The parts I ordered came faster than a local service that does the same thing, even with shipping. I had one issue with a bent part and they responded with lots of options for remedy. They remade the part and had it sent quickly. The response to my issue came on a Saturday as well, no time lost for weekends. Long story short, they are quick, better priced, and killer customer service.

Easy to deal with, definitely going to be doing more buisness with SCS 🤘🏻😎

Having a part made in a week from a sketch on graph paper is really quite impressive, especially after three machine shops said they couldn’t do it.

Super quick turnaround, and came with a sticker and some sour patch kids 🙂

I had some small steel parts laser cut by SCS from 030 mild steel for a flying model I am building. The parts were cut accurately and cleanly and fit the model perfectly and according to my design. Processing and shipping were extremely fast – withing days of sending the DXF files. Top marks here.

SCS has become an asset to my business. Really impressive what they can do for a very reasonable price and lightning fast!

What are best practices for minimum geometry?

Make sure all of the geometry in your laser cut part is at least 50% of the material thickness. As an example, if your material is 0.100” thick, the smallest hole you could expect to cut would be 0.050” in diameter.

Any interior geometry smaller than 50% of the material thickness will not be cut accurately by the laser, and the integrity of the design will be lost in the machining process. We want to make sure your parts come out perfectly, so we provide all the resources necessary for you to help us make that happen. Our online laser cutting guidelines, max/min material charts, and our support team will give you all the additional information you need.

What are common problems to look for in my files?

Before you upload your files to SendCutSend, make sure to check for these common problems. As an example, if your material is 0.100” thick, the smallest hole you could expect to cut would be 0.050” in diameter. A safe rule of thumb would be to keep all geometry greater than 1/2 material thickness, and

What are your material size limits?

The minimum and maximum part size we offer changes depending on the material and its thickness. We have put together a chart broken down into four categories (Composites, Metals, Plastics, and Wood) so you can see all this information in the same place.

What materials are available for tapping?

We currently have a variety of sheet metal and plastic materials available for tapping. You can quickly confirm which materials are available for tapping at our Processing Maximums and Minimums page.

What are tabs? How can they be removed?

We use tabs to keep your parts from falling out of the parent sheet during laser cutting, waterjet cutting, or CNC routing. Micro Tabs in Laser and Waterjet Cut Materials For laser cut and waterjet cut materials, we cut a bit of additional material about 0.010”-0.015” thick on the outside of your parts to

What are your material maximum and minimum sizes?

Materials behave differently during machining, with capabilities and limitations that vary between materials and their thicknesses. That’s why it’s important to understand the tolerance of specific materials when designing your projects to be laser cut. Before uploading your design to our website check out our general maximum and minimum limitations for all of our materials, and the maximum and minimum material limitations for post processing (bending, tapping, and deburring).

How do I order parts on your website?

We make ordering parts fast and convenient. For a step-by-step guide, check out this video or the steps listed below. Step 1: Head to our homepage and click Get an Instant Quote or navigate to our quote page. Step 2: Drag and drop or select your part files. We accept DXF, DWG, EPS, and

What is the size of your laser kerf?

We compensate for all kerf and line offsets in your design. We change the beam position based on the geometry of the part, and we are able to hold +/- .005″ tolerance or better on most materials. We take care of everything so you don’t have to. Our fiber laser beam diameter varies between roughly 0.006″ and 0.010” depending on the material being cut, but you do not need to make any adjustments to your design to compensate for the kerf in the laser cutter.
