Streamlining Processes, Delivering Faster Turnarounds, and Enhancing Quality

One of the newest capabilities in our Hartford, CT facilities is our laser tube-cutting services. Compared to slower, more traditional methods such as sawing and drilling, laser tube cutting stands out as one of the fastest, most efficient techniques available today. 

CAMM Metals’ laser tube cutting capabilities stand out among other shops quite simply because most fabricators do not offer this service. It’s a highly specialized process that requires significant upfront investment and in-depth training to gain expertise in this method. At CAMM Metals, we’re committed to bringing this productive technology in-house to provide unparalleled service to our customers.

The Benefits of Laser Tube Cutting

The CAMM Metals team decided to incorporate laser tube cutting into our operations at the beginning of 2024, and it’s already proving to be a game-changer. Our previous methods were time-consuming and labor-intensive, leading to production times we weren’t proud of and challenges in training new personnel.

Laser tube cutting allows us to streamline our processes, deliver faster turnaround times, and maintain exceptional quality. The benefits of laser tube cutting have been evident since the first day we implemented this method:

• Significant time savings: What used to take two hours of setup and ten minutes of labor now requires only 30 minutes of setup and a mere 40 seconds of labor! These time savings are staggering!

• Superior quality: Not only does this process take a fraction of the time, but it also yields higher quality cuts than antiquated sawing and drilling methods. 

Versatility from Industry to Industry

While laser tube cutting is ideal for the aerospace and machine-building industries, its applications extend to other spaces.

At CAMM Metals, we cater to a diverse range of industries, leveraging our expertise in steel, stainless steel, and aluminum fabrication. Whether it’s a small component or a larger structure, our capabilities cover a wide spectrum of needs.
