Our Cutting Technologies Explained

1. Laser Cutting

Laser cutting is perfect when you need clean edges and detailed designs. Our laser CNC cutting service uses high-powered beams to cut with amazing detail.

  • Best for: Metal sheets, thin plastics, detailed designs
  • Thickness: 0.5mm-25mm
  • Benefits: Super clean edges, tiny details possible, no tool wear

2. Plasma Cutting

When you need to cut thick metal fast and at lower cost, CNC plasma cutting is the answer.

  • Best for: Steel, stainless steel, aluminum
  • Thickness: Up to 150mm
  • Benefits: Works on thick metal, faster than other methods, lower cost for big parts

3. Waterjet Cutting

Waterjet uses high-pressure water with abrasive materials to cut through almost anything without heat.

  • Best for: Heat-sensitive materials, stone, glass, composites
  • Thickness: Up to 300mm depending on material
  • Benefits: No heat damage, can cut almost any material, great for thick pieces

4. CNC Routing

For wood, plastics, foam and softer materials, our CNC routing service delivers perfect results.
