FAQs
FAQ: What’s the best file format for tube laser cutting quotes?
A: Please provide a .IGES or .STEP file. (.IGES is preferred)
FAQ: What’s the best file format for sheet/plate parts (cut and bent)?
A: For 2D parts, please provide a .DXF (w/ bend lines) or .STEP file. For cut and bent products, .STEP files are recommended.
FAQ: What considerations are there for modeling square tubing for laser cutting?
A: When modeling square or rectangular tubing for tube laser cutting, please ensure the corner radii are accurately represented. Inaccurate corner radii will directly impact the quality and precision of the final cut, potentially affecting part fit and function. Please make sure to use accurate dimensions, use the table below as a guide if dimensions are not available.
| Tube Size (in) | Tube Type | Wall Thickness (in) | Recommended Corner Radius (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.50 x 3.00 | Rectangular | 0.187 | 8 |
| 2.00 x 3.00 | Rectangular | 0.187 | 6 |
| 1.00 x 1.00 | Square | 0.120 | 4.5 |
| 1.50 x 1.50 | Square | 0.120 | 5.5 |
| 1.50 x 1.50 | Square | 0.187 | 8 |
| 2.00 x 2.00 | Square | 0.120 | 5 |
| 2.50 x 2.50 | Square | 0.120 | 5 |
| 3.00 x 3.00 | Square | 0.187 | 4 |
FAQ: What’s the best way to prepare my files for a fast quote?
A: For rapid quoting, we recommend organizing your part files by material specifications:
- Round Tubing: Group files by OD x Wall Thickness.
- Square Tubing: Group files by Width x Wall Thickness.
- Rect. Tubing: Group files by Width x Height x Wall Thickness
- 2D/3D Parts: Group files by material thickness.
This helps our systems identify critical dimensions not automatically recognized by our nesting software (e.g. wall thickness).
