Here at Cordeck®, we have a State-Of-The-Art Laser, and it is the most efficient there is in laser cutting. The laser beam is created by an active fiber and is then transmitted over a transport fiber to the machine’s cutting head. Fiber lasers are significantly smaller than CO2 lasers. They also generate several times the power from the same amount of current. A fiber-cutting system is primarily suited for processing thin to thick sheets of metal from steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals like copper and brass.
This means with our laser we can do the following:
• Provide intricate enhancements when processing our quality steel deck products in-house.
• Cut and cleanly remove parts without a secondary tooling process to remove burrs.
• Assist you with overflow on your lines or run parts on a regular basis.
• Production for a short run, prototype, or long runs.
We’re also able to make cool designs and signs like the ones you see pictured!
