OSH Cut now offers CNC tube bending. As we ramp up the new service, we’ll release to a growing number of customers. Let us know if you are interested in early access below. Combined with laser tube cutting, CNC tube bending gives you a powerful new way to build. While CNC tube bending has been around for a while, it has been time consuming and extremely difficult to order. We are changing that. OSH Cut is the only laser cutting and tube bending supplier that can promise instant prices, instant manufacturability check in your browser, rapid turnarounds, and no minimum order size.
SIGN UP HERECombining tube laser cutting and bending in one service gives you super-powers. Our tube laser can cut precise holes and “fish-mouth” profiles on your tube ends, saving you the time and mess of drilling with a jig. Add precision tube bending and you can get precise parts, bent to spec, quickly and easily.
Why tube bending? And why now?
Tubes make for amazing structures. They’re strong, pre-formed, and fantastic for creating complex geometry. For far too long, the process for obtaining bent tube prototypes has either been expensive, labor intensive, ridiculously time consuming, or simply unavailable. That’s changing now with OSH Cut, and we foresee that this will open up some serious doors for the automotive, robotics, construction, energy, and manufacturing industries.
What sizes/materials will be supported?
We’ll begin by offering steel and stainless steel tubing with diameters of up to 1.5” and then expand from there as we acquire the tooling.
Will I get instant pricing like the other OSH Cut services?
Yes. Our online quoting app will check your design for manufacturability and provide you with instant pricing. Plus, if you don’t already have a 3D file for your bent part, you’ll be able to use our advanced tube configurator to create a production file that passes all DFM checks.
What if I need both laser-cut holes in my parts?
You’ll be able to easily select options for tube cutting and cnc tube bending as part of the same seamless order. Just note that in order to avoid deformation issues, our system won’t allow cutouts within 2 tube diameter lengths of the bend region.
What bend radii will be offered?
To start, we'll have dies that accommodate centerline radii that are twice the tube diameter (so for a 1" tube, we'll have a 2" bend radius).
