How to Order Laser-Cut Tube
To manufacture your custom metal tube design, we'll need a 3D model of the part. If you already know how to make a 3D model, just upload it on our website at app.oshcut.com. If you need more details, read on!
Here's how to do it in a nutshell:
- Choose a tube profile for your design. Options are listed in our material catalog. From there, you can download a DXF of each profile as a starting place.
- Use your favorite CAD software to extrude the profile and then cut holes and other shapes you'd like the laser to remove.
- Export your model in one of our supported formats. STEP is very commonly available.
- Upload your 3D model at app.oshcut.com, select your material, and get your instant prices.
