Our Expert Aluminium laser cutting

In its pure form, aluminium is easily worked and possesses a high level of corrosion resistance but its low strength reduces the applications for which it is suitable. When alloyed, aluminium becomes an extremely versatile and widely used material, offering improved strength, corrosion resistance, ductility, workability, weldability, and machinability.

Maximum Sizes

The maximum sheet size for most materials is 3000mm x 1500mm, a 10mm border is required around the outside, so the maximum part size we can cut is 2980mm x 1480mm. There are exceptions to this rule however and these are marked in the materials tables.

1050 Aluminium

1000 series aluminium is 99% pure, with high corrosion resistance and ductility. 1050 is ideal for sheet metal work, chemical equipment, food containers, architectural flashings, and lamp reflectors.

5251 Aluminium

5000 series aluminium, mainly alloyed with magnesium, offers strength and corrosion resistance. 5251 is ideal for marine structures, aircraft parts, vehicle panels, containers, and welded structures.

5083 Aluminium

High-strength, non-treatable alloy, excels in extreme environments with superior corrosion resistance and weld strength. Ideal for shipbuilding, rail cars, vehicle bodies, and pressure vessels.

6082 Aluminium

6082 aluminium, the strongest 6000 series alloy, offers excellent corrosion resistance and structural strength. Ideal for machining and used in bridges, cranes, transport, ore skips, and industrial containers.

Aluminium Laser cutting

Minimum & maximum thicknesses

We cut aluminium cut to size from 0.5mm sheet up to 20mm thick plate. Whether it’s a prototype batch or repeat production of laser cut aluminium parts, our Trumpf 12KW and 24KW fibre lasers hold tolerances to ±0.25mm as standard.

Protective Film – Plastic Coating

Aluminium between the thicknesses of 0.9mm and 3mm can be ordered with a protective plastic coating which is specifically designed for fibre laser cutting. This will help keep the A face of the product scratch free and will give some protection during the fabrication process.
