Step 3 - Fabrication
During this stage, we will fabricate your products based on the approved specification, guidelines and timeframes. You will always know exactly what stage your project is in.
Step 4 - Quality Control
Our QC team will inspect the finished materials for defects and ensure that the everything was completed to the original specifications.
Step 5 - Delivery
Optionally, we offer delivery services as well for projects of any size and can ship your fabricated materials via ground, sea or air to any major worldwide destination.
Laser Cutting
Laser cutting is one of the most efficient ways of cutting various metals with a high level of accuracy, and precision cut burr free parts. This will enable increased production times with a greater precision and accuracy, with minimal operator intervention. Our company continuously produces quality parts, at competitive pricing by maximizing productivity, without compromising quality.
Precision Cutting (Laser Fiber Cutting)
Laser cutting is a process which is used to cut sheets of metal with high-level of accuracy. The precision laser cuts through any metal like iron, copper, aluminum or stainless steel with ease. It is widely used in the automotive, aerospace and ceramics industries.
Plasma Cutter vs Laser Cutting
There are two main industrial cutting machines: CNC Plasma Cutter and CNC Laser Cutter.
The Plasma Cutter is used to cut different kinds of metals that lie in the medium thickness range. This machine uses the power of plasma to melt metal sheets in a certain area, but due to warping effect and metal deformation, the results are not always precise.
The Fiber Laser Cutter, modern and more advanced technology, can be used to cut all kinds of materials, including metals, with wide range of thickness and high. This makes laser cutting the go-to method for most of the metal sheet fabrication today.

FAQs
Laser cutting is a method that uses a laser to cut different types of metals into custom designs. The advantages of this technology are high precision and accuracy. Laser cutting is widely used in industries requiring accuracy, such as construction, medical and automotive. In addition, it is used by small businesses, DIYers and schools.
Laser cutting is suitable for projects that require high precision and can be used for thin metals. Waterjet uses high water pressure to cut through metal. Both of these methods can be used for cutting various materials. However, the water jet can be used for cutting thicker materials ranging from 0.4″ to 2.0″.
Plasma cutters use high-temperature gas to cut through metal, while a laser cutter uses a laser beam. A laser provides high precision and is quicker, but it costs more. However, plasma can be used for cutting thicker materials than lasers and is a cost-efficient cutting method.
A laser cutter can be used for various metals, such as non-ferrous metals, mild steel, and stainless steel. The cutting process is very accurate and is perfect for detailed designs. The laser is suitable for cutting through thin metal.
Laser cutting is one of the methods used for cutting sheet metal, coming with a wide range of advantages. Laser cutting is cheaper when compared to other cutting methods. The process includes automation, so the costs for labor are low. In addition, a laser is durable and enhances productivity with the simple process.
- Cost efficiency. Laser cutting comes with lower costs, as the need or labor is reduced due to automation.
- Speedy process. Laser cutting moves with a speed of 20 to 70 inches per minute.
- High precision. Laser is an excellent choice for detailed cuts with smooth edges and precise curves.
