Lehnen Industrial designed and built a machine that is able to cut tubing from 6mm to 1.5 inch diameter accurately and consistently to a programmable length. The tube cutter is fully automated and does not require the use of any lubricant in the process.
The machine has demonstrated the ability to complete upwards of 10,000 cuts without replacing the blade.
**Lehnen Industrial Services, Inc. holds patents on this technology.**
