Custom Fiber Optic Laser Cutting Services

At Laser Cutting Company, Inc., we provide custom fiber optic laser cutting services for industrial manufacturing. Since 1983, we have supported high-volume production with advanced machining technology and precision equipment. Our facility is fully equipped to handle complex metal fabrication projects from early prototyping through full-scale production runs. By utilizing both fiber optic laser cutting and co2 laser cutting technology, we deliver accurate metal parts with fast turnaround times to keep your supply chain moving.

Our fiber optic laser cutting operations deliver rapid processing speeds and tight tolerances for industrial metal components. This technology allows us to maintain strict accuracy across large production volumes. By optimizing cutting speeds and minimizing material waste, our services offer a highly efficient solution for manufacturing custom metal parts.

We process a wide range of metals to meet exact engineering specifications. Our facility is equipped to cut materials including:

Utilizing advanced fiber optics enables us to achieve clean edges and precise geometries on flat sheet metal. This reduces the need for secondary machining and accelerates your overall project timeline.

We operate an extensive facility equipped to handle complex manufacturing requirements. Our machinery allows us to process large metal sheets and improve overall part yields. By maintaining a mix of advanced technologies, we can schedule jobs efficiently and minimize downtime.

• 2D Laser Machines: All 2D machines feature a 60 inch by 120 inch table to accommodate larger components. Our fleet includes the 10,000 watt Mazak Optiplex 3015 Fiber III and the 6000 watt Mitsubishi ML3015ex-F60. We also operate multiple 1500 watt to 4000 watt co2 laser cutting centers from Mazak and Trumpf.
• 3D Laser Machines: Our 3D capabilities are powered by 1500 watt and 2000 watt Mazak Super Turbo-x510-3D systems. These units utilize a multi-table layout so multiple jobs can be set up for repeat orders.
• Pallet Changing Technology: Select fiber optic laser cutting machines are equipped with a two-table system. This allows material to shuttle in and out consistently for uninterrupted processing.
• Material Handling Automation: The Mitsubishi laser features a 16-rack automation system. This setup allows different material types and thicknesses to be auto-loaded directly to the machine using job scheduling software.

We supply precision metal components directly to automotive OEMs and defense contractors. Our manufacturing floor is equipped to support the strict quality standards required for military and aerospace projects. By combining high-speed fiber optic laser cutting with advanced engineering, we help keep your assembly lines moving on schedule.

To provide a complete manufacturing solution, we offer several specialized capabilities alongside our primary machining. We deliver exact 2D laser cutting for flat sheet metal and intricate 3D laser cutting for formed structural parts. We also integrate CNC press brake forming to bend and shape your components to exact specifications.

What is the difference between fiber optic and CO2 laser cutting?

Fiber optic laser cutting relies on active optical fibers to generate a highly focused beam. This method is highly efficient for quickly processing reflective metals like aluminum and copper. CO2 laser cutting uses a gas mixture to produce the laser beam. It is highly effective for certain thicker materials and provides smooth edge finishes. We utilize both technologies to select the best machining method for your specific metal fabrication project.

What are your standard tolerances for fiber laser cutting?

Our standard machining tolerance is plus or minus .005 inches. Depending on the material and specific project requirements, we can hold tighter tolerances down to plus or minus .001 inches.

Can a fiber laser cut thick metal plates?

Yes. Our equipment is highly capable of cutting thick industrial materials. We can process low carbon steel up to 1.00 inch thick. We also handle aluminum and stainless steel up to 0.75 inches thick.

What is the standard lead time for custom laser cutting projects?

Our standard lead time is 3 to 5 business days for most orders. We accept projects ranging from single prototype pieces up to full high-volume production runs. If you have an urgent timeline, overnight rushing is available for a standard fee.
