Precision laser cutting, clean edges and fine detail
CNC laser cutting for parts that need a clean edge, a tight outline, or a fast turnaround on low volumes. If you can draw it flat, we can cut it.
In summary
Custom Metal Designs runs CNC laser cutting at its shop in Central Florida, near Orlando, cutting flat sheet metal to a drawing with a clean, square edge and fine feature detail. Laser is the right process for complex outlines, one-offs and short runs, and parts where edge quality matters, because there is no tooling to make first.
Laser-cut parts feed straight into CMD's own brake forming, welding, and assembly, so a cut part becomes a finished part without leaving the building. CMD is ISO 9001:2015 certified and has run contract fabrication since 2005.
Key facts
- Clean edges and fine detail, no tooling required
- Carbon steel, stainless, and aluminum
- One-offs through production runs
- Feeds straight into in-house forming and welding

What laser cutting is right for
Laser cutting shines when the geometry is complex or the quantity is low. Because it needs no dedicated tooling, a one-off prototype or a short run costs about the same per feature as it does to program, so you are not paying to make a tool you will use once.
It handles carbon steel, stainless, and aluminum, and holds a clean edge that often needs no secondary finishing before welding or coating. For exact material grades, thickness, and sheet size, send us your drawing and we'll confirm.
