How much does the Bystronic ByTube Star 130 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc laser cutting machine in this class — not a quote from Bystronic. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Bystronic ByTube Star 130 is a tube laser cutting machine with a 3 kW fiber source. Its capacity is expressed as wall thickness, not sheet thickness: 8 mm in mild steel, 6 mm in stainless steel and 4 mm in aluminium.
Those three limits define the work. Wall thickness on a tube laser decides which structural sections can be processed at all, and the step down from 8 mm in mild steel to 4 mm in aluminium means an aluminium profile programme needs checking section by section. A single 3 kW power level is listed, so there is no higher-power option in these figures to extend the limits.
Control and programming are tube-specific: the control row reads ByVision Tube / BySoft 7 Tube. The listed figures do not include the tube diameter range, the tube length, the loading system or the machine footprint. Those are the next questions for anyone matching the machine to a stock list of tubes and profiles.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
With its 3 kW fiber source the limits are 8 mm in mild steel, 6 mm in stainless steel and 4 mm in aluminium. These are wall thicknesses of the tube or profile, so compare them with the heaviest wall in your stock list.
02
The control row lists ByVision Tube / BySoft 7 Tube. No further control or software functions are given for this model, so ask which programming features come with the quoted machine.
03
The listed figures do not state a tube diameter range or a maximum tube length. They cover laser power (3 kW fiber), the three wall thickness limits and the control. Confirm the diameter and length capacity with Bystronic before matching the machine to your profiles.
