Q: How much does the BLM Group LT24 cost?

The price estimate for the BLM Group LT24 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/blm-group-lt24#price; the request is passed to BLM Group or an authorised dealer.

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the BLM Group LT24 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Overview

For tube up to 24" in diameter, the BLM Group LT24 is the top of the Lasertube range, and the only model in it listed here with a CO2 source: 4 kW, higher on demand. Its work is large steel structures, in wall thicknesses up to 0.9 in (22 mm).

BLM sets the laser against plasma and oxyfuel on this kind of section, and its argument is what happens after the cut. The 3D head chamfers ends and holes, the edges need no rework, and parts go to welding as they come off the machine. Tolerances are held without later adjustment.

Three spindles hold the workpiece. The heavy section is kept from moving while the lighter cutting head travels along it, which BLM credits for both precision and shorter processing times. Diameter, thickness and section changes are automatic, without retooling.

Stock length drives the installation. A bar must be at least 13 ft (4 m) long to load, and the front chain loader is offered for 39 ft (12 m), 50 ft or 59 ft (18 m) bars. The front chain unloader is listed with the same three maximum lengths. BLM's own layout drawing pairs a 12 m loader with a 10 m unloader.

One caution on weight. BLM's pages give conflicting bar weight figures for this model, so none is quoted here. Ask the maker for the rated weight per unit length before planning heavy-wall work, along with the machine weight and power figures that the table omits.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Tube range up to 24" in diameter, with round, square, rectangular, special and open sections
3D head carries out chamfering on ends and holes, leaving edges ready for welding without rework
Three spindles hold the workpiece while the lighter cutting head moves along the tube
Changes of diameter, thickness and section are automatic, with no retooling
Loader and unloader lengths up to 59 ft (18 m)

Limitations

CO2 source rather than fiber: the LT14 FIBER is the fiber alternative for sections within its range
Machinable thickness ends at 0.9 in (22 mm)
Bars under 13 ft (4 m) cannot be loaded
No reliable bar weight, machine weight or power figure is published in the table

Best For

Large steel structures in tube up to 24" in diameter Structural sections that are chamfered for welding Work now cut by plasma or oxyfuel that needs cleaner edges Long stock from 13 ft (4 m) up to 59 ft (18 m)

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How large a tube can the LT24 cut?

The tube range is up to 24" in diameter, and the machinable thickness is max 0.9 in (22 mm). Round, square and rectangular tubes, special sections and open profiles are listed. BLM's pages do not agree on the bar weight limit, so that figure should be confirmed with the maker.

02 What laser does the LT24 use?

The technical table lists a 4 kW CO2 source, with higher power on demand, and a 3D cutting head. That sets it apart from the LT14 FIBER, whose source row reads "5 kW, 6+6 kW (Fiber)".

03 What bar lengths does the LT24 accept?

The minimum loadable length is 13 ft (4 m). Maximum loadable lengths of 39 ft (12 m), 50 ft and 59 ft (18 m) are listed, depending on the loader, and the unloader is offered in the same three maximum lengths. Both are front chain units and fully automatic.

04 Why use a laser instead of plasma or oxyfuel on large sections?

BLM's case rests on part quality and on what follows the cut. Precision stays within the required tolerances with no later adjustment, chamfers on ends and holes are made in the same cycle, and the machined edges do not require rework before welding.

05 How does the LT24 hold such heavy workpieces?

With three spindles. They hold the workpiece and eliminate uncontrolled movements, while the cutting head, which is lighter and faster, moves along the tube. BLM attributes more precise and faster cuts to this arrangement.
