What is laser cutting? When it comes to precision machine components, it is one of the most accurate, economical and efficient processes. The new age of technology allows materials to be intricately cut into specific sizes and shapes. Therefore, developing completely compatible parts for machinery, found in all types of industries. For instance, at Stephens Gaskets, our customers use our UK laser cutting service for a variety parts such as shims, gaskets and washers.

What Is The Process?

You will work alongside one of our team members to establish the most suitable material for your component and its requirements. After that, we will then move on to determine the shape and size. Laser cutting uses remarkable computerised technology to attain complete accuracy for all machine components, including shims.

Measurements are inputted into the industrialised machine, strictly guiding the lasers throughout the procedure. The controlled force of energy then cuts through complex sheets of metal and polymer. Therefore, producing meticulous results in both size, shape and thickness. When introducing laser cutting to your machinery developments, you have a guarantee of optimum performance through this bespoke means of manufacturing.

How Do The Lasers Work?

‘Lasers’ are the acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. They are amplified sources of light formed from the stimulation of molecules or atoms, resulting in controlled radiation. These focused beams of radiation are powerful enough to carve and etch through thick materials for the most intricate designs. Furthermore, our laser cutting methods allow for a small kerf width and heat affect zone, making it possible for a matchless outcome of precision & quality.

What Are the Advantages of Laser Cutting?

Optimum Results

The cut edge achieved through laser cutting is next to none in comparison to all other cutting methods. The immaculate results are what make this approach sought after in several industries, including automobile and medicine.

Efficiency

Laser cutting is an accelerated means of component modification, allowing for fast turnarounds that don’t compromise on quality or accuracy.

Reduction of Waste

Laser cutting fully utilises all of the material through precise measurement taking and guaranteed exceptional results. Therefore, the material wastage is always lower for the process of laser cutting. Additionally, there is a reduction of labour costs, due to the computerised technology needed.

Consistency

With a fast turnaround and a profound level of accuracy, the size of the batch you need for your project will not cause any complications. Consistency is always met within both small and large volumes.
