Stainless Steel

Laser Cutting Company offers laser cutting and forming services for stainless steel parts to the OEM and replacement part markets. With over 30 years of experience, we have proven our ability to manufacture custom parts that meet or exceed specifications. We serve a wide range of industries, including the automotive, aerospace, heavy equipment, military, agricultural, medical, and power generation industries.  Stainless steel is a popular metal for laser cut products. It is easy to cut and does not experience work hardening or distortion during forming or laser cutting. Some stainless steel alloys are difficult to die cut, making laser cutting an ideal alternative. Stainless steel can be cut quickly and precisely, up to a thickness of 0.625". Stainless steel laser cut parts are generally dross-free, for a smooth finish.

Aluminum

Laser Cutting Company offers laser cutting and forming services for aluminum parts to the OEM and replacement part markets. We serve a wide range of industries, including the automotive, aerospace, heavy equipment, military, agricultural, medical, and power generation industries.  Aluminum formed and laser-cut parts are strong, lightweight, and corrosion resistant. Due to the reflective nature of the metal, aluminum parts are generally cut with solid state lasers to minimize reflection of the laser beam off the metal. This decreases the effectiveness of the laser beam and increases cutting time. Thin parts are cut with either continuous or pulse laser beams to achieve high accuracy and a precise edge on the part. Thicker parts are cut using sublimation using fiber lasers or short pulse lasers. Both processes use mirror deflection systems to minimize reflection and maximize the efficiency of the laser beam

Spring Steels

Laser Cutting Company offers laser cutting and forming services for Spring Steel parts to the OEM and replacement part markets. We serve a wide range of industries, including the automotive, aerospace, heavy equipment, military, agricultural, medical, and power generation industries.  Parts that are made of spring steel are able to return to their natural state after significant bending or twisting has occurred. Spring steel is a name given to a wide variety of steels with medium to high carbon content and a very high yield strength. Although many grades of steels can be hardened or tempered to suit spring applications, spring steels exhibit more desirable characteristics than others for spring applications.

Alloy Steels

Laser Cutting Company offers laser cutting and forming services for Alloy steels parts to the OEM and replacement part markets. We serve a wide range of industries, including the automotive, aerospace, heavy equipment, military, agricultural, medical, and power generation industries.  Alloy steel is a steel that is “alloyed” (a mixture of metals or a mixture of a metal and another element) with a variety of other element to improve its mechanical properties. Although every steel is an alloy, steels that are coined as “Alloy Steels” are infused with materials such as manganese, nickel, and chromium to make up 1%-50% by weight of the finished product. These alloyants improve the strength, hardness, toughness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and hardenability properties of the base steels.
