Metal laser cutting services is the latest thermal cutting technology in the sphere of precision metal fabrication. As indicated by the word ‘laser’, this metal processing procedure projects a beam of light at a high temperature and uses its melting capacities to cut through metal sheets in different materials, such as steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other metals as well as several non-metallic materials.
At Automated Metal Processing (AMP), our plate and tube metal laser cutting services offer benefits supported by highly advanced technology available today, ensuring that precision, quality, and successful outcomes are achieved in every metal fabrication project we undertake. Whether you’re in need of laser cutting services for elementary gaskets, complex components in industrial applications, or exceptionally detailed custom works, our crew guarantees a systematically ideal service to cut complex shapes with incredible accuracy.
Metal laser cutting is typically a commodity service where fabrication shops retain the cutting equipment, process and cut the material, and eventually sell it. At AMP, our goal has always been to differentiate ourselves from the competition and provide top-notch solutions.
We have gained this competitive edge by aiming our focus on collaboration with the best professionals in industry, and not just locally but across various provinces in Canada. When working with our customers, we always strive for exceptional service, attention to small details, commitment to results, high consistency in quality, reliability and fairness in pricing.
Metal laser cutting services have developed into the technology of choice for micro component manufacturers, yet benefit a wide range of industries. Ideally suited for high carbon or abrasion-resistant steel, laser cutting can produce such a clean finish that supplementary operations are redundant.
Our state-of-the-art laser cutting equipment (even with automatic material intake) helps AMP distribute tolerant, smooth, detailed, and durable metal items and components. Even more, the benefits of laser cutting compared with conventional tactics are overwhelming.
Benefits of AMPs Metal Laser Cutting Services
While being a cost-effective metal processing option, there are several other undeniable benefits of laser cutting for precision metal fabrication. With metal laser cutting services as advanced as the ones we offer at Automated Metal Processing (AMP), your company rests assured that any delivery and installation are successful due to these benefits:
- Lasers melt and evaporate metals with unparalleled accuracy
- Laser cutting procedures offer excellent metalwork stability
- Lasers systematically produce smooth and clean edges
- The tightly focused laser beam facilitate intricate cutting and close nesting of parts
- Metal laser cutting is extremely versatile and works well on most metals
- Metal laser cutting services are great for projects of any degree of complexity
- Laser metal processing allows for exceptional detailing
- This technique is ideal for custom metal cutting needs
- Lasers are flexible in mimicking the shape of rare equipment component
- Laser cutting ensures micron tolerances and flexibility in handling contours
- Laser cutting can utilize more sheet metal while creating less waste
- This procedure causes no damage or material warping, even to thin sheets
- With CNC, laser cutting can achieve greater efficiency and increased productivity
- Laser cutting is cost-effective due to the generally low consumption of power
- Laser cutters account for fast changeovers and easily adjusts to changes
Laser cutting is one of the most reliable forms of metal cutting, due to its capacity in meeting high-level quality requirements and standards. The quality of laser cutting is determined by its roughness, perpendicularity, cutting width, burr, and thermal zone among others.
At AMP, we combine automated technology and laser cutting techniques to provide metal fabrication outputs with the absolute best quality. Our top-skilled experts and cutting-edge computer aid system guarantee high-caliber metal cutting for any industry.
Precision Metal Fabrication With Laser Services
The laser beam is a column of very high-intensity light which is about 3/4 of an inch in diameter. It travels from the laser resonator, which creates the beam of light, through the bore of a nozzle. Focusing the large beam of light down to a single pinpoint with the help of beam benders, results in rapid heating, melting, and vaporizing of the plate. On a CNC (Computer numerical control) laser cutter, the laser cutting head is moved over the metal plate in the shape of the desired part, thereby cutting the part out of the plate.
The laser cutting process has a small kerf width and heat-affected zone which allows the laser to cut with superior precision, regardless of the metal, and produce the desired item with a high degree of accuracy and detail, ensuring the component fits its end-location.
