Laser cutting is a method of metal cutting that uses a high-powered laser to vaporise and cut metal. Laser Cutting is most commonly used for industrial applications, but can also be used to create bespoke laser etching and engraving.

Laser cutting involves focusing a laser beam through a lens onto the material to be cut. The intense heat of the laser beam melts or vaporizes the material along the desired cutting path, creating a narrow kerf. Computer-controlled movements guide the laser beam, allowing for intricate and precise cuts.

The kerf of a laser cutting machine is considerably thinner than the kerf of a sawblade, so is therefore capable of extremely detailed and refined cutting when compared to other methods of material cutting; with a cutting tolerance of +-0.25mm.

Although the majority of materials can be laser cut, some materials are not recommended for laser cutting. Some of these materials include fibreglass, polycarbonate, PVC and HDPE.
