What material thicknesses do you work with?

We machine a full range of laser cutting shims designed to cover the most common needs in mechanical engineering, carpentry, industrial design and functional prototyping. Available shims vary by material and are selected to ensure process stability, cutting quality and immediate stock availability. This allows us to offer fast production times and consistent results on all types of orders.

As for pickled iron, a material widely used for its affordability and versatility, we offer thicknesses from 1 mm to 12 mm, with availability in: 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 mm. This makes it ideal for light and medium-heavy carpentry work, structural supports, frames and components for industry.

In the case of AISI 304 stainless steel, a material prized for its corrosion resistance and good finish, we have available the same thicknesses as pickled iron: 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 mm. This steel is suitable for food, medical, aesthetic applications or where high mechanical performance is required in aggressive environments.

For aluminum 5754, an extremely corrosion-resistant and lightweight alloy often used in the nautical, automotive and aesthetic realizations, we process the most popular thicknesses in the industry: 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4 and 5 mm. These are ideal shims for covers, panels, brackets and casings.

OT63 brass, used mainly for decorative components, accessories, design and small parts, is laser cut in the two most common and functional thicknesses for this type of alloy: 1 and 1.5 mm. Brass offers excellent cutting quality and is particularly suitable for making precision details and visible elements, where aesthetics also matter.

All materials and thicknesses listed are handled in-house and subjected to dimensional and flatness checks to ensure accurate and stable results at every stage of machining. If you have special requirements outside these ranges, we can evaluate compatibility with our equipment and technical conditions on a case-by-case basis.

Our technical department is always available to recommend the most suitable thickness for your project, also depending on the geometries involved, the subsequent processing (such as bending or welding) and the expected mechanical load on the finished component.
