Plate and Sheet Laser Cutting

Flat plate and sheet laser cutting in steel, aluminum and stainless, with waterjet available for thick material that exceeds the laser envelope.

Plate cutting capacity

Laser — steelUp to 0.75 in thick
Laser — aluminumUp to 0.25 in thick
Laser — stainlessUp to 0.25 in thick
Waterjet — steelUp to 4.00 in thick
Waterjet — aluminumUp to 8.00 in thick
Waterjet — stainlessUp to 3.00 in thick

Plate laser cutting gives clean, smooth edges that are effectively ready to weld. Compared with waterjet or plasma, there is far less cleanup and far less time lost to secondary operations before the part moves to forming.

Holes, alignment keys and custom profiles are cut in the same pass, which cuts assembly time and improves accuracy downstream. For material thicker than the laser envelope we run waterjet — steel to 4 in, aluminum to 8 in and stainless to 3 in.
