QH-GZ Zero-tailing Laser Tube Cutting Machine Weldseam Identification Horizontally-mounted Lathe

Horizontal Lathe Stabilization Boosts Weldseam Identification Precision: Unlike vertical lathes that cause long tubes (e.g., 6500mm) to sag, the horizontally-mounted lathe holds tubes in a straight, fixed horizontal position. This ensures the weldseam sensor maintains a consistent distance from the tube surface, detecting seams with ±0.03mm accuracy—critical for thick-walled tubes (20-25mm) where even 0.1mm misalignment can break weld joints.​

Continuous Weldseam Tracking for Long Tubes: The horizontal lathe’s synchronized rotation and linear feeding (paired with 100m/min max linkage speed) let the weldseam system track seams continuously across 5500-6500mm tubes. No need to stop and reposition the tube mid-process—this reduces weldseam identification downtime by 50% vs. segmented processing, and ensures uniform cutting quality along the entire seam.​

Versatile Weldseam Detection Across Tube Types: The horizontal lathe’s adjustable clamping jaws (for round/square tubes) and the weldseam system’s adaptive algorithms work in tandem: for round tubes, the lathe’s coaxial rotation keeps the seam centered for detection; for square tubes, it aligns tube edges to avoid seam obstruction. This eliminates the need for specialized fixtures for different tube shapes, expanding weldseam identification compatibility while cutting setup time by 40%.​

Zero-Tailing + Precise Seam Identification = Material Efficiency: The machine’s zero-tailing design (≤5mm waste) works with accurate weldseam identification to maximize material use: it cuts tubes right up to the seam edge without leaving excess, and avoids wasting material due to seam misjudgment. For high-volume production (e.g., 100+ 6m tubes/day), this reduces material costs by 25%-30% compared to machines with poor seam detection.
