Solutions that optimize production time and costs
STIGAL machines are distinguished by precision cutting, the ability to perform chamfers and bevels, and automatic maintenance of operating parameters. Innovative 3D heads and advanced control systems allow the realization of complex projects, ensuring high quality parts and reliable operation even in the most demanding production tasks. Intuitive operation makes it easy to implement operators, and robust construction guarantees a long service life of the equipment. In this way, STIGAL supports the development of modern industrial plants.
Maximum use of material
In traditional tube and profile cutting systems, even a small residue of material after each cycle can generate significant waste on a production-wide basis. In the FIBER Tube 2C, the minimization of waste is the result of a movable chuck that arrives extremely close to the cutting head – so the end of the charge, which usually remains unused, is kept to an absolute minimum. In addition, two self-centering chucks firmly hold the material and allow for precise positioning, which translates into repeatability of the process and optimal use of each batch of raw material.
Synchronized operation of the chucks eliminates backlash and misalignment, ensuring that each part is cut exactly where it should be. However, it’s worth remembering that minimum waste depends on material geometry, cutting trajectory and machine configuration – you’ll get the best results when the right technological conditions are met. This approach not only reduces material costs, but also supports sustainable production and allows you to better plan orders.
Precision and flexibility in one device
The high quality and repeatability of the cut is the result not only of precise mechanics, but above all of advanced cutting head technology. The FIBER Tube 2C uses a BOCHU head with an innovative autofocus system that automatically adjusts the focus according to the thickness and type of material – eliminating the need for manual adjustment and maintaining consistent cut quality even under varying production parameters. Integrated sensors monitor key operating parameters in real time, minimizing the risk of failures and downtime.
The optional chamfer function allows simultaneous cutting and edge preparation for welding in the range of -45° to +45° (possible V, Y, K chamfers), which significantly reduces machining time and eliminates the need for additional operations. The modular design of the head allows quick replacement of lenses, while mechanical collision protection and high-power resistance guarantee long life and low operating costs. It’s a solution that realistically increases production flexibility and makes it possible to realize even the most demanding projects.

Stability, repeatability and full process control
Time-consuming and error-prone manual loading of material is a common problem in traditional production lines. FIBER Tube 2C solves it with semi-automatic feeders equipped with advanced sensors that continuously correct the position of tubes and profiles, eliminating the risk of collisions and speeding up preparation for cutting.
Two self-centering chucks play a key role here – their synchronized rotation eliminates axial runout, and stable clamping dampens vibration, which is especially important for long and thin-walled parts. The movable chuck allows the machine to arrive very close to the head, reducing material loss, and the universal jaws handle a wide range of sections, providing production flexibility. As a result, operators can focus on quality control and optimizing machine operation, and the entire line runs faster, safer and more economically – resulting in lower costs and higher quality finished products.
