Why Choose Laser Cutting Over Other Methods?

Laser CNC cutting has big advantages over other cutting technologies:

vs. Plasma Cutting: Laser cuts are much more precise with less heat damage to your parts.
vs. Waterjet: Laser cutting is faster and costs less for metal parts.
vs. Traditional CNC: No tools that wear out, much less setup time, and cleaner edges.

Frequently Asked Question

What is Laser CNC Cutting?

Laser CNC cutting uses powerful laser beams to cut materials with computer control. This means we can make very exact cuts without touching the material.

At Istar Machining, we use the newest laser cutting systems to give you the best results possible.

What materials can you cut?

We can cut most metals like steel, aluminum, and titanium. For non-metals, we can cut acrylic, wood, and some plastics. Some materials like PVC aren’t good for laser cutting because they release harmful gases.

How thick can you cut?

It depends on the material. For steel, we can cut up to 25mm thick. Aluminum up to 15mm, and stainless steel up to 20mm.

Do you handle small batches?

Yes! We work with everything from one-off prototypes to large production runs. Our setup is quick, making small batches affordable.

How do I submit designs?

You can upload DXF, DWG, or STEP files through our website or email them to us. We can also help convert other file types if needed.

How does pricing work?

Pricing depends on material type, thickness, cutting time, and order size. Contact us for a quick quote based on your specific needs.
