We use two fiber lasers to handle our cutting, a 3kw and 12kw. With these machines we can process a wide variety of metals (no wood or plastics with these machines). Visit our resource page to learn more about the laser cutting process, limitations, & capacities

What is CNC Fiber Laser Cutting?

CNC Fiber Laser Cutting is a process that uses a powerful laser, controlled by a computer (CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control), to cut or mark materials with high precision. The fiber laser produces a concentrated beam that can precisely cut various metals.

Key Benefits

⦁ High Precision: Achieves detailed designs with exact cuts.
⦁ Speed: Faster than many traditional cutting methods.
⦁ Versatility: Can cut a wide range of materials
⦁ Cost-Effective: Minimizes waste and requires less maintenance.
⦁ Clean Edges: Produces smooth cuts, reducing the need for further finishing.

Kerf

In laser cutting, “kerf” refers to the width of the material removed by the laser beam as it cuts. This is important for the accuracy of the part. The kerf varies based on the material that’s being cut and the gas being used.
 Note : You do NOT have to account for kerf. We do that for you before cutting!

Taper

In laser cutting, “taper” refers to the slight angle formed on the edges of the cut material. This typically starts to happen on thicker materials. You can typically expect 0.001″ taper for every 0.1″ in material thickness.

Surface Finish

Surface finish varies by material. But, you can expect a smooth, clean surface finish with minimal burrs and heat-affected zones (HAZ). We typically post-process our parts to eliminate the work you have to do!
