L.E.F., Inc. - Laser Cutting

Laser Cutting

High Tech Does not Mean High Cost

Lasers are an exact, high-speed, computer controlled alternative to stamping, cutting or processing by other means. Our precise, computer controlled lasers focus light energy into an extremely thin cutting beam. Because the laser is a non-contact tool, it quickly and repeatedly cuts intricate designs and shapes, minimizing chances of contamination or errors.

Why are Lasers better?

The laser’s cutting capability is not limited by material hardness or surface contours. You have the advantage of both speed and precision with a large variety of materials. Because we have saved time and reduced costs associated with conventional drilling methods, we have proven that high tech does not mean high cost.

What materials do Lasers Cut Best

L.E.F., Inc. can process a variety of materials from large sheets to discrete parts in prototype or production quantities.

Automotive

We welcome unique challenges-especially machined parts requiring close tolerances. We work with vehicle engineers in design and production of these parts. Our solutions have lead to decreasing production costs while still producing superior parts.

What We Can Do For You!

Perhaps you never considered laser processing because you were unaware of the lasers versatility or maybe you though it was too expensive. We are constantly developing new applications that process an ever widening range of materials. Our Computer Aided Design (CAD) functions will easily and quickly enter your information or drawing into our computer for prototype or production processing.
