Laser cutting is a highly versatile fabrication method that employs a high-powered laser to cut custom designs into a wide range of metals. When used for the manufacture of metal parts, it offers a number of advantages, including:
Low costs: The laser cutting process does not require the creation and use of custom cutting tools for each product design, which allows for significant savings in regard to long-term equipment investment for production operations. Additionally, the precision afforded by the process allows individual designs to be placed closer on the workpiece, resulting in less material waste and lower overall material usage.
Smooth finishes Laser cutting produces parts with high quality edges, meaning the cut sides require little to no cleaning, treating and/or finishing work.
High accuracy Our laser cutting machines employ CNC controls and software. This quality ensures greater consistency during part production from one piece to another and between different batches.
Quick operations Since the laser cutting process does not employ custom tooling, the time between initial request and delivery is often significantly shorter.
