Frequently Asked Questions
What Size Sheets Can You Cut?
Our laser cutting machine and automated feeding system can handle sheets up to 60" x 120".
What Is Your Typical Lead Time?
Our goal is to get estimates send out within 24-48 hours, but sometimes difficult to source materials take more time. We will quote the current lead time with the estimate. This is generally 2-3 weeks, depending on the size of your job and our current work load. We offer expedite services for an additional fee.
What Is Your Accuracy?
It depends on the material and the equipment we use, but we can hold tolerances as low as 0.002" for most applications.
How Thick Can You Cut?
Our laser table can cut material from 0.003" to 1.0" thick. See below for details.
Mild Steel .003”- 1”
Stainless Steel .003”- 0.5”
Aluminum .040”- 0.5”
Galvanized .020”- 0.5”
Brass .040”- 0.50”
Copper .040”- .250
What Types of Files Do You Work With?
Solid part files (.sldprt) are preferred. We can also use most other CAD file types.
If you don't have a file, our design team can reverse engineer your part.
