Laser Cutting in Halifax: FAQ

What materials can be laser cut in Canada?
Canadian laser cutting shops process mild steel up to 25 mm, stainless steel up to 20 mm, aluminum up to 15 mm, copper and brass up to 6 mm, titanium, acrylic, polycarbonate, plywood, MDF, and various composites. Fiber lasers handle metals most efficiently, while CO2 lasers are preferred for non-metallic materials.
How much does laser cutting cost in Canada?
Laser cutting is typically priced by machine time, with rates ranging from $150 - $300 per hour depending on the laser type and material. Simple flat parts in mild steel can cost as little as $5 - $20 each. Pricing drops significantly at volume as setup costs are amortized.
What is the difference between fiber and CO2 laser cutting?
Fiber lasers operate at a 1.06 micron wavelength and excel at cutting thin to medium metals - especially reflective materials like aluminum, copper, and brass. They are faster and more energy-efficient on metals. CO2 lasers operate at 10.6 microns and are better suited for non-metals (acrylic, wood, fabric) and thick mild steel.
What is the fastest turnaround for laser cutting in Canada?
Same-day and next-day laser cutting is available from many Canadian providers for simple flat parts with standard materials in stock. Complex projects with bending, welding, or finishing typically require 3 - 7 business days. Rush service is available at most shops.
