Types of Laser Cutters Available From 3ERP

Our laser cutting shop is equipped with advanced laser beam cutters that deliver efficient cutting across a wide range of materials. A laser cutting machine is a type of CNC machine that uses a thin, high-powered, focused laser beam to process materials. Below are the main types of laser cutting machines we use.

CO₂ Laser Cutting

We offer CO₂ laser cutting for non-metals like acrylic, wood, plastic, rubber, and cardboard. Known for precision and efficiency, CO₂ lasers are ideal for cutting, engraving, and boring.

Fiber Laser Cutting

Fiber laser cutting excels at delivering high-quality, neat cuts on metals like steel, aluminum, copper, and other reflective metals, ideal for rapid, accurate production.

Nd Yag Laser Cutting

Nd:YAG laser cutting is ideal for metal processing. With its short wavelength and high power, it enables efficient drilling, engraving, and welding, making it suitable for demanding applications.

FAQ

Laser cutting is a precise manufacturing process that uses a high powered lasers to cut through various materials, including wood, steel, and certain plastics. The laser beam is generated inside a laser resonator by amplifying light through stimulated emission of radiation, and then directed onto the workpiece using optics such as mirrors and lenses.

Laser cutters are commonly used to create 2-dimensional parts from sheet or plate materials, serving both industrial and hobbyist applications. This versatile technology can process both metallic and non-metallic materials across a range of thicknesses with exceptional accuracy and clean edges.

Laser cutting thickness depends on material type, laser technology, and machine power. Fiber lasers can cut metals up to 50 mm. In contrast, CO₂ lasers can handle non-metals such as wood, acrylic, and plastics up to 30 mm thick. Laser cutting delivers clean edges and high precision across all thicknesses. Contact us for a custom online laser cutting quote.

The time required to laser cut depends on material type, thickness, and design complexity. Simple designs on thin materials may be completed within hours, while thicker or more intricate projects can take longer. We optimize every job for speed and quality. Contact us for a personalized time estimate for your project.

Although laser cutters can process many materials, they have limitations in material thickness, typically up to 4 inches (10cm). For thicker materials, waterjet cutting and plasma cutting offer effective alternatives. Waterjet cutting uses high-pressure water mixed with abrasive to cut various materials at greater thicknesses with excellent edge quality. Plasma cutting excels at cutting thicker metals quickly and efficiently. These cutting methods complement laser cutting, providing flexible solutions for projects that require processing beyond standard laser thickness capabilities.

Compared to other manufacturing methods, laser cutting offers clear advantages in precision, speed, and the ability to produce complex contours and fine details. This non-contact process reduces material deformation and delivers clean edges with little to no post-processing. It’s especially suited for prototypes and low-volume production, helping save both time and cost across various materials like metals and plastics.

3ERP provides custom laser cutting services for your sheet metal fabrication needs. Whether you're developing prototypes or preparing for mass production, we offer cost-effective solutions to help designers, startups, and engineers bring their ideas to market.
