EMI EL-SQRD Tube Plasma Cutting System

Our EMI EL-SQRD tube plasma cutter is purpose-built for precision cutting of HSS (Hollow Structural Sections), square and rectangular tube, and pipe. The EL-SQRD cuts holes, slots, copes, and profiles in tube steel — all in a single CNC operation directly from our SDS2 models.

Tube steel is increasingly specified for its architectural appeal and structural efficiency. The EL-SQRD ensures that every connection fits perfectly, whether it's a simple clearance hole or a complex saddle cope for a tube-to-tube moment connection. This capability sets us apart from fabricators limited to beam and plate work.

Tube Expertise That Sets Us Apart

Not every structural fabricator invests in dedicated tube plasma cutting. Our EL-SQRD gives us the ability to take on projects with significant HSS content — from architectural canopies and stair towers to long-span roof trusses and industrial mezzanines. Combined with our in-house detailing, we produce tube steel that fits together seamlessly in the field.
