C&C Fabrications, 21 May 2025
- Laser cutting is a core service offered by C&C Fabrications and is essential to metalworking projects.
- Our 6Kw Kimla laser provides an accurate and efficient cut on all our metalworking projects.
- Choose C&C to ensure a high-quality, laser cut finish on your next project.
At C&C Fabrications we know that in metalworking, precision matters. No matter the project, getting the exact steel components you need (quickly and accurately) can make the difference. That’s why laser cutting has become one of our core services.
In this blog, we’ll give you a behind-the-scenes look at how laser cutting works and why it’s a key part of what we do for every customer project.
What is laser cutting?
Laser cutting is a method of cutting steel and other materials, using a high-powered laser beam. Instead of using a physical blade, the laser uses heat to melt or vaporise the metal, while a jet of gas (usually nitrogen or oxygen) clears the path. This gives incredibly precise, clean cuts, every time.
This process is perfect for cutting custom shapes, intricate patterns, and detailed parts with exceptional repeatability and accuracy.
Why laser cutting matters in steel fabrication
Whether you need one prototype or hundreds of parts, laser cutting offers benefits to increase the quality and cost-efficiency of your project:
- Accuracy
- Our laser cutting machines can work within tight tolerances, making them ideal for projects where precision is critical.
- Minimal finishing is needed, saving you time and cost on secondary processes (like grinding).
- Efficiency
- Faster turnaround times mean we can keep your project moving without delays, even on high-volume orders.
- Flexibility
- No matter the complexity of the cut, our 6Kw Kimla laser can handle detailed designs with ease.
- Optimisation
- We use advanced software to minimise waste, making your order more cost-effective and environmentally conscious.
Metals we work with
At C&C Fabrications, we laser cut a wide range of metals, including:
- Steel
