process

drawing to delivery, four steps.

No middlemen and no mystery. Your file goes from quote to cut on the same floor, checked at every stage by the people running the machine.

01
quote
Upload a DXF, DWG or STEP. Price comes from the true cut length, pierces and material, not a guess.
02
nest
Parts nested for yield, lead-ins and micro-tabs set so edges stay clean and parts stay flat.
03
cut
Fibre laser holds ±0.1 mm across the sheet. Burr-free edges, tight internal radii, crisp detail.
04
finish
Deburr, fold and powder coat in house. Parts arrive ready to fit, not ready for more work.

faq

the usual questions, answered straight.

What file formats do you accept?

DXF, DWG or STEP. STEP is welcome for parts modelled in 3D; the flat profile is taken from it. If all you have is a PDF or a sketch, send it anyway — simple profiles can be redrawn, and any redraw time is agreed before it is added to the price.

What materials and thicknesses do you cut?

Mild steel and stainless steel up to 18 mm, aluminium up to 10 mm, brass up to 6 mm, copper up to 4 mm and galvanised steel up to 6 mm. Minimum thickness is 0.3 mm across the range, on sheet up to 3 x 1.5 m.

Do you supply the material, and can I supply my own?

Both. Through our network of suppliers we cut mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium, brass, copper and galvanised steel, and you are welcome to supply your own material and we will cut that too. No grades to specify — tell us the material and thickness and we take it from there.

Is there a minimum order?

There is a £75 minimum order. One part is a job; small batches are nested onto the next appropriate sheet so you are not paying for material you do not use.

How fast is turnaround?

Turnaround is from 24 hours. We quote within one working day, and lead time is 1 to 3 working days depending on the complexity of the job.

What tolerance can you hold on 3 mm stainless?

Plus or minus 0.1 mm as standard. If a feature needs tighter, flag it on the drawing and we confirm before cutting.
