What are the benefits of holding tight tolerance when cutting parts?  Manufacturing, especially over the past 60 years, has improved immensely when it comes to standardization and improved product quality. The ability to increase their levels of efficiency and provide higher levels of manufactured parts results in greater customer satisfaction and increased revenue. As technology […]

Like all manufacturing businesses, the cost of goods is determined by many factors. For a precision laser cutting service this is also true. Every project will require a review of the details given by the customer. It is vital for both parties to have clear lines of communication so the best cost can be offered. […]

How does A-laser work with you? From development to high-volume production If you live and work in Silicon Valley, the phrase “Start-Up” is common in business communication. The Bay Area is still a hotbed for the creation of new technologies and new ways to advance our lives. Start-ups are a great collection of individuals, who […]

Laser Cutting Thickness Limits for Different Materials: Kapton: Kapton, a polyimide film, can typically be laser cut up to thicknesses ranging from 0.001 to 0.005 inches (25 to 125 microns). This material is often used in electronics, aerospace, and automotive industries for its excellent thermal and electrical insulation properties. PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone): PEEK is […]

New Tech: Laser Cutting Reflective Materials We are thrilled to announce that we are now open for orders on our latest laser processing machine and its new capabilities. This exciting development follows the teaser that A-Laser released at the end of summer, hinting at these innovations.. A-Laser recently invested significantly in cutting-edge technology, a direct […]

Innovation through Iteration Research and Development, a term commonly referred to as R&D, is the central process in which new advances are made. We see this throughout history, when changes to the environment challenged man to advance the skills for hunting, for changing ways to procure sustenance, to better the way to communicate and share […]

Manufacturing Copper Parts with Lasers  The name copper is derived from its Latin name cuprum. It is part of group 11 on the periodic table of elements. It has an atomic number of 29 and a symbol of Cu. It is called a transition metal. These types of metals are malleable and ductile and are […]
