Fiber Laser Cutting Services: Precision Metal Cutting Solutions

How CIC Specializes in Fiber Laser Cutting

At Custom Industrials Company (CIC), we specialize in fiber laser cutting services that deliver exceptional precision, speed, and edge quality for metal components. Our fiber laser cutting capabilities utilize state-of-the-art technology with a large 5′ x 10′ cutting table, enabling us to process a wide range of materials with superior accuracy and minimal heat-affected zones. Fiber laser cutting has revolutionized precision metal cutting, and we’ve invested in the latest equipment to bring these advantages to our customers.

What Is Fiber Laser Cutting?

Fiber laser cutting is an advanced thermal cutting process that uses a high-powered laser beam generated through optical fibers to melt, burn, or vaporize material along a programmed cutting path. Unlike CO2 lasers, fiber lasers offer higher energy efficiency, faster cutting speeds, and superior performance on reflective materials like aluminum and brass. The concentrated laser beam creates extremely narrow kerfs (cut widths) and produces clean, precise edges that often require no secondary finishing, making it ideal for intricate designs and tight-tolerance parts.

Fiber Laser Cutting FAQ

What are the advantages of fiber laser cutting over other methods?

Fiber laser cutting offers superior edge quality, tighter tolerances, faster cutting speeds, and better performance on reflective materials compared to plasma or CO2 laser cutting. The minimal heat-affected zone preserves material properties near the cut edge.

What material thicknesses can fiber laser cutting handle?

Our fiber laser effectively cuts thin gauge materials through medium plate thicknesses, with optimal performance on materials up to 1" depending on the metal type. We can advise on the best cutting method for your specific material and thickness.

How precise is fiber laser cutting?

Fiber laser cutting achieves tolerances of ±0.005" and produces kerf widths as narrow as 0.004". This precision makes it ideal for intricate designs, tight nesting, and parts requiring minimal secondary operations.

Can fiber laser cutting handle reflective materials like aluminum and brass?

Yes, fiber laser technology excels on reflective materials that challenge CO2 lasers. The fiber laser wavelength is better absorbed by metals like aluminum, brass, and copper, producing clean cuts without the reflection issues.
