Overview: How CNC Laser Cutting works?

The Basics Of CNC Laser Cutting

Laser cutting generates the first 2D flat of the sheet metal fabrication. Turnaround time for laser cutting is faster than punching, saving you time on shorter runs, and is more precise and consistent cut than mechanical cutting.


CNC laser cutting produces consistent clean edges to the most exacting tolerances. It is a flexible, versatile manufacturing solution for fabricating parts with complex geometries that require distortion-free finishes.

Features of CNC Laser Cutting

Advantages
Fast and Repeatable
Quick removal of large amounts of metal material, parts ready as fast as 1 day.
Strength & Durability
High-performance plastics like PA/PC/ULTEM are ideal for applications that require resistance of certain aspects.
Accuracy
We use the most advanced industrial FDM 3D printers with tolerances of +/- 0.004” or +/- 0.002” per inch, whichever is greater.
Turnaround
FDM parts do not require tooling which reduces the manufacturing lead time from weeks to days, allowing for faster innovation and speed to market.
Geometry
With dissolvable supports(industrial-level only), interlocking and complex structures are easy to be achieved.
End Production
FDM is capable of producing end-use parts on-demand to boost your marketing by customization.
Drawbacks
Surface Quality
Extruding material layer-by-layer,the surface has layer lines and fine details cannot be realized
Scale Effect
The unit cost and lead time will not be reduced as much as casted or molded parts.
