Precision in every detail

Laser cutting enables fine and complex geometries in thin materials without mechanical contact with the component.

At Veldlaser, we develop high-precision laser cutting processes for components where dimensional accuracy, feature size, material behaviour and repeatability are critical.

Our processes are developed around your material, thickness, geometry, tolerances and production requirements.

Complex geometries without mechanical tooling

The laser beam follows a digitally defined path, allowing complex contours and fine patterns to be produced without a conventional cutting tool.

This provides significant design freedom and makes it possible to change geometries without manufacturing new mechanical cutting tools.

For thin and delicate components, the absence of mechanical cutting forces can also help reduce deformation during processing.

Controlled cutting quality

A precision-cut component is defined by more than its outer dimensions.

Depending on the application, important requirements can include:

Dimensional accuracy · Position · Kerf width · Edge quality · Burr formation · Heat-affected zone · Surface condition

Veldlaser develops the cutting process around these requirements.

Laser source, wavelength, process gas, beam parameters and cutting strategy are selected according to the material, thickness, geometry and required result.

Materials

Every material interacts differently with laser light and therefore requires an appropriate cutting strategy.

Veldlaser processes a broad range of engineering and advanced materials, including:

Stainless steel · Titanium · Aluminium · Copper alloys · Tantalum · Molybdenum · Inconel · Polymers · Ceramics · Glass

The achievable result depends on the combination of material, thickness, geometry and required quality.

From flat sheet to complex components

Laser cutting is not limited to simple 2D contours.

With 2D, 2.5D and 3D component handling, Veldlaser can process geometries that require accurate positioning of the laser relative to the component.

This extends the possibilities from precision sheet components to more complex parts and geometries.

Process development and verification

A reliable cutting process starts with understanding the complete application.

We analyse:

Material → Thickness → Geometry → Tolerances → Edge requirements → Production volume

The process can then be developed, measured and optimised for the required result.

Veldlaser combines laser processing with in-house metallurgical and measurement capabilities, supporting efficient process development and quality control.

Proven laser cutting expertise

Veldlaser introduced laser cutting with a solid-state Nd:YAG laser in 1997.

Since then, our laser technology, process knowledge and production capabilities have continued to develop.

Today, Veldlaser combines decades of laser experience with more than 20 laser systems, in-house measurement and metallurgical facilities, controlled production environments and ISO 13485-certified processes.

From prototype to series production

Whether the requirement is a single development component, a small batch or ongoing series production, the cutting process is developed around the application.

For larger quantities, component handling and production steps can be automated to combine precision with reproducibility and production efficiency.
