Curious if Ameritex can cut your structural part? 

You’ve come to the right place. We’re reviewing the capabilities of our saw cutting and[tube laser cutting services](https://ameritex.com/blog/3-design-tips-for-tube-laser-cutting-services/?hsLang=en-us) in today’s blog and providing you with a quick reference guide to keep in your back pocket (or bookmarked on your internet browser). 

## What Is a Structural Part? 

When people think about structural parts, some think of angle, beam or channel, while others think of tubing, pipe or other profiles. At Ameritex, we consider structural processing to include all of the above. We routinely cut structural parts with many different profiles, including angles, channels, W-beams, pipe, flat bar, and custom extrusions. You may hear us use the name “tube laser” or “structural laser” interchangeably, just know they can process linear profiles of all types!

## Saw Cutting and Tube Laser Cutting Services for Structural Parts 

We offer both saw cutting and [tube laser cutting](https://ameritex.com/blog/6-surprising-facts-about-tube-laser-cutting/?hsLang=en-us) services at our Texas facility. (If you haven’t already, [check out what our brand new LT8.20 tube laser cutter can do](https://ameritex.com/blog/improving-capabilities-with-our-new-lt8-20-tube-laser-cutter/?hsLang=en-us)!)

During the saw cutting process, a blade consisting of small teeth moves across the surface of the material to remove chips of metal. It is extremely efficient for simple cuts that go all the way across the profile. Tube laser cutting involves using a laser and assist gas to melt and remove material as required.

Saw cutters are incapable of achieving the unlimited number of shapes and features that a tube laser can cut, so when your part has more than just an angular cut on the end, the tube laser is likely the correct process.
