Sheet Metal Service Capabilities.
Available on our Marketplace.
Waterjet Cutting Service
Cut your pieces with high precision and minimal waste without increasing the material’s surface temperature with the high pressure water jet.
Laser Cutting
Using high-precision laser cutting will result in great finishing, precise cutting and shorter cutting times, resulting in rapid prototyping.
Plasma Cutting
Ideal for thickness between 50 and 150mm. Plasma cutting is a thermal cutting method: it uses heat to melt the metal instead of cutting it.
Bending
Bend your metal pieces to shape them for manufacturing processes. With high precision, get your pieces ready to use.
