  2. Laser cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_cutting

    For sheet metal cutting, the focal length is usually 1.5–3 inches (38–76 mm). [7] [8] Advantages of laser cutting over mechanical cutting include easier work holding and reduced contamination of workpiece (since there is no cutting edge which can become contaminated by the material or contaminate the material). Precision may be better since ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal

    The metal is heated and burnt by the laser beam, cutting the metal sheet. [20] The quality of the edge can be mirror smooth and a precision of around 0.1 mm (0.0039 in) can be obtained. Cutting speeds on thin 1.2 mm (0.047 in) sheet can be as high as 25 m (82 ft) per minute.

  4. Metal fabrication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_fabrication

    Metal fabrication is the creation of metal structures by cutting, bending and assembling processes. It is a value-added [1] process involving the creation of machines, parts, and structures from various raw materials. Typically, a fabrication shop bids on a job, usually based on engineering drawings, and if awarded the contract, builds the product.

  5. Laser metal deposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_Metal_Deposition

    Laser metal deposition. (Redirected from Laser Metal Deposition) Laser metal deposition (LMD) is an additive manufacturing process in which a feedstock material (typically a powder) is melted with a laser and then deposited onto a substrate. [1] A variety of pure metals and alloys can be used as the feedstock, as well as composite materials ...

  6. Photochemical machining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photochemical_machining

    Photochemical machining. Photochemical machining (PCM), also known as photochemical milling or photo etching, is a chemical milling process used to fabricate sheet metal components using a photoresist and etchants to corrosively machine away selected areas. This process emerged in the 1960s as an offshoot of the printed circuit board industry.

  7. Nesting (process) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nesting_(process)

    Nesting (process) In manufacturing industry, nesting refers to the process of laying out cutting patterns to minimize the raw material waste. [1] Examples include manufacturing parts from flat raw material such as sheet metal, glass sheets, cloth rolls, cutting parts from steel bars, etc. Such process can also be applied to additive ...
