FAQ's

Laser cutting is a method of metal cutting that uses a high-powered laser to vaporise and cut metal. Laser Cutting is most commonly used for industrial applications, but can also be used to create bespoke laser etching and engraving. 

Laser cutting involves focusing a laser beam through a lens onto the material to be cut. The intense heat of the laser beam melts or vaporizes the material along the desired cutting path, creating a narrow kerf. Computer-controlled movements guide the laser beam, allowing for intricate and precise cuts.

A multitude of materials can be laser cut to suit a range of purposes and applications, including a range of metals.

There are several advantages to using laser cutting, some of which include:

• Cuts non-ferrous materials easily

• Rapid turn around

• Can cut through metals up to 16 mm thick Capable of cutting highly-detailed and precise shapes

• The costs of laser cutting can vary greatly depending upon certain factors, including materials, the time required for cutting, level of detail, delivery, and labour.

• The kerf of a laser cutting machine is considerably thinner than the kerf of a sawblade, so is therefore capable of extremely detailed and refined cutting when compared to other methods of material cutting; with a cutting tolerance of +-0.25mm.
