Over 7000 Laser Parts Shipped – In Just Over 2 Weeks of Receiving Order

Astro Custom Laser Cutting
Recently Astro Engineering was contacted for a large order of laser and formed parts that needed to be shipped in a tight time frame. The customer supplied the prints for the job which consisted of nearly 8000 parts made of 16 gauge mild steel. There were 8 different parts needed, with quantities ranging from 40 to 2000 parts of each.

For this large laser job, the auto load/unload system on the laser was well utilized. Several press brakes were used to complete all of the forming. At the customer’s request, we also removed the laser scale from all edges to ensure good success of the parts being powder coated. Our staff did a great job at keeping it moving quickly and to spec.

Within 2 weeks of receiving the order, we began shipping. It was 5 truckloads of outgoing product finished in less than 3 weeks of receiving the order. 100% of the parts were correct and accepted.

While our custom laser cutting services is beginning to fill up as more are finding out about our new capacity, we still have time available and pride ourselves on getting your parts turned quickly. Call 800-959-0850 Astro for your next laser needs.

Astro Engineering Increases Laser Cutting Capacity

We are excited to announce the purchase of a Mazak Super Turbo 2500 Laser with a load/unload system

Faster cutting + Thicker metal =  Lower cost laser parts, Faster turn-around, Larger variety.


This increases our capacity for laser cutting services both in volume due to higher speed cutting, as well as increased thickness of metal that can be cut with the added power. We now can cut thickness of up to 3/8" Stainless Steel, 3/4" Carbon Steel, and 1/4" Aluminum. The photo of the laser parts shows a few laser cut pieces we have done in the past. Our newer laser is in the final stages of installation and we plan to be cutting parts on the new machine by the second week of September. The automated load/unload system greatly enhances our volume output and allows lights-out operation for more cost savings. Send us your project for a free quote today!
