Materials
Laser Processing Technology is capable of
processing a wide variety of materials. Our Research and
Development team is constantly working to develop new methods of
cutting materials, and we are always willing to test your
materials for laserability.
About Our Materials . . .
The following table lists the more
common materials that we're capable of processing. If you
require processing on a more exotic material, please contact us
for additional information. If we are not capable of processing your
material, we may have some ideas to help you find the best
solution.

Inventory of Standard Materials
| Please note
that these materials are the standard items that LPT has in
stock on a regular basis. If other sizes, thicknesses or
surface finish are required, LPT can obtain the required
materials and/or stock it for our customer's specific
applications. If you have a special need for custom
materials, please contact our sales department.
LPT's qualified vendors for 96%
alumina substrates are CoorsTek, Ceramtec and Kyocera.

We process jobs
quickly, precisely, on a reasonable cost basis.
Ability to prototype or
manufacture small quantity jobs without the expense and
lead-time required for complex tools, dies or punches.
Character generation (laser
marking) is available for serialization or identification
with a part number, name or logo on almost any surface.
Typical thickness for various
of mild steel and alloys range from .001" to .078". In
plastics or acrylics, thicknesses of up to .500" can be
laser cut or drilled.
Standard tolerances of ±.005"
are easily achieved, although, depending on the thickness of
the material, some taper in the cut will be present. |
