How much does the Penta Laser NLF 12050V cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Penta Laser NLF 12050V 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
Heavy members are what the Penta Laser NLF 12050V is for. This four-chuck laser tube cutting machine accepts a single piece of up to 2,000 kg (4,409 lb), clamps diameters of 30 - 508 mm (1.2 - 20.0 in) and handles 12 m on both the loading and the unloading side.
Those two figures, weight and diameter, are where it parts from the NLF 12036V, which is limited to 1,200 kg (2,646 lb) and 360 mm. The trade is rotation speed. Turning a 508 mm section takes more care than turning a small tube, and the main chuck here runs at 40 r/min. Linear positioning is unchanged at 65 m/min on X, Y and Z.
Penta Laser sells the NLF series for structural steel in the broad sense: round, square and rectangular tube, plus H-beams, I-beams, channel and angle steel. The cutting functions it lists are joint preparation work, such as intersecting ends where a branch pipe meets a circular main pipe, intersecting holes that are concentric or eccentric, and oblique end faces.
A few practical points follow from the numbers. A 2,000 kg piece needs a crane or a loading system rated for it. The smallest diameter the chucks hold is 30 mm, so light tube belongs on another machine. And the table says nothing about laser power, so the wall thickness the machine can cut has to be settled with the maker.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Takes single pieces of up to 2,000 kg (4,409 lb), against 1,200 kg (2,646 lb) on the NLF 12036V
- Clamping diameter range reaches 508 mm (20.0 in)
- Four chucks with full travel chuck control on a 12 m loading and unloading length
- Linear axes still position at 65 m/min on X, Y and Z
- Supports intersecting holes, intersecting ends and oblique end faces for pipe joints
Limitations
- Main chuck speed is 40 r/min, slower than the 70 r/min of the NLF 12036V
- The clamping range starts at 30 mm (1.2 in), so small tube cannot be held
- No laser power row is published, which leaves cutting thickness unstated in the table
- Pieces of 2,000 kg need lifting equipment to match at both ends of a 12 m line

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The maximum tube weight per piece is 2,000 kg (4,409 lb). The clamping diameter range is 30 - 508 mm (1.2 - 20.0 in), and the machine loads and unloads lengths of up to 12 m.
02
The table lists 40 r/min for the NLF 12050V and 70 r/min for the NLF 12036V without giving a reason. The larger model rotates stock of up to 508 mm and 2,000 kg, and a heavier, wider section is normally turned more slowly.
03
Yes. Penta Laser states that the NLF series is primarily used for round tubes, rectangular tubes, square tubes, H-beams, I-beams, channel steel, angle steel and other structural steel sections.
04
Four. The chuck control type is listed as full travel with a square hole, and the rotary axis travel is continuous rotation. Four chucks keep a long, heavy member supported near the cutting point along the 12 m length.
