Laser Cut Sheet Metal Filter
Sheet metal generally refers to metal materials in sheet form up to 1/4" thick. Plain steel is more common but sheet metal can also be aluminum, brass, stainless steel, bronze, silver, gold or any other metal.
Sheet metal is one of the most common raw materials in manufacturing for several reasons:
- It can be cut at low cost by many methods including shearing, laser cutting, punching, waterjet, etc.
- Parts can be bent into numerous useful configurations
- Minimal material is used in comparison with parts made of block material
Parts that you might otherwise think must be made from block material can often be redesigned to adapt to sheet metal form. Tricks to consider include:
- Bending instead of milling
- Stacking sheets of same shape to achieve the desired thickness.
- Stacking sheets of different shapes to build up the desired 3D shape.
- Bolting multiple sheet parts together.
- Combining sheet metal processes with other processes such as milling a recess in a laser cut sheet.

"Just a short note to applaud this innovative concept! I may even be able to bring some of my long-dreamed about, but never attempted projects into the real world. This is an outstanding service. Incredible! Fantastic!"
