Equipment
Our equipment can handle a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials that include mild steel, stainless steel, tool steel, pre-finished surfaces (e.g. galvanized or zinc coated steel), aluminium and a range of super-alloys such as titanium. A maximum sheet size of 3000 mm. x 1500 mm. can be handled with thickness of material that range from the very lightest gauge to 15 mm mild steel, 12mm stainless steel and 6mm aluminium.

There are many laser shops that can provide a cutting or marking service on a 'flat-in, flat-out' arrangement but if further work is required to form or fabricate the component, additional sub-contractors have to be found. A fully equipped fabrication shop as such we are able to offer a choice of either 'flat-cut parts' or a complete service from design concept to finished product.

Efficiency And Economy
Rapid cutting speeds, quality of finish and efficient use of materials make the modern CO2 laser an extremely cost effective alternative to the more conventional punch-tool method of sheet metal working. In many cases it can completely eliminate the need for expensive and time-consuming development of tooling. Automated sheet nesting of parts and optimized tool path settings can ensure the most efficient use of materials and the most economical piece part price.

Accuracy
Laser cutting is extremely accurate with consistent repeatability and frequently used to produce the most complex profiles. Tolerances of +/- 0.2mm are normal but can vary with material thicknesses and design detail.
