Steel Laser Cutting
Precision Metal Laser Cutting Services
Backed by 20+ years of industry experience and blameless work-history, DEK offers optimum quality custom laser cutting services for our honored customers coming from a wide range of industries. Our service has been widely acknowledged by all our domestic and international clients owing to its flexibility, reliability, and promptness.
Our state-of-the-art CNC laser machinery and certified machinists, can cut anything from thick sheets of steel to delicate aluminum foils. Our ever-expanding inventory mainly comprises CO2 gas lasers and Fiber Lasers. Equipped with up to 6000 Watts of laser cutting power, our tools can cut up to the thickness of 5-30 mm depending on the type of metal, can cut on the work-area of 3000 to 6000 mm, and can produce tolerance of +/-0.001”.
Our Metal Laser Cutting Capabilities
In order to offer premium quality parts and the greatest ROI for our customers, DEK has followed the international market trends and invested in the latest innovative technologies.
Unlike Oxy-fuel, water jet, and plasma cutting devices, a CNC laser cutter renders the cleanest and the most precise style of cutting. The non-contact cutting method allows us to fabricate components with reduced cost, higher speed, rapid repetition or change in design, minimum heat affected zone (HAZ), narrow kerf (≤ 0.004”/0.1 mm), burr-free holes and edges, less material waste, and no need for subsequent finishing operations.
2D/ Flat CNC Laser Cutting
Flatbed cutting, which also goes by ‘2D cutting’, is the most commonly applied form of laser cutting for metal sheets of any workable size. Whether it’s for OEM or replacement part markets, DEK is a trusted provider of custom 2D laser cutting services. Our state-of-the-art automated 2D lasers can process flat metals of various thicknesses with great accuracy and higher cutting speed. We also employ specialized CAD/CAM nesting software for optimizing the material utilization and for maximizing the number of components crafted from a metal sheet. Additionally, we possess an automated load and unload system, which reduces the time needed for exchanging materials and clearing off scrap metal.
3D / Tube CNC Laser Cutting
If the component’s geometry doesn’t support the use of a 2D laser, DEK’s multi-axis laser cutting services stand as the final solution. Whether it’s for OEM or replacement part markets, DEK is a trusted provider of custom 3D laser cutting services. 3D laser cutting is employed to cut holes, slots, corners, and other various features in tubes, beams, angles, and channels. We can make any part geometry come alive and meet the accuracy your designs require. Since we provide specialized tube cutting services, you will receive optimum benefit from the synthesis of modern laser tube cutting equipment and skilled craftsmanship for a streamlined process that reduces budget, accelerates cycle times, and expands design scope.
Common Metals For CNC Laser Cutting
DEK’s laser cutting department is well-equipped with ultra-modern technology and certified professionals, thereby allowing our clients to choose from a variety of metals and its alloys across a wide range of weight, strength, corrosion-resistance and conductivity. Apart from the commonly used metals/alloys, we capable of cutting almost any of the metals/alloys specified by our clients with an accuracy of +/- 0.005”. The maximum workable sheet thickness will vary depending on the material and generally ranges from 5 mm to 30 mm.
Metal Laser Cutting For Automotive Industry
Each year, around 80 million automobiles are sold globally which is the equivalent to 220,000 automobiles a day. There are myriad different parts and pieces involved in each step of the manufacturing process. Additionally, exact replicas of each part are required for mass production. The assembling of such intricate parts is possible only because of precision laser cutting. Metal automobile parts, such as brakes, doors, exhaust pipes, etc. can be processed precisely by laser metal cutting tools. Even part numbers and serial numbers can be recorded onto manufactured pieces. Hydroformed parts, which are usually 3D pieces used to create the instrument panels or the engine frames, are made using laser cutting technology.
Metal Laser Cutting For Jewelry Industry
Jewelry is also one of the creative users that has reaped the benefits of precision laser cutting technology. Creating rings, bracelets, or pendants of exact diameter, depth, and width is conveniently done by the laser. Various intricate and delicate designs can be engraved onto the exterior and interior surface of the piece by using a thin stream of smaller laser tools.
