Laser cutting stainless steel

Use of modern CNC machines in the company «MAGNET» ensures perfect processing quality of stainless steel. Stainless steel is known for its unique alloy structure: it is distinguished by its high strength and anti-corrosion properties, which makes the material indispensable in various fields of application. Despite the difficulty in processing due to incompatibility with thermal methods, exactly cutting stainless steel with laser allows you to create parts with high precision according to technical specifications.

There are also various technologies for working with edges, For example, using nitrogen or carbon dioxide, that depending on the cutting features, allows you to achieve perfect smoothness of the final product. This method is designed for creating complex design solutions and structures made of stainless steel.

Creating complex stainless steel parts requires the use of high-tech equipment, in particular, CNC machine. These machines provide not only high precision in the manufacture of parts, but also allow you to make precise cuts, strictly consistent with project documentation. A special feature of such machines is the ability to create through holes with a minimum diameter of up to 0,2 mm. Also, using CNC, you can mark metal for subsequent operations, For example, indicate fold locations.

The MAGNET company actively uses laser cutting on stainless steel, highlighting the following advantages of this technology:

• Accuracy of shapes and sizes of parts, as well as full edge processing.
• No deformation or changes in metal properties due to local laser action. The technology does not imply a significant thermal effect on the material.
• High performance, since CNC can produce any volume of products, having previously calculated the speed of work on one position.
• Minimize material consumption due to fine focus of the laser beam.
• Competitive cost of laser cutting stainless steel.

The output products are, ready for use or transfer to subsequent processing stages. They are characterized by ideal surface smoothness and fully comply with the quality standards of the original workpiece.

The MAGNET company approaches each order individually. Before starting work, the technologist fully analyzes the project with technical specifications, to determine the optimal cutting method, considering:

• complexity of part design;
• requirements for cut quality and accuracy;
• type and type of stainless steel workpiece.

Our company provides metalworking services any complexity. Next, the electronic layout is loaded into the CNC program. It controls the movements of the laser, compliance with the specified trajectory is maintained. When the laser beam hits the metal, it instantly melts the material at the point of contact, leaving behind a thin and precise outline.

Using a gas-filled laser speeds up the process laser cutting stainless steel and allows you to work with steels of various chemical compositions, including those, which have increased heat- and corrosion resistance. We also have available laser cutting stainless steel using nitrogen. This technology is especially effective for obtaining the so-called “white cut”, which does not require additional post-processing.

Price of laser cutting of stainless steel at MAGNET is determined based on several key factors. The cost of services depends on the volume of work, steel grade used and sheet thickness, as well as the need to perform additional operations, such as bending, welding or polishing. Our clients can receive a preliminary estimate of the cost of services, by sending details of your project by email or through the feedback form on the website. We offer competitive prices thanks to the use of our own equipment.
