Ohio Custom Laser Cutting for Prototyping and Production
Tight tolerance precision laser cutting of material up to 1” thick on a 5’ x 10’ cutting table.
Precision Laser Cutting: Where Technology Meets Craftsmanship
Midwest Metal Fabrications doesn't just cut metal, we transform your ideas into precisely crafted components. We specialize in delivering tight-tolerance laser cutting solutions to meet the demands of industrial and OEM clients. From the heart of Ohio, we've built our reputation on delivering exceptional laser cutting services. We serve companies with component-level precision, consistent repeatability, and responsive lead times.
Laser Cutting Capabilities and Specifications
Our Mitsubishi 4,000 kW CO₂ laser system is engineered for consistent, high-speed cutting of ferrous and non-ferrous metals:
- Cutting Tolerance: ±0.005”
- Kerf Width: 0.004”
- Work Envelope: 60” x 120” (5’ x 10’)
- Table Changer: Automated dual-pallet for continuous operation
- Material Handling: Integrated automation for optimized cycle times
But numbers only tell part of the story. What truly sets us apart is our team's dedication to getting every detail right for your project.
Supported Materials
We specialize in:
- Carbon Steel — up to 1.000”
- Stainless Steel — up to 0.500”
- Aluminum — up to 0.500”
Whether you're in automotive, electrical, automation, or machine building, we understand that each industry has its unique challenges. That's why we've invested in equipment and expertise that delivers the intricate components you need.
Optimized for Engineering and Prototyping Environments
Our laser platform supports both low-volume prototyping and mid-to-high volume production, offering dimensional stability and clean edge quality for parts with tight geometrical tolerances.
We integrate seamlessly with downstream operations including:
- Press Braking — for precision forming
- CNC Shearing and Cutting — for pre-cut stock
- MIG/TIG Welding — for assembly and enclosure work
- CNC Machining — for secondary ops and complex features
- Metal Finishing — for aesthetic or functional coating
This allows us to serve as a single-source partner for fabricated parts from flat layout to finished product.
