SOCO 2D Fiber Tube Lasers: SLT-80, SLT-102 & SLT-152
SOCO 2D fiber tube lasers cut holes, slots, notches and end profiles in round, square, rectangular and oval tube in one automatic setup, replacing separate sawing, drilling and notching. The lineup runs from the compact SLT-80 to the SLT-102 and SLT-152, all sold and supported by Tube Form Solutions.

Choosing a 2D Tube Laser
A 2D tube laser cuts profiles, holes, slots and end shapes with the beam square to the tube wall. It covers most frame, furniture and fabrication work. Pick the model by your largest tube and your volume:
- SLT-80-FIBER: compact, fully automatic, 12–80 mm OD, for small-diameter work
- SLT-102: the mid-range workhorse for general fabrication
- SLT-152: larger diameters and heavier walls
When parts need beveled edges for weld prep, look at the SOCO 3D tube laser.
Why Replace Saws and Drills With a Tube Laser?
A tube laser replaces sawing, drilling, punching and notching with one programmed operation. Holes and notches are located from the same datum in one setup, so parts fit up for welding without rework. Changeovers happen in software, and nesting cuts scrap on expensive tube.
Frequently Asked Questions
What shapes can a SOCO 2D tube laser cut?
Round, square, rectangular and flat oval tube. Some models also cut open profiles, so check the specs for each model.
What does the SLT-80-FIBER handle?
12–80 mm OD tube with walls up to 4 mm mild steel and 2 mm stainless and aluminum, using a 1.5 kW fiber source.
Can a tube laser feed my bender?
Yes. Laser-cut tube with notches and holes can go straight to bending, and we can build both into one automation cell.
