Abstract
A laser tube cutting machine for the cutting processing of tubes with a workpiece moving device, which receives the tube and moves it relative to a push-through device supporting the tube, which is guided by clamping jaws of the push-through device. A laser machining device is associated with the push-through device and has a processing head which directs a laser beam emerging from the processing head onto the tube. A tool of a processing device mechanical processes the tube, which tool is moveable in at least one direction of movement relative to the tube. At least one counterholder is movable into a working position for abutting against the tube, which counterholder acts in the opposite direction to the direction of application of force of the tool.
