Precision Fiber Laser Cutting Services
METCO provides precision fiber laser cutting services for OEM manufacturers, industrial equipment builders, and fabrication customers requiring accurate, repeatable sheet metal components.
Fiber laser cutting allows complex part geometries to be produced quickly while maintaining excellent edge quality and dimensional consistency. From prototype quantities to full production runs, our laser cutting operation supports carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other common fabrication materials like copper, bronze, and bras.
By combining laser cutting, forming, welding, machining, finishing, and assembly under one roof, METCO helps customers simplify sourcing while reducing lead times and production risk.
Fiber Laser Cutting Capabilities
- Max Raw Material 79″ x 157″
- Max Part Size 78″ x 156″
- Position accuracy +/-0.0012″
- Mild Steel 30GA thru 1″ thickness
- Stainless 30GA thru 3/4″ thickness
- Aluminum 0.01″ thru 5/8″ thickness
- Copper & Brass 30GA thru 1/2″ thickness
Fiber laser technology provides fast processing speeds, excellent repeatability, and clean edges that frequently reduce the amount of secondary processing required before fabrication or assembly.

Material selection impacts tolerance capability, edge quality, bend performance, welding requirements, and finishing options. Understanding these interactions early helps avoid costly manufacturing issues later.
Typical Applications
- Industrial equipment components
- Material handling systems
- Control consoles
- Electrical enclosures
- Machine guards
- Structural brackets
- Welded assemblies
- OEM production components
Laser cutting is often the starting point for fabricated products that ultimately move through forming, welding, machining, powder coating, and final assembly operations.
Why Engineers Choose Fiber Laser Cutting
Compared to many traditional cutting methods, fiber lasers provide improved accuracy, faster throughput, and better edge quality. Engineers often choose laser cutting because it allows complex geometries and nested part layouts without requiring dedicated tooling.
This flexibility is particularly valuable for prototyping, engineering revisions, and production environments where part designs continue to evolve over time.
