Laser Scribing and Cutting Services

Laser cutting of virtually any thin material is nearly always accomplished best by laser cutting, which performs with greater accuracy and less damage than any other method. Using a full array of Infrared and Ultraviolet wave lengths, Laserod has developed procedures for laser cutting of hundreds of types of material, ranging from softer materials (e.g., aluminum) to diamonds and very delicate films.

In recent years, picosecond and femtosecond laser cutting has become more and more in use in implanted medical devices such as stents, which are made to rigorous tolerances (often 10-20 microns) and must show no damage to the material. Because of the potential of damage that can result from precision laser cutting, an accompanying gas, usually oxygen or nitrogen, is often used. Given Laserod’s over forty years of experience with lasers working on a vast array of material types, our experienced personnel know which gas works best with each material, and precisely how much will achieve the desired result.
