How much does the HSG R2 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the HSG R2 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
The HSG R2 is the plain dual-chuck machine in the middle of HSG's tube range. It takes round tube from Φ12 to 240 mm (9.4 in) and square tube up to 240 × 240 mm, in lengths from 1,000 to 6,500 mm (39.4-255.9 in), with a single tube weighing up to 300 kg (661 lb). Laser power runs from 3,000 to 6,000 W.
Its motion figures are moderate: 120 m/min maximum linkage speed, 1.2 G linkage acceleration and a chuck rotation speed of 120 r/min. The R2 PRO, which shares the same tube envelope, is listed at 150 m/min and 1.5 G. So the R2 is the choice when the work is mixed structural tube and the last seconds of cycle time are not what pays for the machine. X/Y positioning accuracy is given as ±0.05 mm/m.
Much of what makes a tube laser productive is optional here, and HSG says so directly: the safety guarding, loader, unloader and full enclosure shown in its pictures are options. The follow-up servo support that steadies flat tube during rotation is optional too, as is chuck jumping for short tailings and the WindTech-Loading System that combines multi-tube loading with zero-tail cutting.
Standard on the machine are the triangular truss bed, which HSG describes as heavier and more rigid, and chucks with a copper heat shield and a stainless-steel dust cover. Besides round and square tube, HSG lists L-profile and H-profile among the shapes it cuts.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- One machine covers Φ12 to Φ240 mm (0.5-9.4 in) round tube and square tube up to 240 × 240 mm
- Takes tube from 1,000 to 6,500 mm (39.4-255.9 in) long and up to 300 kg (661 lb) per tube
- X/Y positioning accuracy of ±0.05 mm/m is stated in the table
- Chucks come standard with a copper heat shield and a stainless-steel dust cover
- HSG lists L-profile and H-profile alongside round and square tube
Limitations
- At 120 m/min and 1.2 G it is slower than the R2 PRO, which is listed at 150 m/min and 1.5 G on the same tube sizes
- Loader, unloader, safety guarding and full enclosure are options, per HSG's own note
- Follow-up support for flat tube and chuck jumping for short tailings are both optional
- Raw tube length is limited to 6,500 mm (255.9 in)

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Round tube from Φ12 to Φ240 mm (0.5-9.4 in) and square tube from 12 × 12 to 240 × 240 mm. Tube length runs from 1,000 to 6,500 mm (39.4-255.9 in), and a single tube can weigh up to 300 kg (661 lb). HSG also names L-profile and H-profile.
02
The tube sizes are the same. The difference is dynamics: the R2 is listed at 120 m/min linkage speed, 1.2 G and 120 r/min chuck rotation, while the R2 PRO is listed at 150 m/min, 1.5 G and 140 r/min. Laser power is 3,000-6,000 W on both.
03
No. HSG notes that the loader, unloader, safety guarding and full enclosure shown in its pictures are available as options. The WindTech-Loading System is the combination of multi-tube loading and the zero-tail cutting function, both of which are options.
04
The table states an X/Y-axis positioning accuracy of ±0.05 mm/m. For flat tube, which tends to wobble as it rotates, HSG offers an optional follow-up servo support that stays in sync with the tube position to hold it steady during the cut.
