FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between laser cutting and CNC punching?
Laser cutting uses heat to cut through metal, while CNC punching uses mechanical force to punch shapes and holes. Punching is often faster for repetitive patterns and more cost-effective for simpler geometries.
What kind of design files do you accept?
We accept CAD files (.dxf, .dwg, .step). If you don’t have a file, we can help you design your part.
How thick of a sheet can you punch?
The TruPunch 3000 can handle up to .125″ (1/8 inch) thick for steel and aluminum. Contact us if you have thicker material or special needs.
Can I order just one part or is there a minimum order?
We welcome both prototypes and bulk orders. Whether you need one custom piece or thousands, we’ve got you covered.
Do you offer any finishing services?
Yes. We offer deburring, powder coating, welding, and assembly depending on your needs.
