A metal laser cutting service designed for demanding projects

A metal laser cutting service designed for demanding projects

This metal laser cutting service is designed for DIY enthusiasts, businesses, craftsmen, and design offices requiring reliable metal parts that match precise specifications. It is suitable for both standard products and more complex projects that require meticulous attention to the shape, size, and final function of every part.

Using steel sheets or stainless steel plates, we provide laser cutting for industrial work, home decor, interior design, or specific technical applications. Thanks to high-performance machinery and a controlled production line, we guarantee consistent high quality, whether for large production runs or single custom pieces.

How does metal laser cutting work?

How does metal laser cutting work?

Metal laser cutting works by using a concentrated laser beam, generated by a laser type suited to the material, such as a fiber or CO2 laser. This beam is precisely directed onto the metal surface to heat, melt, or vaporize it, allowing the material to be cut according to your design file.

The manufacturing process involves several stages: file analysis, laser cutting machine setup, adjustment of laser power, cutting speed, and assist gas, followed by the actual cutting in a secure workspace. This process ensures precise and repeatable cuts, tailored to each material, whether it is steel, aluminum, or stainless steel.

Which metals can be laser cut?

Which metals can be laser cut?

Laser cutting allows for the processing of a wide range of metals and materials. The most commonly used are steel plate, stainless steel, and aluminium, though specific alloys can also be cut depending on your project requirements.

Custom-cut stainless steel is highly valued for its corrosion resistance and high-quality surface finish, while aluminium is often selected for its lightweight properties and versatility. Depending on the material thickness, laser type, and power settings, the cutting process can be tailored for various applications, whether structural, decorative, or technical.

Lead times for metal laser cutting depend primarily on the complexity of your project, the quantity of parts, and current production capacity at the time of your order. Generally:

• 3 working days (Express "Boost" option - for parts without folding)
• Standard delivery: 8 working days
• Workshop pickup in Colmar (France): 8 working days (Free option)

Please allow 2 additional working days for international deliveries (United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Netherlands, and Switzerland). With the Boost option, benefit from shorter production times and free delivery.

The maximum thickness for laser cutting varies depending on the type of metal and the machine's power. Laser cutting is particularly effective for thin to medium gauges, offering exceptional precision. Beyond certain thicknesses, alternative methods may be considered, but laser cutting remains the preferred solution whenever cut quality and precision are the top priorities.

Yes, laser metal cutting is perfectly suited for individuals, particularly for decorative projects, unique parts, or custom-made designs. Although this process is primarily engineered for professional use, a well-defined project with clear dimensions and goals allows any DIY enthusiast to benefit from the same industrial-grade manufacturing quality as our professional clients.

Providing a technical drawing in DXF, STP, or STEP format is highly recommended to ensure high-precision cutting and accurate results. A well-prepared CAD file reduces the need for manual adjustments, optimizes production lead times, and helps keep costs down. Alternatively, you can easily design your custom metal part using our online configurators and shape editors.

The main difference lies in the level of precision and the quality of the finish. Laser cutting offers a finer cut, tighter tolerances, and a superior surface finish. Plasma cutting, on the other hand, is typically used for thicker materials where extreme precision is not the primary requirement. The choice depends on the final application and the specific requirements of your project.

Yes, metal laser cutting can be combined with metal bending to create functional, ready-to-use parts. This combination allows you to transform a flat sheet into a 3D component while maintaining high dimensional precision. Integrating these two steps simplifies the fabrication process and ensures overall project consistency.
