A machine for variable color-coding and variable length cutting of tubes dynamically and on demand is described. The machine preferably includes a tube feeder for moving tubing through the system, a color-coding unit for applying a desired color code to the moving tube, a cutting unit and a programmable control unit. The programmable control unit which operates the color-coding and the cutting units uses a known speed at which the tube is moving through the system to compute the times at which to activate and deactivate those units and thereby generate tubes having the desired color-codes and lengths.
