Precision Laser Cutting as the Front End of Complete Fabrication
Rapidsheetfab provides precision laser cutting as the front end of complete sheet metal fabrication. We are not a commodity cutting shop. We are an engineering-driven manufacturing partner that combines cutting with bending, welding, hardware insertion, finishing (via qualified partners), and assembly so OEMs can consolidate suppliers and accelerate NPI-to-production transitions.
Typical parts include enclosures, cabinets, chassis, panels, brackets, frames, bases, and welded assemblies for industrial equipment, automation and robotics, electronics and instruments, medical and laboratory devices, energy equipment, and machinery.
Fiber Laser Cutting Capability
Machine & Material Specifications
- Machines: Five fiber laser cutters
- Max sheet size: up to 2000 × 4000 mm
- Tolerances: ±0.10 mm typical, drawing-dependent
- Edge quality: Clean, consistent cuts with downstream deburring, grinding, and brushing available
Materials
- Stainless steel: SUS304, SUS316, SUS430 (up to 20 mm)

Feature Capability
Small holes, slots, complex profiles, tabs, and cutouts. When louvers, formed features, or dense perforations are needed, we can switch to CNC punching or combine both processes for best results.
Integrated Sheet Metal Fabrication
We streamline your build by keeping multi-process work under one roof.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is your maximum part size for laser cutting?
Up to 2000 × 4000 mm sheet capacity.
What thickness can you laser cut?
Stainless up to 20 mm, carbon steel up to 25 mm, aluminum up to 16 mm, with copper and brass capability depending on thickness.
What tolerances can you hold?
Typical laser cutting tolerance is ±0.10 mm, drawing-dependent. Bending is typically ±0.20–0.30 mm and holes ±0.10–0.20 mm, subject to design and process.
Can you finish parts?
