Efficient | material-conscious | automatic
A small-tube production system designed to minimise repeated handling and material loss.
Q0 Pro is intended for manufacturers processing recurring small-tube batches where automatic feeding, predictable clamping and reduced leftover material can deliver a practical productivity advantage. The correct configuration should be chosen around the real tube range, surface-finish expectations, cut features and production volume.
Maximum material utilisation
A published minimum tail-material reference of 55mm is intended to reduce leftover stock and lower material cost across repeat production.
No routine manual loading adjustment
Servo-controlled clamping and the automatic loading system are designed to support stable, hands-free feeding once the production run is prepared.
Fully automatic loading
Load bundled small tube and maintain a more continuous cutting cycle.
The Q0 Pro loading system is designed to select, transfer and clamp suitable round, square and rectangular tubes automatically. World Machinery currently describes stable loading in 20 seconds and long periods of non-stop feeding, subject to tube straightness, size, surface condition, bundle presentation and the selected loader configuration.
Bundle material on the rack
Present suitable stock in the loading arrangement specified for the tube size, shape, length and surface-finish requirement.
Automatic selection and transfer
The loader separates and advances a tube into the clamping system without repeated manual intervention.
Continuous feed for repeat batches
An established production recipe can support longer unattended feed cycles, subject to stock quality and process validation.
Fixed-diameter pneumatic collets
Clamp small tubes accurately while protecting the visible tube surface.
Q0 Pro uses fixed-diameter chuck collets intended to provide stable positioning without scratching suitable tube surfaces. Bodor describes a five-minute collet-replacement structure and several collet sets for different tube shapes and sizes. Confirm the included collets and supported range in the written UK specification.
Stable pneumatic clamping
High repeat precision supports consistent tube positioning during feeding and rotation.
Surface-conscious handling
The fixed-diameter collet arrangement is designed to reduce marking on suitable finished tube surfaces.
Five-minute replacement reference
Bodor publishes a five-minute collet-change reference; actual changeover depends on the supplied collet set and operator procedure.
Superior dynamic performance
High chuck speed, rapid feed and 1.5G acceleration for compact tube production.
The Q0 Pro uses servo-controlled clamping rollers that adjust the spacing between roller rows. World Machinery publishes maximum references of 180r/min chuck speed, 120m/min feed speed and 1.5G acceleration. Actual cutting time depends on tube geometry, piercing, features, material, wall thickness and the selected laser source.

These are manufacturer or current-page maximum references, not guaranteed cutting-cycle results for every material or part. Confirm the quoted build and representative application performance before ordering.
Control, clamping and material utilisation
Functions developed around repeat small-tube production.
The benefit of each function depends on the tube range and production mix. World Machinery can review stock shape, size, wall thickness, weld seam, surface finish, feature density, required tail length and loading strategy before specification.
Tube controlBodorThinker tube system
Import compatible 3D drawings using the published IGS workflow and use the tube-control environment to reduce repeated manual programming steps.
Material saving55mm short tail-material reference
The published short-tail workflow is intended to retain more usable stock and reduce the material left after the final component in the nest.
Chuck systemFixed-diameter collet sets
Different fixed-diameter collets support selected round, square, rectangular, waist-shaped and elliptical tubes, subject to supplied tooling.
Automatic handlingContinuous small-tube loading
The automatic loader supports repeat feeding without routine manual tube placement once the stock and production run are correctly prepared.
Focus controlAuto-focus laser head
The current World Machinery page describes automatic focus adjustment to improve piercing setup, cutting quality and process safety.
Small-tube productionRound, square and rectangular stock
The standard loading scope should be confirmed for the specific tube geometry and collet set; specialist shapes may require alternative tooling or handling.
Q0 Pro planning and technical references
Use the current graphics as a starting point, then confirm the exact UK configuration.

The Q0 Pro is a small-tube laser cutting machine focused on automatic loading, high-speed rotation and low tail-material loss. It is suited to repeat production of suitable round, square, rectangular and selected shaped tubes.
What loading range does the Q0 Pro support?
The current World Machinery page references 16–60mm automatic loading, while Bodor’s current manufacturer page references standard automatic loading for round, square and rectangular tubes from 20mm to 60mm. The exact UK loader and tube range must therefore be confirmed in writing.
How fast are the chuck and feed system?
The current product information publishes maximum references of 180r/min chuck rotation, 120m/min feed or loading speed and 1.5G acceleration. Actual cutting-cycle performance depends on material, wall thickness, part geometry, piercing and configuration.
How short can the final tail material be?
Bodor publishes a minimum tail-material reference of 55mm. The result depends on tube geometry, clamping, nest layout, part length and the selected process, so representative stock should be reviewed.
Which tube shapes can the Q0 Pro process?
The current product information identifies round, square and rectangular tubes, while fixed-diameter collet options are also shown for waist-shaped and elliptical profiles. The included collet sets and dimensional range should be confirmed before order.
How quickly can the chuck collets be changed?
Bodor publishes a five-minute replacement reference for the fixed-diameter collets. Actual changeover depends on the supplied tooling, operator procedure and production setup.
Can the Q0 Pro import 3D tube drawings?
The current World Machinery page describes importing compatible 3D drawings through an IGS workflow in the BodorThinker tube system. Software versions, file preparation and supported geometry should be confirmed during application review.
What UK support does World Machinery provide?
World Machinery can support application review, cutting trials, site preparation, installation, commissioning, operator training and ongoing UK service support. Finance options can also be discussed for eligible businesses.
