GENERAL INFORMATION
Laser cutting is a precision fabrication process that uses a focused laser beam to cut or engrave materials. It produces clean, accurate cuts with minimal heat distortion and is ideal for both simple and complex geometries.
3D laser cutting extends traditional flat-sheet laser cutting by allowing cuts on formed, bent, or tubular components. This includes multi-axis laser cutting on 3D surfaces, like pipes, enclosures, structural frames, or pre-welded assemblies.
CAPABILITIES & SPECIFICATIONS
We can cut:
- Metals: Mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper
- Other materials: Some plastics and composites (depending on their laser compatibility)
Typical maximum thicknesses:
- Mild Steel: up to 20mm
- Stainless Steel: up to 15mm
- Aluminum: up to 10mm
(Varies depending on material grade and laser wattage)
Laser cutting offers high precision, with tolerances typically within ±0.1 mm. For 3D laser cutting, tolerances may vary slightly based on part geometry and clamping.
We can process:
- Flat sheets up to 3000mm x 1500mm
- Tubes and profiles up to 6 meters long
- 3D components depending on the machine’s axis reach and fixturing
APPLICATIONS & USE CASES
- Sheet metal parts
- Custom brackets and flanges
- Machine panels
- Signage
- Enclosures and housings
- Precision gaskets and shims
- Tubular structures (e.g., frames, exhaust systems)
- Cut-outs on bent or pre-formed metal parts
- Modifications to welded assemblies
- Complex architectural and automotive components
