Project Overview
Client Location: Bursa, Turkey
Industry: Modern Commercial & Home Furniture Manufacturing
Target Material: D-Shaped Profile Steel Tubes (Special-shaped tubing)
Application: High-precision D-shaped tubular chair legs
Machine Model: LONX LASER LX-K9 Fiber Laser Tube Cutting Machine
Core Results: 40% increase in daily production output, zero secondary deburring required, and 100% clamping stability on asymmetrical profiles.
A leading furniture OEM in Bursa, Turkey, experienced severe bottlenecks when expanding its new line of modern office and dining chairs. The core design relied heavily on D-shaped tubular chair legs to achieve a sleek, ergonomic aesthetic.
Processing special-shaped profiles—specifically D-tubes—presented major traditional manufacturing hurdles:
Clamping Slippage & Deformation: Conventional mechanical saws and standard pneumatic chucks failed to grip the asymmetrical D-profile securely, leading to tube deformation and angular inaccuracies.
Slow Multi-Process Bottlenecks: Drilling screw holes, beveling joint angles, and cutting lengths required three separate manual setups, inflating labor costs and error margins.
Severe Surface Scratching: Traditional feeding systems scratched the pre-finished metal surfaces, requiring costly manual polishing before powder coating.
"We needed a high-precision tube laser cutting machine for D-shaped tubular chair legs that could handle non-standard profiles seamlessly without changing chuck jaws for every production batch."

The Solution: LONX LASER K9 Tube Laser Cutting Machine
To overcome these challenges, LONX LASER deployed the K9 Series Fiber Laser Tube Cutting Machine, engineered specifically for high-speed, multi-profile industrial applications.
| Feature / Spec | LONX LASER K9 Capabilities | Benefit for D-Shaped Tube Processing |
| Special-Shaped Tube Chucks | Intelligent Self-Centering Pneumatic Chucks | Automatically adapts to D-shaped, oval, and square profiles without manual jaw adjustments. |
| All-in-One Processing | Cutting, Hole Punching, Beveling & Slotting in One Pass | Replaces 3 traditional machines, drastically shortening manufacturing cycles. |
| Non-Marking Feeding | Polymer Support Rollers & Soft-Touch Grippers | Eliminates surface scratches on delicate chair leg tubing. |
| 3D Tube Nesting Software | Real-time path optimization and material yield maximization | Reduces tube scrap rates by up to 15%. |
Since installing the LONX LASER K9 in Turkey, the client’s production capacity for tubular furniture components has scaled significantly:
Production Output: Daily output of D-shaped tubular chair legs increased by 40%.
Edge Quality: Smooth, burr-free cuts allow immediate welding and assembly, bypassing secondary grinding.
Accuracy: Cutting precision maintained within ±0.1mm, ensuring perfect alignment during chair assembly.
ROI Window: Full machine ROI projected within 11 months due to reduced labor and material waste.
Whether you produce D-shaped tubular chair legs, oval desk frames, or complex structural architectural piping, the LONX LASER K9 provides the speed, versatility, and precision required for modern metal fabrication.
