How much does the Penta Laser WPB 6028 / 9028 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Penta Laser WPB 6028 / 9028 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
Tube up to Ф260 mm and 60 kg/m is the limit of the Penta Laser WPB 6028 / 9028, the larger of the two dual-chuck columns in Penta Laser's WPB series. Square tube runs from 20 × 20 to 260 × 260 mm. Laser power is 3 - 6 kW.
Placed beside the WPB 6025 / 9025, everything that describes motion is identical: 90 m/min on the linear axis, 100 rpm on the rotational axis, 6.5 m of loading length with 9.5 m optional, and 3.0 / 4.5 m of unloading length. The larger column simply opens the chucks wider and raises the bearing capacity above the 45 kg/m of the WPB 6025 / 9025. Since it loses no speed for that, the reason to pick the smaller one would have to lie outside the published table.
The chucks are pneumatic square chucks. Penta Laser describes them as precision units with high sealing and a wide gripping range. Square chucks grip rectangular and square profiles on their flats, and the series is also listed for oval and certain special-shaped tubes.
Safety equipment is part of the base specification: full enclosure, guardrails, light curtains, door locks and a safety PLC. Buyers in North America should note that UL standards compliance appears under optional configurations. So do the bevel module, weld seam recognition and the bundle loading system.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Profile range up to Ф260 mm round and 260 × 260 mm square
- Bearing capacity of 60 kg/m, up from 45 kg/m on the WPB 6025 / 9025
- No speed penalty for the larger size: 90 m/min linear and 100 rpm rotational
- Pneumatic square chucks with high sealing and a wide gripping range
- Residual waste is conveyed out automatically during the cycle
Limitations
- Laser power is 3 - 6 kW, the same as the smaller WPB column, so the extra tube size does not come with extra power
- Unloading length of 3.0 / 4.5 m limits the length of a finished part
- UL standards compliance and the bevel module are optional configurations
- 9.5 m loading length is optional; the standard figure is 6.5 m

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Profile range and bearing capacity. The WPB 6028 / 9028 cuts Ф20 - 260 mm and 20 × 20 - 260 × 260 mm at up to 60 kg/m. The WPB 6025 / 9025 cuts Ф20 - 230 mm and 20 × 20 - 230 × 230 mm at up to 45 kg/m. Speeds, lengths and laser power are the same.
02
The table lists 3 - 6 kW. No cutting thickness chart is published with it, so match the power to your wall thickness and material with Penta Laser before ordering.
03
The maximum loading length is 6.5 m as standard and 9.5 m as an option. The unloading length is listed as 3.0 / 4.5 m. Servo-driven follow-up supports carry the tube on the loading side.
04
Penta Laser lists multi-level safety: a full enclosure, light curtains, guardrails, safety door locks and a safety PLC. The series complies with Directive 2006/42/EC. UL standards compliance is an optional configuration.
