Professional Brass Cutting Services
Within industrial applications, brass is one of the most commonly used metals that is renowned for its aesthetic appeal, thermal conductivity, and dynamic ability. At The Laser Cutting Co., we have garnered over 40 years of experience in metal profiling and developing an in-depth understanding of the unique requirements when cutting ‘yellow metals’.
The reflective properties of brass prove a great challenge when cut with traditional CO2 lasers, diminishing the ability to achieve clean cuts. By investing in the latest cutting-edge technology, our fibre laser machines can achieve precise cuts on up to 20mm thick sheets without compromising quality.
Utilising a fleet of fibre laser cutting machines and automated systems, we ensure seamless workflow and rapid procurement from design to delivery, supported by our smart design production facilities.

The Benefits of Brass Cutting by The Laser Cutting Co.
Precision and Accuracy
Innovative laser cutting technology allows for highly precise cuts and detailed designs without distortion. This high calibre level of quality guarantees exceptional performance and complex designs, minimising the need for further adjustments or rework.
Versatility
Laser cutting machines are adept at handling various thicknesses and ductile metals such as brass. This flexibility makes it suitable for a dynamic range of applications across varying thicknesses and grades. Laser cutting can easily accommodate different project specifications.
Clean and Burr-Free Cuts
Laser cutting has revolutionised the industry, offering impeccably smooth clean edges without imperfections. This drastically reduces the need for additional finishing processes and effectively cuts labour expenses, enhancing the overall efficiency of the fabrication process.
Aesthetic Quality
The non-contact process of laser cutting ensures that the surface is not at risk of superficial damage and contamination. This is particularly instrumental in preserving the aesthetic appeal of brass and protecting the material's integrity.
Durability
Brass maintains exceptional structural integrity while laser cutting produces intricate and complex designs to a high precision. This is ideal where both aesthetic and functional durability are critical in the project, particularly for technical components such as electrical, automotive, and decorative parts.
Cost Effectiveness
Brass has exceptional durability and minimal maintenance requirements, resulting in long-term cost savings. The capability of automation allows for an increase of mass production within rapid lead times, eliminating material waste and offering a more economical solution over time.

Cutting Edge Quality
We shroud the laser in nitrogen gases, preventing oxidisation and ensuring a clean, blemish-free cut with no discolouration, ready for welding without any extra machining. Brass can be laser cut up to 5mm and maintain a smooth cut edge.
Brass Cutting Grades
We can laser cut a range of brass grades and alloys. Below is a list of the most commonly asked for:
- CZ108
- CZ112
If the grade you require is not on this list, we should still be able to source and cut it for you. Please contact us with your preferred grade and requirements.
