Laser Cutting
What is Laser Cutting?
Laser cutting is similar to older plasma cutting methods, but is much more
precise and uses less energy to cut the material. Laser cutting is fast
becoming the method of choice for all but the thickest materials, which
are still best shaped with a plasma cutter or other device. Laser cutting is a time and
cost effective alternative to traditional machining. The use of a high powered laser to
remove material through a combination of melting, burning, and vaporizing
offers substantial flexibility in design as well as increased speed and
reduced cost when compared to traditional machining techniques. Laser
cutting can reduce or eliminate machining on many jobs allowing for faster
production and reduced manufacturing costs. This is exceptionally beneficial
in the field of prototyping and small run jobs. A laser cutter has a much
tighter level of precision because it�s only limitation is the thickness of
the beam that is cutting. The accuracy is far more consistent from part to
part too as there are no parts to wear down during the cutting process. The
use of a programmable controller, especially with a laser setup like our 6-axis
cutter, also allows for complex shapes that traditionally would have required
special tooling and a lengthy setup and cut time. Our software allows our lasers
to cut flat steel, tube steel and a variety of complex work pieces while maintaining
quality edges even with small diameter cuts and complex detailed parts.
