Fiber Laser Cutting Services
🏭 Industrial Laser Cutting Capabilities
Fiber Lasers: 6kW – 8kW • 3015 & 6015 Series • Typical tolerance ±0.005"
Tube Cutting: Up to Ø8" • Round, square, rectangular • Miters and 3D features
Assist Gases: Nitrogen (cosmetic, non-oxidized edge) • Oxygen (high speed) • Compressed air (cost-optimized)
| Material Type | Thickness Range | Cutting Rate (Guide) | Technical Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mild Steel (HR/CR) Most Popular | up to 1/8" (3 mm) | $0.50 – $0.80 / inch | Clean edge quality with O₂/N₂ assist, minimal dross — ideal for brackets and gussets. |
| Mild Steel (HR/CR) | 1/8" – 1/4" (3–6 mm) | $0.80 – $1.20 / inch | Slight taper possible, O₂ assist, higher gas usage — optimized feed rates. |
| Mild Steel (HR/CR) | 1/4" – 1/2" (6–12 mm) | $1.20 – $2.00 / inch | Reduced speed, higher gas consumption — ideal for structural components. |
| Stainless Steel 304/316 Cosmetic | up to 1/8" (3 mm) | $0.70 – $1.20 / inch | High-pressure N₂, bright edge, no oxidation — food-grade and architectural parts. |
| Stainless Steel 304/316 | 1/8" – 3/8" (3–10 mm) | $1.20 – $2.50 / inch | Higher power and gas demand, excellent edge quality for structural stainless. |
| Aluminum 5052/6061 | up to 1/8" (3 mm) | $0.90 – $1.50 / inch | N₂ only, material must be clean — suitable for panels and light brackets. |
| Aluminum 5052/6061 | 1/8" – 1/4" (3–6 mm) | $1.50 – $2.80 / inch | Slower cutting, attention to heat input — minimal oxide along the edge. |
| Tube & Pipe Cutting | up to Ø 8" | $2.50 – $6.00 / inch | Custom fixturing and 3D cuts (slots, miters, copes) available on request. |
CNC Press Brake Forming
🏭 CNC Bending Capabilities
CNC Press Brakes: 110T & 160T • 8'–10' capacity • Delem & ESA controls
Standard Tolerance: ±0.010" • Precision: up to ±0.005" with bend simulation
Tooling: Standard & custom V-dies from 0.5" to 4" • Radius tooling available.
| Material Type | Thickness Range | Bending Rate (Guide) | Technical Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mild Steel (HR/CR) High Volume | up to 10 Ga (3 mm) | $2.50 – $4.00 / bend | Standard tooling, fast cycle times — perfect for channels, brackets, and flanges. |
| Mild Steel (HR/CR) | 10 Ga – 1/4" (3–6 mm) | $4.00 – $6.00 / bend | Heavier tooling, higher tonnage — suitable for structural parts and frames. |
| Stainless Steel 304/316 | up to 14 Ga (2 mm) | $3.00 – $5.00 / bend | Polished tooling with protection to prevent surface marking. |
| Stainless Steel 304/316 | 14 Ga – 1/8" (2–3 mm) | $5.00 – $8.00 / bend | Precision bending with radius and special tooling as required. |
| Aluminum 5052/6061 | up to 1/8" (3 mm) | $2.00 – $3.50 / bend | Softer material enables faster forming and light tooling loads. |
| Aluminum 5052/6061 | 1/8" – 1/4" (3–6 mm) | $3.50 – $6.00 / bend | Radius tooling and springback compensation for consistent angles. |
