Thermal Cutting Services – Serving Clients Nationwide
At Fox Ridge Steel, there are a few different processes available for doing this. Thermal cutting uses heat as an energy source to turn the solid metal into liquid. Once the metal is liquified, the molten metal is blown away from the solid metal, and that produces the desired metal cut. Thermal cutting is incredibly efficient and fast. That’s what makes it one of the best ways to cut metal.
Fox Ridge provides laser cutting service for a wide range of metal types. Our CO2 and solid state lasers can offer cutting services for both metal sheets and metal plates up 1”x72”x144”. In comparison to other thermal cutting processes, laser cutting has the smallest heat affected zone and the most precise cut.
