GWEIKE is pleased to introduce the new TG-E Series Economical Tube Laser Cutting Machine, a compact and material-efficient solution developed for manufacturers seeking reliable tube processing with lower space and operating requirements.
Featuring front-chuck overstroke technology, a minimum remnant length of 30 mm, a highly integrated machine structure, and an intelligent bus control system, the TG-E Series is designed to help small and medium-sized fabricators improve material utilization while maintaining a stable and practical production workflow.
The new series is available in 6012 TG-E and 6016 TG-E configurations, covering common round, square, and rectangular tube-processing requirements for furniture, fitness equipment, medical devices, guardrails, piping, hardware, and sanitary ware manufacturing. It joins GWEIKE’s broader range of fiber laser cutting solutions for sheet, tube, and 3D processing.

Developed for Cost-Conscious Tube Fabricators
Tube-processing companies increasingly need to balance production capability with material cost, factory space, equipment investment, and operating complexity.
For many small and medium-sized manufacturers, a large heavy-duty tube laser cutting system may exceed their actual production requirements. At the same time, conventional economical machines can leave longer remnants, occupy valuable workshop space, or lose stability when cutting close to the tube end.
The TG-E Series was developed in response to these practical challenges. Rather than simply reducing machine configuration, we focused on the areas that directly affect daily production efficiency: remnant control, machine footprint, final-cut stability, ease of operation, and compatibility with common tube sizes.
Front-Chuck Overstroke Reduces Remnant Length to 30 mm
During conventional tube cutting, the chuck structure can limit access to the final section of the material, leaving a remnant that cannot be processed. Repeated across production batches, these unused sections can create significant material waste.
The TG-E front chuck can move beyond its conventional working position, extending the accessible cutting area near the end of the tube. This allows the minimum remnant length to be reduced to as little as 30 mm, helping customers obtain more usable parts from each tube.
Dual-Chuck Clamping Maintains Stability During the Final Cut
Reducing the remnant length requires more than extending chuck travel. The tube must also remain properly supported as the cutting head approaches the material end.
The TG-E performs the final cut while the tube remains clamped by two chucks. This support helps control tube movement and provides a more stable cutting process during the short-remnant stage, making the machine suitable for repeatable batch production.
Integrated Design Reduces Floor Space by 30%
Factory floor space is a major consideration for manufacturers adding new tube-processing capacity to an existing workshop.
In the TG-E Series, the electrical cabinet, laser source, and pneumatic system are integrated into the machine bed. This layout reduces the overall footprint by approximately 30%, supports easier transportation, and gives manufacturers greater flexibility when planning the production area.
Intelligent Bus Control Simplifies Daily Operation
The TG-E Series is equipped with an intelligent bus control system designed for convenient deployment and straightforward operation.
The system supports functions such as flying cutting and drawing-free operation, helping reduce preparation steps for common production tasks and allowing operators to manage routine tube-processing orders more efficiently.
The TG-E is not positioned as a simplified heavy-duty machine. It is a focused economical solution built around the production priorities that matter most in everyday tube fabrication: lower waste, less floor space, stable cutting, and practical operation.
Two Configurations for Different Tube Sizes
GWEIKE offers the TG-E Series in two configurations, allowing customers to select a machine according to their actual tube dimensions and production requirements.

Designed for Everyday Tube Fabrication Applications
The TG-E Series is intended for manufacturers processing common round, square, and rectangular tube profiles in recurring production batches. These applications often place a high priority on material utilization, equipment footprint, operating simplicity, and return on investment.
Expanding GWEIKE’s Tube Laser Cutting Portfolio
The introduction of the TG-E Series expands GWEIKE’s tube laser cutting portfolio with a compact and cost-effective option for routine production. While our heavy-duty systems are developed for large profiles and demanding structural applications, the TG-E serves manufacturers that process common tube sizes and require better material utilization, a smaller installation footprint, and straightforward daily operation.
With a 30 mm minimum remnant, a 30% reduction in floor-space requirements, stable dual-chuck final cutting, and intelligent bus control, the TG-E brings together the functions that matter most in economical tube fabrication.
At GWEIKE, we will continue to develop laser-processing equipment around the real production challenges faced by our customers. The TG-E Series represents our commitment to making efficient tube laser cutting accessible to a wider range of manufacturers.
