When it comes to complex metalwork, cutting technology is a game-changer. At New Titan Steel Fabrication LLC, we utilize both laser cutting and waterjet cutting for a wide range of industrial, architectural, and artistic applications. But why both? Each offers distinct advantages depending on the job at hand.
Laser Cutting Fast and Precise
Laser cutting uses a concentrated beam of light to melt or vaporize material. It’s ideal for:
- Thin to medium-thickness metals
- High-volume production
- Intricate patterns
- Clean, sharp edges
Benefits:
- Speed: Extremely fast for repetitive tasks and mass production.
- Detailing: Supports intricate geometric designs with micrometric precision.
- Minimal Waste: Reduced kerf and material loss, making it cost-effective.
- Automation Compatible: Easy to integrate into automated systems.
Laser cutting is commonly used for enclosures, brackets, panels, and signage.
Waterjet Cutting Cold and Clean
Waterjet cutting uses a high-pressure jet of water (often with an abrasive) to slice through virtually any material. This cold-cutting method preserves material properties and reduces deformation.
Ideal For:
- Thick metal slabs (up to 150 mm)
- Heat-sensitive materials like plastics, composites
- Mixed material jobs (coated metals, glass, ceramics)
Benefits:
- No Heat-Affected Zone (HAZ): Avoids distortion and maintains metallurgical integrity.
- Versatility: Cuts everything from stainless steel to granite.
- Precision: Achieves tolerances within ±0.1 mm, suitable for aerospace and medical industries.
Waterjet cutting is preferred for custom architectural screens, decorative panels, and precision industrial components.
Applications at New Titan
- Decorative metal panels for architecture
- Automotive parts and brackets
- Gears, flanges, and mechanical components
- Signage & branding cutouts
- Marine and oilfield parts
Choosing the Right Method
We consult with every client to determine the best cutting technique based on:
- Material type and thickness
- End use of the component
- Desired finish and detail level
- Budget and project timeline
