ULH series · Profile, plate & tube

ULH H-Beam Laser Cutting

Bring beam cut-off, holes, notches and bevel preparation into one cutting workflow. The ULH platform combines structural-profile, large-format plate and heavy-tube processing for steel fabricators, with scanning and five-axis control matched to the workpiece.

ULH30035-20000W configuration

Technical specifications

The ULH30035-20000W uses a 20 kW laser and provides a 30,000 × 3,500 mm plate area for straight cuts. Its H-section range covers web heights of 150–1,500 mm and flange widths of 100–600 mm. For bevels, match the head travel and clearance to the actual section drawing.

Three processing routes

Build the process around your stock

The configuration shown is the ULH30035-20000W, combining a 20 kW source with a long-travel platform. Start with the section and operations your workshop needs.

01 · Structural sections

H-beams and open profiles

Prepare cut ends, holes, notches and bevels on H-sections, I-sections, channels and angles. The proposal lists a 150–1,500 mm H-section web range and 100–600 mm flange range.

02 · Plate

Long-format flat cutting

Use the 30,000 × 3,500 mm straight-cut area for long plate and nested components. Specify material, thickness, minimum features and the required edge condition.

03 · Heavy tube

Large sections with chuck support

The specified tube package covers round and square sections up to 1,200 mm, lengths up to 12 m and loads up to 14 t. Confirm the complete section, clamping and support arrangement.

Machine systems

From the actual section to the cut path

Scanning, motion control and the cutting package work together. Review each system against your stock variation, connection details and production sequence.

Profile scanning and program preparation

Illustration of profile scanning at the ULH cutting head

Contour scanning

Account for the section you load

The BCW600B scanning system captures the profile surface and builds a point-cloud model. Comparing the measured section with the design lets the control compensate the cutting path for variation in rolled stock.

Use representative incoming sections to verify alignment, feature location and compensation before approving the process.

FSCUT9200 and TubesT

Carry connection details into the program

FSCUT9200 coordinates the profile-cutting axes and tool-centre-point control. The proposal includes Tekla .nc1, .xml and .step input and TubesT three-dimensional nesting.

Check your exported files, feature recognition, marking and nesting requirements using actual production drawings.

Five-axis bevel cutting

A/B swing-head assembly

Approach the joint from the required angle

The specified BOCI BLT462P cutting head works with the A/B swing assembly for three-dimensional contours and bevel preparation. The proposal lists A-axis travel of ±45° and B-axis travel of ±90°.

The required bevel angle, root face, material thickness and head clearance determine the usable process. Validate the finished joint geometry on a representative part.

Long-travel bed and workpiece support

Illustration of the ULH welded machine bed

Structure and alignment

Support long stock through the cutting sequence

A segmented welded bed, stress-relief processing and machined mounting surfaces provide the basis for the long-travel platform. Rail alignment and full-travel calibration form part of machine setup.

Specify stock mass, lifting access, support positions and finished-part removal together. A dual-station table arrangement is an option in the proposal.

Holes, notches and connection features

Illustrative H-section with holes and end cutouts

Part preparation

Define the features that matter at assembly

Combine cut-off, hole cutting, notching, bevel preparation and marking where the drawing and process allow. The illustrated H-section shows the kinds of features to discuss; it is not an inspection record.

Agree hole size and spacing, end geometry, bevel condition and any remaining machining. Check the sample against the connection drawing before changing the production route.

Customer installation

ULH in structural-steel production

Jiuwu Steel Structure brought more beam cutting and connection preparation in house with an ULH26030, 20 kW laser and 26 m processing travel.

Jiuwu Steel Structure: Fewer Cutting Handoffs

Bringing beam cutting and connection preparation together, with fewer transfers between cutting, drilling and milling.

See the installed machine and workflow

The Jiuwu case describes beam holes, flange notches, cut-off operations and the handling steps around them. Its reported outcomes belong to that customer's installation and production conditions.

The installed ULH26030 is a different configuration from the ULH30035-20000W specification sheet above. Use the case to examine the workflow, then match the equipment to your own parts.

Before ordering

Prepare the site and acceptance sample

A long machine needs a complete plan for loading, foundations, utilities and inspection. These inputs shape the delivered package.

Materials and drawings

Send the section drawing, steel grade, wall thickness, stock and finished lengths, mass, batches and joint details. Include sample files from your design software.

Layout and utilities

Plan around the approximate 36 × 5.3 × 4.6 m machine envelope. Confirm foundations, crane access, guarding, extraction, electrical supply, assist gas, cooling and maintenance clearances.

Factory and site acceptance

Agree sample parts and measurement methods for holes, notches, cut ends and bevels. Check machine motion, representative cutting, handling and operator training against the signed technical agreement.

Configuration and lifecycle

Support for the delivered system

The reference package combines a Raycus 20 kW source, FSCUT9200 control, BLT462P head, BCW600B scanner, TubesT nesting and dual-circuit cooling. Confirm component selection, tube equipment, optional workstations, training and warranty terms for your order and destination.
