Intelligent sheet steel processing with Bystronic Machines, software and automation of the future
We process all types of steel More efficient cutting processes for more profit
Our machines at Bystronic make no distinction as to what type of steel is involved. We can process any type. Both large and small series are possible.
If required, our experts will work with you to develop an application tailored to your needs.
Do you have questions about sheet steel processing with Bystronic? We will be happy to help you.
Sheet steel processing with laser cutting machines
Our laser cutting machines offer precise and reliable sheet steel processing thanks to their optimized cutting process. You benefit from an impressive cutting speed and an intelligent and innovative design.
With Bystronic you can cut sheet thicknesses from 0.8 - 30 mm. Selected models also allow 50 mm. The sheet dimensions that can be processed range from 3000 x 1500 mm to 12 x 2.5 m.
Rough or uneven surfaces can impair cutting quality. The surface quality of the steel must therefore be taken into consideration before the machining process. Our Smart Features support you in achieving the best results. You get precise results which you can rely on:
- Intelligent Cutting Process (ICP): This is a new function in which a coaxial camera films through the nozzle of the fiber laser. This gives you a direct insight into the cutting process.
- Parameter Wizard: This option determines the perfect parameters for steel from 4 to 15 mm with N2 and MixGas within a few minutes.
Tube processing with tube lasers
Accelerate your tube laser business with a laser power of up to 4 kW. You can also increase the:
- Accuracy
- User-friendliness
- Fully automatic setup of all profiles, including open and elliptical tubes
- Quality and performance in your production
You can also process the following profiles: O ◻ ▯ ⬭ U C L -.
Processing of tubes with lengths from 6000 to a maximum of 12500 mm is possible without any problems, as ones with cross-sections from 10 to 323.9 mm.
Sheet metal bending with press brakes
Bystronic offers a wide range of press brakes from entry-level to high-performance, for complex bending processes. They can handle sheet thicknesses up to 25 mm.
Our machines are user-friendly. The intuitive software simplifies all process steps and enables convenient bending, even without prior knowledge. In combination with our automation solutions, fully automated production is possible at any time.
There are a variety of steel grades with different properties such as hardness, strength and corrosion resistance. When processingsteel sheet metal, it is important to consider the specific requirements of the respective steel grade to achieve optimal results. With our Smart Features, we ensure that you can bend any type of steel:
- LAMS: The optical angle measuring system is based on lasers and cameras. It uses the sensors to support the bending accuracy of the machines and automatically corrects all deviations that can lead to angular errors.
- Curve Generator: Based on a series of variables, it creates a bending curve. This helps the machine to always approach the same position and bend at the perfect angle. This way, you receive reliable results for every part.

More sustainability with Bystronic
Bystronic’s sustainability strategy is based on three pillars:
- Optimizing our own sustainability practices
- Promoting sustainability among our customers.
- Helping to shape a more responsible future for our industry.
That is why we are researching and supporting the use of green steel. It has the same properties as conventional steel but is produced without carbon dioxide emissions. This sustainable sheet steel can be processed with all our machines.
Green steel at Naratek: The revolution in sheet steel processing
"The steel industry is estimated to be responsible for 7 to 8 % of global CO2 emissions. By switching reduction process of iron-ore from using coal to using green hydrogen, the CO2 emmissions can be reduced by almost 90 %."
