Why does ShieldCo use laser cutting?
Laser cutting is a process that uses a laser to cut through various materials and is primarily used in industrial fabrication. The laser is focused through a special optical lens and navigated around the workpiece using CNC software to either melt, etch, vaporize, or blow away the specified material area to leave a high-quality finished edge.
The Laser Cutting CNC process allows ShieldCo to take your intricate design and turn it into a high-quality metal art work. Laser Cutting leaves our sign components with a smooth finish on all edges and a professional multidimensional sign with distinctive depth and character.

Laser Cutting Process
We import your vector design files into our advanced cutting software. From there, we carefully adjust cutting settings like speed and power to align with the material and the specific details of your design. A focused laser beam is then guided along the defined paths, cutting through the material with high precision and accuracy.
This method uses intense heat to remove material along the outlined shapes, creating clean and precise edges. The laser’s controlled movement allows for intricate cuts and detailed patterns to be executed flawlessly. These detailed cuts become a seamless part of your project with no need for additional finishing steps.
FAQs
The cost of laser cutting varies depending on several factors, including the size, complexity of the design, material type and thickness, and any additional customization you require. Simply reach out with your ideas, and we’ll work with you to craft a stunning piece that fits your vision and budget.
Laser cutting uses a focused beam of light to cleanly cut through metal, creating smooth, crisp edges without the need for additional tooling. This method allows us to achieve unparalleled accuracy—whether it’s for fine details, sharp geometric patterns, or complex custom shapes.
Once the design has been finalized and the laser cutting is complete, the raw edges are smoothed to perfection to ensure a polished look and safe handling. From here, your piece moves into the next stages of production, such as sanding, powder-coating, or assembly, which bring out its full aesthetic and durability.
Laser cutting works with wood, acrylic, plastics, paper, fabric, leather, and some metals like steel and aluminum. Certain materials, like PVC, should be avoided due to harmful fumes.
