Laser processing for lightweights
Metals and alloys that have a density of less than 5 g/cm³ are generally referred to as light metals. With their low intrinsic weight and relatively high strength, light metals are primarily used in the aerospace, automotive, medical technology and construction industries. Light metals and their use to reduce the weight of components are becoming increasingly important when it comes to saving energy and protecting the environment.
Light metals in application
Light metals are widely used in the following areas, among others:
- in medical technology due to their very good biocompatibility as implants for hand and foot surgery
- in aerospace as engine components
- in electronics as front panels and device housings
- in the chemical industry as heat exchangers
Individual machining of light metals
We cut, weld, structure and mechanically process light metals according to your individual ideas and wishes. We are able to process your supplied material or offer you the service of purchasing special materials in small quantities without processing them further.
