Overview: What is Laser Cutting?
The Basics Of Laser Cutting
CNC laser cutting is a computer-controlled fabrication process that uses high-density light beam to cut parts out of a sheet metal workpiece. The process is controlled by a computer that is guided by pre-uploaded 2D-models. This fabrication process is known for its cost-efficiency and high precision.
Laser Cutters
- CO2 lasers are normally used for the standard production purposes (e.g. for cutting thinner metals)
- Nd and Nd:Yag are more powerful and used to cut thicker sheet metal, but are more expensive in use than CO2 lasers
Tolerances
A standard tolerance level for the majority of CNC laser cutters ranges from 0.1 to 0.2 mm depending on the size and requirements. But tolerance levels may be adjusted to our customer’s requirements.
Size Limitations
Any size, maximal thickness of sheet steel up to 30 mm, and up to 25 mm for aluminium.
