraving wheels. In particular, this system allows the tube to be cut without deformations on the cut edge. The tube is not cut by blades that insist orthogonally on the wall of the tube, but by the combined action of a scoring tooth (made with a three-edged tool), which progressively removes material along a circular section of the cylindrical wall, thinning it, and a clamp that detaches the tube segment.
The saw cutting system incorporates a high-resistance circular blade that rotates at high speed to perform rapid and clean cuts. This technology offers the capabilities to manage different types of tube thickness, as well as different materials, with the precision of ninety-degree cuts. Furthermore, thanks to the robust materials and the cutting technique, the tool’s lifespan is extended, ensuring sustained durability and reliability.
Guillotine cutting lines are designed for producing custom-sized tubes with the internal diameter calibrated at both ends and customized lengths. This type of system is primarily selected for medium to large-scale production, ensuring rapid cutting diameter changeovers. The subsequent punching operation, used to eliminate the “heart-shaped” distortion caused by the cut, can be performed manually via a punching gun or automatically with a punching transfer system downstream of the tube cutting.
