Em 1987 a ADIGE foi a primeira a desenvolver e aplicar a tecnologia laser para a produção de tubos, criando um sistema totalmente automático que parte do tubo em feixe até chegar à peça acabada. Centenas e centenas de aplicações no mundo todo contribuíram para que alcançasse uma posição de liderança no mercado adquirindo uma vastíssima experiência.

The ADIGE Laser Tube Cutting System consolidate up to SIX conventional fabrication steps into ONE continuous cutting process on ONE machine.

ADIGE’s Laser Tube Cutting Systems are designed to cut a broad range of tube shapes including round square, rectangular, flat oval and unique configurations. These flexible high speed fabricating work cells include fully automatic loading and unloading as well as powerful easy-to-program software for rapid set up, changeover, prototyping and maximising material utilisation.

These laser based tube cutting systems have brought significant process and economic benefits to the fabrication and assembly of mechanical tubing into a wide range of end use products. Those benefits are found in three primary areas:

• Dramatic improvements in labor productivity with users reporting increases of 70% to 80% compared to conventional methods
• Reductions in downstream assembly costs due to the ability to hold tighter fabrication tolerances resulting in better fit up, easier assembly, and simpler assembly fixturing
• The high efficiency of the process and its broad flexibility puts additional degrees of design freedom into the hands of new product designers that can enhance innovation in new product development and reduce the time to market of new products
