New HSG R2 3-6 kW CNC Tube and Pipe Laser Cutting Machine

<h2>General-purpose CNC tube and pipe laser cutting</h2> <p>The <strong>HSG R2</strong> is a configurable 3-6 kW <strong>tube laser cutting machine</strong> for round, square, rectangular and selected structural profiles. This two-chuck CNC tube laser handles round or square material from approximately 0.47 to 9.45 in, supports up to 661 lb per tube and reaches up to 394 ft/min linkage speed with 1.2G acceleration.</p> <p>For fabricators that currently saw tube to length and then move it through separate drilling, milling, punching, coping or notching operations, the R2 can combine multiple features in one programmed setup and produce parts that are closer to welding or assembly ready.</p> <h2>What the R2 can process</h2> <ul> <li>Round tube and pipe</li> <li>Square and rectangular tubing</li> <li>Selected L-, H- and other profiles when the supports, chucks and cutting process are configured for them</li> <li>Cutoffs, holes, slots, tabs, notches, miters, fishmouths and connection features</li> <li>Carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum and other compatible metals based on laser power, wall thickness and process setup</li> </ul> <p>Standard and extended-length R2 configurations are available, with raw-material ranges of approximately 3.28-21.33 ft or 3.28-29.53 ft. The correct length, loading system and finished-part unloading arrangement should be selected around the customer's actual material.</p> <h2>A practical replacement for several conventional operations</h2> <p>A tube laser does more than cut material to length. By creating holes, slots and joining features in the same cycle, the R2 can reduce measuring, fixtures, manual layout and part transfers between machines. That makes it a strong fit for trailer and transportation components, agricultural equipment, furniture and fitness frames, handrail and guardrail, racks, general weldments and high-mix tube fabrication.</p> <p>The business case depends on annual volume, labor content, setup time, scrap and downstream welding. MacLean can review representative parts and compare the R2 against your current saw, drill, mill or coping process.</p> <h2>Intelligent cutting and material handling</h2> <p>HSG's R2 platform includes automatic tube-center measurement, tube support and cutting functions intended to improve consistency across normal material variation. Corner anti-burn and short-tail strategies can help improve finished-part quality and material utilization. Optional automatic loading and long-part unloading can reduce manual handling and keep the machine producing for longer periods.</p> <h2>Choose the right R-series configuration</h2> <p>The listing covers the R2 model family rather than a single fixed machine. Final decisions include 3 or 6 kW laser power, standard or extended material length, loader style, finished-part unloading, cutting-head configuration, software and profile requirements. If bevels or unusual open profiles are required, include them with the inquiry so HSG and MacLean can confirm the proper head, chuck and support package.</p> <h2>Availability, installation and nationwide support</h2> <p>Equipt shows one R2 available for sale. HSG's April 2026 U.S. stock sheet listed a 6 kW extended-length R2 configuration in transit; actual warehouse status and lead time must be reconfirmed when quoted. Other R2 configurations may ship from U.S. inventory or be built to order.</p> <p>MacLean Machinery is an authorized HSG distributor for the entire United States, with a primary sales and service focus on Georgia, Florida and the Greater Southeast. Installation and operator training are included. Our HSG factory-trained technicians directly perform service and repairs and coordinate with HSG's U.S. technical team when necessary.</p> <h2>Warranty</h2> <p>A warranty is included with every R2 system. Coverage depends on the exact machine, laser source, cutting head and configuration; the final warranty terms are provided in writing with the quote.</p> <h2>Frequently asked questions</h2> <h3>What size tube can the HSG R2 cut?</h3> <p>The published range is approximately 0.47-9.45 in for round tube and 0.47 x 0.47-9.45 x 9.45 in for square tube. Rectangular and other profiles are evaluated by their overall size, shape and clamping requirements.</p> <h3>Can it cut 20- or 30-foot material?</h3> <p>Yes, depending on the selected version. Standard configurations handle material up to approximately 21.33 ft, while extended R2-90 configurations handle material up to approximately 29.53 ft.</p> <h3>Can the R2 replace sawing and drilling?</h3> <p>For many parts, yes. It can cut to length and add holes, slots, copes and other features in one CNC process. Some machining or finishing may still be required depending on tolerance and feature requirements.</p> <h3>Is automatic loading available?</h3> <p>Yes. Automatic raw-material loading and finished-part unloading options can be configured around tube size, length, weight and production volume.</p> <h3>Can the R2 cut bevels?</h3> <p>Bevel requirements must be reviewed during configuration. Provide the angle, wall thickness, profile and weld-preparation requirement so the correct cutting-head option can be confirmed.</p> <h2>Start the conversation</h2><p><strong>Call 770-934-6500</strong> to start the conversation, or use the Request Quote form on this page.
