The Advantage of product
Laser cutting offers several benefits for many industries, ranging from precision, speed, repeatability, and flexibility. Future Parts’s laser cutting service help meet industry requirements in terms of functionality and aesthetics.
- High Precision Cuts: The light beam involved in laser cutting ensures high-precision melting and evaporation of materials, ensuring accuracy as low as 0.003mm.
- Maximum Sheet Utilization: The laser cutting technology maximizes the number of usable metal sheets and gives little room for wastage, ensuring that only the exact amount of material is provided.
- High Cutting Versatility: With advanced laser cutting operations, you can get custom laser cut parts with simple cuts, marking, engravings, and complex, intricate details.
- Low Power Use: Sheet metal laser cutters effectively cut out material pieces without consuming too much energy, often using just 10kW of energy.
- Little to No Damage: The heat from laser cutting processes affects very minimal areas on the component and has no effect on the tolerance of the laser cutting parts.
The Application of product
Many industries worldwide are gradually transitioning to laser cutting technology because it provides additional benefits such as precision, tight tolerance, flexibility, clean finish, enhanced productivity, and design complexity. For prototype or full-scale manufacturing, switching to laser cutting will help saving time and money.
- Aerospace
The laser cutting technology helps to cut aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium for aerospace engineering. Intricate pieces, high-strength aluminum alloys, and various rare metals are cut with a low HAZ and tight tolerance with the help of the laser cutting process.
- Automotive
Precision laser cutting allows for the assembly of complex automotive pieces. Laser metal cutting tools can accurately process automotive parts such as brakes, exhaust pipes, doors, etc. Part and serial numbers can also be engraved on produced items.
- Medical Devices
Laser cut parts are used in the medical sector to produce everything from beds and trolleys to diagnostic equipment, orthopedic rods, aluminum brackets, and surgical tools. Precision laser cutting creates flexible shafts, vascular clips, bone reamers, valve frames, hones, etc.
- Electronic Components
The capacity of laser technology to cut intricate components, swiftly switch between different materials and cause little heat damage to the surrounding region are the key reasons for its extensive usage in this sector. Some applications include multi-layer circuit boards, polished metal gadget enclosures, and micro SD cards.
