Service detail

Metal laser cutting for repeatable trade and production work.

Fiber laser cutting is the cleanest route for flat sheet metal parts where speed, nesting efficiency and repeatable profiles matter. It suits trade customers who already have drawings and need parts cut accurately without a long estimating chain.

In Australia this is also commonly searched as fibre laser cutting. Same process, same focus: clean sheet metal components cut from real vector geometry, not screenshots or artwork saved into a PDF.

The instant calculator is best for cut-ready profiles with known material and thickness. Jobs with very tight tolerances, coated materials, heavy engraving notes, finishing requirements or unusual handling can still start online, then move into review before production.

Best-fit work

Where fiber laser cutting makes the most sense.

These pages are written for trade customers, fabricators, sign shops, procurement teams and production buyers who need clarity before sending files.

Use case

Engineering parts

Brackets, plates, guards, shims and repeat production components cut from trade-ready CAD files.

Use case

Signage metalwork

Flat metal letters, backing plates, architectural details and display components for sign shops and installers.

Use case

Batch production

Nested sheet runs where pierce count, cut length and material use need to be efficient from the start.

Material fit

Materials need the right cutting process.

The fastest quote is still the correct quote. Material, thickness, edge expectation and finishing notes determine whether the job should price instantly or be reviewed first.

Material

Mild steel

Good fit for brackets, plates, guards and general fabrication parts.

Material

Stainless steel

Used for clean commercial, architectural and industrial components where edge quality matters.

Material

Aluminium

Useful for signage, panels and lightweight components; material grade and finish should be confirmed.

Material

Brass, copper and coated metals

Can be suitable, but reflective or coated sheets often need review before production.

File rules

What counts as a cut-ready file.

A cut-ready file contains actual vector paths the machine can follow. It is not simply a picture placed into a PDF. This distinction is important because the calculator reads cutting geometry, not visual artwork.

PDF

PDF only works when the cut lines are real vectors.

If a JPEG, phone photo or screenshot is saved as a PDF, it still cannot be priced as a cutting file. Send that through review so we can advise on file prep.

  • Use DXF or DWG wherever possible.
  • Vector PDF can work when it contains real vector cut lines.
  • Keep artwork, engraving, crease and cut operations on clearly named layers.
  • Supply files at 1:1 scale with closed paths and duplicated lines removed.

If the job includes photos, sketches, mixed services, unclear material, finishing, fabrication, painting, welding, 3D printing, installation context or production advice, send the brief through contact instead.

Workflow

From upload to production.

01

Upload the drawing

Use DXF, DWG or a vector PDF with real cut lines at the correct scale.

02

Select metal and thickness

Pricing is built around material, thickness, cut length, pierces and quantity.

03

Check the result

Simple flat profiles can price immediately; complex notes can be flagged for review.

04

Cut, sort and dispatch

Parts are cut, packed and prepared for pickup or suitable delivery.

Quote path

Instant quote where it is clean. Expert review where it matters.

The calculator is the fastest path for clean cutting files. For mixed services, unclear geometry, specialist materials or finish-critical work, the reviewed quote path keeps the job accurate before production starts.

01

The file contains screenshots, photos, missing scale or open paths.

02

The job needs countersinking, bending, welding, painting, tapping, deburring notes or assembly.

03

The material is coated, supplied by the customer, highly reflective or finish-critical.

04

Tiny bridges, dense pierce counts or very fine internal details may affect cut quality or price.

Common questions

Answers before production starts.

Can I get instant pricing for fiber laser cutting?

Yes, for suitable flat sheet metal jobs with DXF, DWG or vector PDF files that contain real cut lines. Complex or finish-critical work can still be reviewed by the team.

Is fibre laser cutting the same as fiber laser cutting?

Yes. Fibre laser cutting is the Australian spelling many customers use for the same sheet metal cutting process. The important part is supplying clean vector cut files and the correct material details.

Can I upload a PDF?

Only if the PDF contains real vector cutting paths. A JPEG, photo or screenshot saved as a PDF is still an image and will need file preparation before it can be priced properly.

What's your minimum order quantity?

One-off parts, prototypes and repeat production runs can all be quoted. Very small jobs still need setup time, so uploading a clean file is the fastest way to see whether the price works.

Do you offer engraving?

Yes. CO2 laser engraving is available for compatible materials such as acrylic and timber, and some jobs can also use marking, printing or finishing depending on the material.

Can you cut metal?

Yes. Fiber laser cutting is used for sheet metals including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium, brass, copper, Colorbond and Corten steel where the material and thickness are suitable.

Do you offer shipping?

Yes. Pickup is available from Botany NSW and freight or delivery can be arranged for suitable jobs. Add the delivery postcode when requesting a quote.
