SigmaTUBE®

Tube Cutting Software

A complete tube and pipe cutting software supporting round, square, rectangular, or triangular tube/pipe along with structural material such as I-beams, H-beams, C-channel, angle iron, and other user-defined shapes. Custom programs are available to fully maximize the advanced features of Mazak FabriGear, Trumpf, BLM, Bystronic, Amada and Other 3D tube and pipe cutting laser machines.
  • Complex programming made EASY
  • Faster turn-around time for orders
  • Optimized material usage and machine performance
  • No separate CAM system required
  • SigmaTUBE generates NC code without exporting assemblies or parts from SOLIDWORKS. In addition a wide variety of popular or neutral SolidCAD file formats are also supported. In addition, SigmaTUBE contains its own library of standard shapes.
