What are the benefits of using laser cutting to cut steel?
Laser cutting is but one of the several options for cutting mild steel, stainless steel, galvanised steel, and other metal materials. Compared to other methods of shaping or etching steel, like punching or sheering, laser cutting produces a smoother edge. It’s also significantly faster. Furthermore, there is little work, such as deburring or finishing, required after the laser cutting process is complete. Besides being efficient, steel laser cutting also allows you to be much more creative. It enables you to detail, etch, and to mark products intricately, and to design much more creative shapes without increasing your costs too much.
How does steel laser cutting work?
Steel laser cutting works by using a high-intensity beam of light generated by a large output of power. This laser beam is only around ¾ of an inch in diameter, ensuring precision and producing a high quality edge for the material that it’s cutting. When the laser cutting head is turned on, it can be moved over the metal plate, cutting, etching or marking depending on the intensity of the beam and the distance from the head to the material. Under the operation of Grenville’s highly experienced team, this makes for some highly precise metalworking.
