How much does the Penta Laser NLT 12036V cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Penta Laser NLT 12036V 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 Penta Laser NLT 12036V belongs to the NLT series, which Penta Laser sells as its three-chuck laser tube cutting machine for structural sections. The clamping diameter range is 30 - 350 mm (1.2 - 13.8 in), one piece may weigh up to 1,200 kg (2,646 lb), and the machine loads and unloads 12 m lengths.
A shop choosing between the NLT and the four-chuck NLF will find the tables close. The NLF 12036V clamps 20 - 360 mm (0.8 - 14.2 in) with the same 1,200 kg limit, the same 65 m/min linear speed and the same 70 r/min main chuck. The choice therefore comes down to chuck arrangement and to the smallest tube, which the NLF 12036V grips from 20 mm and this machine from 30 mm.
What the NLT cuts is set out in the maker's own list: round, rectangular and square tubes, H-beams, I-beams, channel steel and angle steel. It supports perpendicular and oblique intersecting ends, concentric and eccentric intersecting holes, and oblique end faces on round tube.
Rotary travel is continuous and chuck control is full travel with a square hole. Laser power, positioning accuracy and machine dimensions are not in the published table. Ask for them, and ask how the three chucks hand a 12 m member along the bed, because that decides how short the last remnant can be.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Clamping diameter range of 30 - 350 mm (1.2 - 13.8 in) with pieces of up to 1,200 kg (2,646 lb)
- Loads and unloads 12 m lengths
- Main chuck speed of 70 r/min, against 40 r/min on the NLT 12050V
- Linear axes position at 65 m/min on X, Y and Z
- Cuts H-beams, I-beams, channel steel and angle steel in addition to tube
Limitations
- Smallest clamping diameter is 30 mm; the NLF 12036V starts at 20 mm
- Maximum diameter of 350 mm (13.8 in) is short of the 508 mm of the NLT 12050V
- No laser power or accuracy rows in the published table
- The feature list describes cutting functions only and names no loading system

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It clamps diameters of 30 - 350 mm (1.2 - 13.8 in) and takes a maximum tube weight of 1,200 kg (2,646 lb) per piece. The maximum loading length and the maximum unloading length are each 12 m.
02
The NLT is the three-chuck series and the NLF the four-chuck series. The NLF 12036V lists a clamping range of 20 - 360 mm (0.8 - 14.2 in), slightly wider at both ends than the 30 - 350 mm here. Weight per piece, linear speed and main chuck speed are the same.
03
Penta Laser lists intersecting holes with varied orientations and diameters, intersecting ends on tube ends that are perpendicular or oblique, oblique end face cutting on round tubes, intersecting ends for branch pipes on circular main pipes, and 360° flip cutting of square tube.
04
The main chuck rotary speed is 70 r/min and the rotary axis travel is continuous rotation. The linear axes position at up to 65 m/min. The larger NLT 12050V turns its main chuck at 40 r/min.
