How to Design Sheet Metal Parts for Clean Laser Cut Edges?

Designing for laser cutting means achieving burr-free edges without secondary finishing. With experience in precision components, proper material and feature sizing prevents costly deburring operations. 6061 aluminum (1-6mm), 304 stainless steel (1-8mm), and mild steel (1-10mm) produce the cleanest laser cut edges without deburring. Maintain hole spacing ≥1.5x material thickness, avoid slots narrower than material […]
