Chiggo provides various laser cutting technologies, each is specially matched to different materials to achieve the best possible outcomes. We offer high-quality services for both metal and plastic laser cutting. Our laser cutting machines can handle material thicknesses ranging from 0.02"(0.5mm) to 1.0"(25.4mm), achieve a minimum feature size of 1x1mm, and produce very narrow kerfs, some as small as a fraction of a millimeter.
CO2 Laser Cutting offers high-quality cuts with a smooth finish on non-metal materials such as wood, acrylic, and plastics. Also, it can cut through thin metals.
Fiber laser cutting provides precise and efficient cutting for thin to medium-thick materials. It has high electrical efficiency, can safely cut reflective metals like copper and gold without damage, and requires low maintenance, popular in metal fabrication.
Nd:YAG/Nd:YVO₄ lasers support both pulsed and continuous operations. In pulsed mode, they are effective for cutting or marking hard or thick materials and offer precise cutting or marking with minimal thermal impact. This technology is particularly suited for intricate and detailed tasks, such as manufacturing medical devices, micro-welding, and precision engraving.
Laser cutting, with its precision, speed, and flexibility, brings numerous benefits across many industries. Chiggo’s laser cutting service can deliver customized solutions,help streamline production, reduce costs.
Laser cutting, controlled by Computer Numerical Control (CNC) systems, is highly repeatable. Because it's a non-contact cutting process, the workpiece does not distort due to mechanical or thermal forces. These allow for exceptional precision in dimensions, with tolerances of ±0.004" (±0.1 mm).
To achieve the best possible results while minimizing errors and material waste. Here are some key guidelines to consider when preparing designs for laser cutting:
The smallest size for a part should be 6.3 mm (0.25 in.) to ensure it can be handled and cut accurately.
