From worldlasers.com

Engineers and scientists are always engaged in producing better polymeric materials variety by manipulating the molecular structure that affects the final polymer produced. Manufacturers and processors introduce various fillers, reinforcements and additives into the base polymers, expanding product possibilities. However, for shaping polymers into many of the useful precision items for engineering and industrial use laser technology is increasingly being tried. The experimental research conducted in these areas has provided ample responses to the doubts and questions that a large number of industrial operators ask themselves when they have to decide which laser cutting technology to adopt for their production cycle. The cost of laser technology is still extremely high, though it is constantly falling, and consequently its use is justified only if the quality of the end product is decisively better and if the process becomes more reliable. Laser applications in plastic materials cutting have grown considerably in many industries since it is now possible to achieve a superior quality finished product along with greater process reliability.

Products & Services
Cutting services use a variety of cutting methods to fashion materials into predefined shapes or sizes.
Fillers and reinforcements are additives used to extend, strengthen and/or modify plastics, composites, adhesives, coatings and other materials.
Laser beam analyzers are used to determine the quality of a laser beam.
Shaping and slotting machines have a mounted cutting tool with a movable table so that metal can be moved back and forth for shaping, slotting, or cutting.
Die cutting services use a variety of die cutting methods to fashion materials into predefined shapes or sizes.
