Fiber laser cutting services rely on a fiber optic cable that channels amplified light to a hyper-focused lens. The result is a precise cutting point that can cut sheet metal up to 0.866 inches in thickness. A laser cutter can be used to cut the following sheet metal materials:
- 5052 & 3003 Aluminum
- Annealed Alloy Steel
- Cold Rolled
- Hot Rolled Low Carbon Steel
- Mild Steel
- High Strength Steel
- 304, 430, & 316 Stainless Steel
Despite using a laser to cut through the material, a fiber optic laser cutter achieves minimal heat issues, thanks to the focused laser. For added precision and speed, laser cutters are automated to meet your exact needs.
Our Sheet Metal Laser Cutting Services
To power through complex cutting projects with enhanced efficiency, our facility at DeWys Metal Solutions is equipped with an Amada 9,000-(and 12,000) watt fiber optic laser. These lasers are equipped with automated picking, loading, and nesting optimization.
Our laser cutting systems provide accurate material selection, low labor, and advanced safety features. In addition to this industry-leading cutter, we’re the second manufacturing facility in the nation to use a fully automated part-sorting robot to streamline the laser cutting preparation and part removal steps.
With these innovations, you can order complex and bulk orders of sheet metal components with minimal turnaround time.
Fiber optic laser cutting may be used for the following industries:
Benefits of Fiber Laser Cutting Services
Fiber optic laser cutting fabrication services offer distinct advantages over alternative cutting methods. Here are some of the top benefits you can enjoy when providing sheet metal or having our team at DeWys Metal Solutions source sheet metal for cutting:
- Increased efficiency: Laser cutters can power through varying thicknesses of sheet metal in less time than a CO2 laser or other cutter type.
- Improved accuracy: Thanks to both constant beam transmission and a highly focused beam, fiber optic cutters achieve a greater degree of accuracy.
- Reduced costs: Improved accuracy and efficiency, along with fewer maintenance issues, result in more affordable cutting services.
